Running Lean
MLC Software keeps a competitive advantage with low overhead
Nov 30, 2019
When MLC Software was created, we did it without external investors. We wanted to create a software company for ourselves, maintain full creative and executive control, and we wanted to do it with minimal risk.

Our solution to reach our goal was to keep overhead very low, even non-existant if possible.

How we maintain low overhead:
  • Fully Remote
    Did you know facilities fees are the largest fixed cost for a small business? Being fully remote, we don't pay expensive rent and utilities overhead.
  • Effective Time Management
    We have a 15 minute meeting policy. All of our internal meetings are usually 15 minutes or less.
  • Lean Enterprise Solutions
    We're a GSuite company. GSuite and supporting infrastructure cost a fraction of some competitors.
  • Experts At Our Roles
    We are all 10+ year experienced Senior level employees. We don't take risks with green employees, or spend resources training beginners.
  • Open Source Development Platform
    We use all open source tools and don't have licensing fees. Our tools are backed and used by companies like Microsoft, Google, and Facebook so there's no sacrifice in quality either.

Now that we've grown, our lean operating costs allow us to offer high quality software at a low cost.
