Technical founders are a special type. They have deep experience creating products and solutions that make an enormous impact on their customer's businesses. It takes a certain skill set to manage such complexity and a real love for problem solving. This skillset rarely overlaps with the creative and communication skills needed to sustainably market a technology business, and many founders struggle to make it past the point of business generated from their immediate network of contacts. Scaling up takes more than that.
Big gains come with big effort and big effort takes a persistent long term dedication and focus. Aesop's fable taught us that it takes humility and perseverance to win the big races, and that's where we come in.
Tortoise and Hare Software is a Jacksonville based web development and digital marketing solutions provider founded on principles learned from the fable of The Tortoise and The Hare. We know it's slow and steady that wins the race and we bring a mentality of getting one percent better every day to our clients.
We work primarily with B2B technology firms such as managed IT service providers (MSPs), Cybersecurity firms, and SaaS companies to craft and execute on digital strategies that drive their business forward.









The first thing that will jump out at you in our digital solutions are the clean crisp look and lightning speed. Life’s too short to look at a loading screen on your mobile phone. But the speed doesn’t end there. We know that many business owners today don’t want a technology product, they want a technology partner. That’s why we focus on prompt customer support and take a proactive approach to communication and understand your business to make recommendations that help you achieve your goals. We also realize that great digital strategies starts with communication and education. We do our best to present an air of professionalism and service from your first call to your initial quote. Just another way we get out to a fast start.

We help technical founders move up-market and build the long term success they deserve.
Prosperity is one of our core values here at Tortoise and Hare. We believe that every American can achieve the state of health, wealth, and happiness that they desire through the development of internal accountability, a dedication to self improvement, and sharing of their success to improve the lives of others in their sphere of influence.
One of the foundations of prosperity is a commitment to lifelong learning and the quest for knowledge. Knowledge leads to wisdom, a sense of peace, and confidence that can’t be obtained through other means. Knowledge is also one of the key pillars of delivering excellence in business, but it enriches lives on a personal level as well.
Humanity has an amazing and unique ability to pass down knowledge obtained from many lifetimes of experience that came before us. The amount of study handed down from the generations before us in your average prescription pill that enriches so many of our lives is often taken for granted. We want to continue the tradition of enriching the lives of those that come after us through the process of apprenticeship. In many ways we all have a duty to learn from the sacrifices and wisdom of our ancestors by studying previous and current masters of a craft.
Digital marketing and software development aren't all that different from carpentry or other physical incarnation of craftsmanship. Although it’s harder to understand and appreciate from an outsiders perspective than a beautiful house, true craftsmen (and craftswomen!) derive a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment from a job well done rather than external validation. We here at Tortoise and Hare take pride in our work and derive satisfaction from delivering outstanding end results.
We spend our day to day lives helping people while running the business of Tortoise and Hare Software, so we balance out our people contributions with environmental conversation efforts and the combating of climate change through our philanthropy. We love to support our cousins in the sea with our annual Sea Turtle nest adoption campaign.
