Stix and Schnarr rented a big house with an indoor pool, had some buddies move in, and lived the high life. \u201cWe thought we\u2019d reached it. This was the mecca.\u201d Schnarr says.<\/p>\n<p>But they kept being asked the same question: Will you ever link these separate regions together?In those days, it was impossible. The service would have to go through Bell, making it too expensive. \u201cThen along comes the internet.\u201d Schnarr says.<\/p>\n<p>Always poised to embrace the latest technology, Stix and Schnarr scoured the U.S. for parts, made a voice-over-internet-protocol (VoIP) box, and became the second people in the world to announce they had channeled a call via the internet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was terrible quality, but we were dancing because it worked,\u201d Schnarr says. \u201cNot only would it allow us to expand, but it would lower our costs. It wasn\u2019t awesome, but our plan was to go free or for $10 unlimited.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Again, they decided to start with a freemium model. But this time they needed someone with deep pockets to fund the infrastructure. Labatt jumped at the chance, and together they created the Labatt Blue Line.<\/p>\n<p>It was a huge success \u2013 gaining 340,000 customers in 14 months \u2013 and in the end, that\u2019s what killed it. So many people were using the line that Labatt could no longer afford the three-cents-per-call deal it had struck.<\/p>\n<p>So in 2000, the founders again turned it into a paid service. A year after that, they sold the company and decided to move on with their lives.<\/p>\n<p><b>The bug bites again<\/b><\/p>\n<p>After three months, Stix and Schnarr were bored. They also felt like they hadn\u2019t accomplished all of their goals. \u201cWe felt we had learned so much about how to compete against the big telco brands in Canada that we had a strategic advantage if we were to do it again,\u201d Stix says. \u00a0So they entered the fray and joined forces with another old business friend, Mike Brown.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_420\" style=\"width: 299px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/rtioe.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-420\" class=\" wp-image-420 \" alt=\"rtioe\" src=\"http:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/rtioe.png\" width=\"289\" height=\"211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/rtioe.png 482w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/rtioe-300x218.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-420\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jody, John and Mike Brown<\/p><\/div>\n<p>They didn\u2019t want to use anyone else\u2019s networks, though. In order to do that, they needed the CRTC designation of Competitive Local-Exchange Carrier (CLEC), the highest certification available.<\/p>\n<p>It was an arduous process, especially for the fly-by-the-seat-of-their-pants duo used to pivoting at a moment\u2019s notice. But they secured the certification, bought a system they could deploy across the country, and also launched a dial-up internet company in order to meet CLEC requirements to have a trafficked network.<\/p>\n<p>Again, they went for the jugular on pricing. Dial-up internet was $20 to $25 a month back then. Fibernetics offered it for $2.95, and quickly became the fastest growing dial-up company in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>They also launched traditional telecom services in order to secure a core base. Fibernetics now offers home-phone bundles, high-speed internet, and international long distance minutes, \u201cpriced lower than our competition, always.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe learned that a free customer, if marketed to correctly and had the right services and value shown to them, a certain percentage would leave the free service and take our paid service,\u201d Stix says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe free service accumulates customers, aggregates a large database of customers, instills them with goodwill, allows them to get used to your network and your business, and you can walk them up the ladder.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompanies nowadays, that are large telecom companies in their own right, buy facilities from Fibernetics to operate their business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>The end of the common phone<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Today, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fibernetics.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fibernetics<\/a> is betting that old-fashioned telephone technology won\u2019t exist within a decade. Everything will be data.<\/p>\n<p>So, again, the company is embracing the future: Voice is being erased from its offerings. \u201cIf you control the pipe into the house or business, it\u2019s all going to be about data.\u00a0 Voice is just going to be part of data.\u201d Schnarr says.<\/p>\n<p>There are 26 million mobile phones in Canada. In 2011, Canadians paid $10 billion in voice charges, Stix says, \u201cthe highest amount of money per capita in the world.\u201d Long-distance and data are on top of that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s horrific charging. We knew if we could take our desktop application, and make it so it works on smartphones, that\u2019s really eliminating a lot of hurt in Canada. That\u2019s putting a significant amount of money back into the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fibernetics developed a computer application that turns a computer into a free phone line. They started with a limited offer in Toronto, and their initial 500 customers quickly turned into 1,000, then 2,000, then 10,000. It was a good sign.<\/p>\n<p>They came up with a new name for the service, calling it <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fongo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fongo<\/a> and spun it out into its own separate company. When it launched, the app hit the top of the Apple iStore chart. Now, there are over 250,000 active users, giving Fongo well over five per cent market share in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>Fibernetics simultaneously targeted the business market as well, creating <a href=\"http:\/\/business.fibernetics.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\">NEWT\u2122<\/a>, a private branch exchange (PBX) that essentially eliminates the phone line. As an example, instead of a business paying for 12 phone lines, a business can buy or lease a Newt PBX and not pay for a phone line again. All voice traffic is managed over a dedicated connection and quality is not compromised.\u00a0Fibernetics believes that Newt is the only company in North America that is a regulated carrier, a network provider and has also developed their own PBX platform. Word is catching on, as Newt is now deployed in over 1,500 businesses.<\/p>\n<p>With software developers based in Sofia, Bulgaria, a call centre in the Dominican Republic, and at head office in Cambridge, Ontario, Fibernetics is expected to crest $30 million in annual revenue in 2013, with no institutional investment, and is a diversified company routing millions of calls per day on its network.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhere does the future lie?\u201d Stix was asked.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_418\" style=\"width: 635px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RoyGraydon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-418\" class=\"size-large wp-image-418   \" alt=\"1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"625\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.worldline.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/1-624x415.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-418\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Roy Graydon &#8211; President &amp; CFO with the boys<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe have a culture we\u2019re trying to create here with over 200 employees and have added key leadership like our new President and CFO Roy Graydon.
