Mate Karolyi

My journey in web design began seven years ago, following roles as a logistics engineer, street workout competitor, and personal trainer. I quickly immersed myself and focused on mastering the world of web development. I didn't just aim for excellence in web design, but also in graphic design, various programming languages, SEO, and digital marketing, recognizing that all these are crucial for a business's solid online presence and sales.

A turning point in my career came with the intense period of crowdsourcing competitions. This highly competitive, international standard-setting environment provided me with concentrated experience, elevating me to an expert level in web design. This exposure to the tech startup scene eventually led me to a leadership position in a Hungarian custom software development company's web design team. Recognized for my rapid learning and efficient project management skills, I was soon promoted to an executive assistant role. For a year and a half, I successfully managed a diverse range of client projects, while also participating in sales, programming tasks, and leading the web design team. Additionally, I redesigned and improved the company's business processes, such as establishing HR processes and developing an internal HR system.

In 2020, the launch of TRAVLRD opened new horizons in my life, allowing me to build a stable, high-quality operation aligned with my values. Our mission is simple yet profound - to deliver high-quality work and exceptional customer service, ensuring that the process is enjoyable for both our team and our clients. Now, as the founder and CEO, my focus is divided between strategic business development and production. Additionally, I oversee the marketing, HR, financial, and accounting processes to ensure smooth operations.

It is important to me that the company grows sustainably and that we consistently deliver projects on time and maintain our standard of quality. As a project manager, I participate in nearly every project, ensuring our core mission is achieved. Our fundamental value is that it's not just the sale or delivery of the project that matters, but also the human relationships we build along the way.
