This made me smile, so I thought a few of you might enjoy it too. I’d love to give a credit for it, but I’ve no idea where it originated. (click to enlarge) http://www.kashflow.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/what_people_think_entrepreneurs_do_grande-300x225.jpg There’s one important box...

Having successfully used this blog to hire people to join the marketing team (with a bit of help from Twitter), we thought we’d try our luck at using it to find a front end developer. As the sole member of the web design team, I’ve been busy lately. Really busy. Our recent rebrand and upcoming...

As we wrote earlier this week, we emailed our customers a poem in hopes of finding our one true Valentine. Actually, we asked them to tell us how much they love us in exchange for chocolates. THE RESULTS We weren’t sure what to expect, but the results were amazing! Within minutes the poems...

We’ve redecorated! There’s a couple of posts to come on the new website. We’ll start with the credits. In putting together the new KashFlow website we found out that not all freelancers are rubbish. In fact, everyone we’ve dealt with has been a massive asset to the project and we simply *insert...

All year our customers tell us how much they love us and we’re really grateful for the lovely messages we receive But with so many customers now, sending them all a dozen roses would cost a fortune. So Valentines Day seemed the perfect time to find our one true love and send them a tonne of...

A few months ago we launched a pilot with GoCardless. At the time we only let customers who have been with us for a year or more use the service. Today they went live and announced via TechCrunch that they have backing from Accel and Y-Combinator (no small feat!). So now it’s available to all...

I’ve posted in the past about the numerous ways Twitter has helped us to grow KashFlow. Something I’ve not mentioned before is how incredibly valuable it is as a tool to connect with journalists which in turn helps you get coverage for your business. There a a lot of friendly, accessible...

Trains journeys are one of the few times I get to just sit and read so I was looking forward to reading some more of Atlas Shrugged on my train home last night. I think I actually swore out loud when I realised my iPad battery was dead and I hadn’t synced the book to my phone. Continue reading...

You know how sometimes a song pops into your head and you can’t get it out until you play it? That happened to me this morning only it wasn’t a song, it was a document… When I first got into computers and the Internet in the early-mid 90′s there was already a strong sub-culture. There was a...

KashFlow has been going a good few years now and there are over 20 of us here. But we’re still very much a start-up in terms of our culture, the way we work, and the things we’re working on. Working in a start-up is nothing like working in a “big” business. Some people simply aren’t cut out...

The other week I was interviewed by Peter Day from the Radio 4 show “In Business” to talk about the recession and how it affects a business like ours. You can listen to it here. We’ve had lots of media coverage over the years, but this one interview generated a *lot* of traffic, sign-ups and...

For a while I’ve wanted to get a bunch of KashFlow customers together for an informal meet-up. That thought collided with another: Smaller business with just one or two staff don’t have much of a Christmas party. They’re no fun when there’s no one to pull a cracker with. So a week or so ago I...
