This post has been a long time coming, I think it’s important that I document both for myself and for anyone reading my blog that starting a web design business isn’t all bunny rabbits and dollar signs. Just like anything else in life, there are highs, and there are lows. This isn’t meant to come [...]
Happy Birthday Me! (Sort of)
I can’t believe that I nearly completely forgot about this – but as of a day or two ago this blog is officially a whole year old. Join me as we take a short trip down memory lane and see what’s gone on in the last 12 months, and where I plan on taking us [...]
How to Kill Your Business: 30 Day Payment Terms
This post originally started out as a comment that I was going to leave on this article over at FreelaceSwitch, but after a couple of paragraphs I decided that it was something that I cared enough about to turn into a full article. It’s a really great post about new year’s advice for freelancers, but [...]
Starting a Business: A Year in Review
All in all 2009 was a really good year for me and I feel like I managed to achieve quite a large amount, but I’m certainly not resting on my laurels. I’m going to do a quick review of the goals which I set myself a year ago and then dive right into everything which [...]

Starting A Business – 10th Month Review
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these (again), but I’m going to try out a new post-schedule for this blog so I can deliver content to you a bit more regularly. Quite a lot has happened over the last few months, thankfully the overwhelming majority of it has been positive – and [...]
Moo’d Cards Unleashed!
Last week I posted an article about how I’d created some Moo MiniCards to use as Mood Cards in clients meetings, and I was absolutely overwhelmed by the response.
