Can't thank you enough. It answered lots of questions I had in mind about starting online business. <br><br>I specially like "Getting Real" from Mike's recommendations. <br><br>I think this company is in the same league with 37signals it would be useful if I could see "similar interviews" in the side bar so I could keep on watching. <br><br>Thanks a lot Andrew for bringing this excellent content for free! <br>Love it.

I specially like “Getting Real” from Mike's recommendations.

I think this company is in the same league with 37signals it would be useful if I could see “similar interviews” in the side bar so I could keep on watching.

Thanks a lot Andrew for bringing this excellent content for free!
Love it.

It is nice to see how you have gone deep in the success story of freshbooks, and I have found a lot of common things with our work flow and routines. <br>Here are couple of them:<br>- Always listen to your customers to improve your product<br>- Don't give them what they wont, give them what they need and follow your vision (well this is what separates you from others)<br>- You must have best support possible for your customers <br><br>There are lot of them but this 3 are basic :) <br><br>Keep up the good work, <br>Haris Great questions and answers. It is nice to see how you have gone deep in the success story of freshbooks, and I have found a lot of common things with our work flow and routines.
Here are couple of them:
- Always listen to your customers to improve your product
- Don't give them what they wont, give them what they need and follow your vision (well this is what separates you from others)
- You must have best support possible for your customers

There are lot of them but this 3 are basic :)

Keep up the good work,
Haris

I recommend it to newbie business owners just starting out. It's incredibly user friendly and automated. It takes the guesswork out of business finance - seriously!
