The majority of the conferences I attend take place in the USA.  I was happily surprised to meet a fellow Canadian, Esther Friedberg, when attending the QuickBooks Enterprise Conference in Dallas last September.  Not only was she from the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) but she was also from the same city I grew up in, Thornhill, ON.  ...

With today’s economy, businesses have to make difficult choices as to where they will spend their hard earned dollars.  For anyone who attended the Scaling New Heights Conference in Atlanta last week, I strongly feel it was money well spent.  This conference gave attendees a very unique opportunity to learn Intuit products, prepare ...

As I leaked out earlier this week in my blog post The future of web apps: end-user web platforms, Method Warehouse is now available!  If you are already a user of Method Full Blown Edition, the news is even better: Method Warehouse is included in your monthly subscription (yes.....even the Method MRP Calculation!).   All you need to ...

Since the launch of Method, I'm asked more and more for my thoughts on what the future holds for small business software.   You might be surprised that I respond that the future of small business software isn't software at all!  The future is customizable web apps, built on end-user web platforms.   During the last 10 ...

Anyone who runs a company knows that a typical day is made up of putting out fires, attending too many meetings, and finding time for mundane tasks that you still haven't figured out how to delegate.  If you are lucky you can dedicate a tiny sliver of your day to work on “what's next”, i.e. those changes your team can make ...

You know it’s a sure sign of spring when you hear birds chirping in the morning on the way to work.  For those of you who don’t know, spring officially started on March 20th, although here in Toronto, it doesn’t feel that way just yet! Besides the birds, what’s all this “twittering” about?  Well if ...

Last month on our blog, I announced that I will be heading to Atlanta to participate in the Scaling New Heights Conference being hosted by Joe Woodard. If you haven’t heard about this conference yet, you should read my blog post from last month by clicking here. Joe is actually offering a series of FREE webinars, leading up to the ...

I love my gadgets.   I really do.  So when we started talking about making a connector that would allow Xora users to integrate with Method and of course QuickBooks, I was pretty pumped.  Haven’t heard of Xora before?  Well, Xora is an alien creature from a distant plant named…..just kidding!  Okay, all ...

If you’ve been keeping up to date with our blogs, email announcements, or have spoken to any of the members of the Method Team, you know how busy we are right now.  I’ll be honest; it’s a little nutty, crazy and exciting, all at the same time.  At times, I’d like to think of myself as a “human ...
