Business news

To keep up-to-date with my business reports, I now have 7 people working for me (5 developers, 1 software tester and 1 administrative staff) and will be hiring an 8th (and maybe a 9th - but that's still a logistical problem in terms of space right now)...

One year in business

It's been one year, on the 23rd of August, that I launched my company. The total turnover of the year is laughable (less than one little English annual salary), but the opportunities are great and the growth curve is rather exponential. Hail the busi...

Little shake makes me wonder

We had a clear "tremblor" in Lima yesterday. Julio, one of my employees, was the first to realize. I don't think it was worth reporting on the USGS website, but we could definitely all feel it, and it lasted for 5-10 seconds.

Reaching the limits of a one-man-business

I was just thinking... I think I'm starting to reach the physical limit of what one single person can do professionally at any given time. Now I'm officially managing my business financially, commercially, administratively, technically, logistically and...
