Back to Basics – What is Automation?
.
With the flurry of recent webinars, I am reminded that us automation nerds can’t get too far away from the general public. There are still a lot of people out there that don’t have any real good idea what accounting (AP and Payments) automation is. When training sales folks, I tell them they have to keep…

Where do invoices go when you automate?
.
I used to have a standard set of jokes I told as a teenager. One of the jokes in my set was, “Where do bad grapes go when they die?” “They go to raisin hell”. I know you are laughing… well probably not… That joke is where I got the phrase for the topic of…

.
I couldn’t believe it either! $250k in 10 months no less. I got this off of a podcast from”Smart Passive Income“. The individual’s name is Nathan Barry and he is a designer. His niche is App design.

Want a free book?
.
Encore! Encore! That’s what I was going to title this post, but I shamelessly decided to sell out and use the old “free” word to get attention. It’s true, you can get a free copy of my book The Argument to Automate – How Innovation Can INSPIRE Not Fire if you read this post. However,…

Update on the Princess!

The Princess and the Paper is ready. The editing, proofing, and testing has been completed. The testing took me a long time… Four kids, over fourteen years and countless, “Dad, read that book again!” If you have kids I am sure they are like mine, having a certain book that you have to read over…

Sharks and Blogs
.
I read a great quote about how sharks were like blog writing. I want to take a moment to thank… well, I don’t know who to thank for all of the wonderful communication outlets that are available to someone like myself. All of the outlets have their good and bad sides. I am very thankful…

Can Accountants think motivationally?
.
Don’t worry, I looked it up “Motivationally” is a word. The dictionary said, “the act or instant of motivating”. One of the quotes that I catch a lot of grief about is a line in The Argument to Automate, where I said that “accountants got into the business of accounting so they wouldn’t have to…

Guess what I got in the mail?
.
I was sitting in my office, and I’m sure I was doing something important, when a very well dressed co-worker dropped off a package. It was none only than the final proof to my third book. This one I am very excited about, but also extremely nervous about it. I have also done more “field” research for this…
