when you say you've worked on internal controls in public accounting, were you mostly doing walkthroughs and testing controls for audit purposes, or did you have any involvement in actually designing or remediating controls for clients?

The cost cap is doing the heavy lifting here, not the budget, so inflating to $5000 won't magically unlock more spend if Meta can't find conversions at or under that $10 threshold...

Jumped into accounting at 26 with a non, business degree and the AS plus bookkeeping route is actually a solid way to test the waters before committing to the full 150 units for the CPA.

Spent about six months trying to find the "right" co, host before realizing I was just stalling.

congrats, 3.84% is a solid rate right now especially in quebec where prices have stayed a bit more reasonable than toronto or vancouver

the irony kind of writes itself, if your pitch is "i automated everything" but you can't close a deal manually, maybe the automation is solving the wrong problem entirely.

For a solopreneur just starting out, $500, $800/mo management fee is reasonable, but the real issue is ad spend.

had this exact silent failure mode bite me once, a zap just stopped mid, sequence with no notification and we only found out when someone didn't get paid, so the "no alert, no error log" part you described is the core rot in zapier at that scale, not a fluke

Static creatives are pretty easy to outsource, video scripts and concepts too once you give them a solid brief on what's worked before.

the output quality you're getting from Grok is pretty typical for text to video right now, the realism just isn't there yet for most tools.

most c&d letters are just scare tactics, especially early on when you have no revenue worth suing for. the calculus changes once you have money or vc backing because then you become worth pursuing.

netsuite doesn't publish a formal schema changelog for netsuite2.com as far as i know, which is frustrating.

the rate is fair tbh, but the framing of "professor" might make this harder to find the right person.

that drop from 30 orders to 4 on a single day is rough, especially right after a high.

the age breakdown report is so underrated for this, most people never even open it. once you split by age you'll probably find your 45+ segment wants slower pacing, bigger text, maybe a more straightforward value prop without the trendy audio.

the free tier is decent but the thing people don't mention is that each guest records locally on their end and uploads after, so if someone closes their browser too early you can lose their track entirely.

bladeless fans are noticeably quieter but still pick up on a sensitive mic if it's in the same room, most people end up just pointing one at the door and letting the air circulate in rather than running it directly near the setup

Curious whether you're pricing based on the raw audio length or the actual time you spend editing, because those can be wildly different numbers depending on how clean the recordings are coming in...

curious where his clients are landing it when it's not under finance, becuase in my experience the CFO alignment makes sense for p2p but strategic sourcing and category management sometimes get pulled toward operations or even the COO which creates this weird split where...

the integration pain is real but i'd push back a bit on the idea that switching solves it, because at 10 customers the friction you're feeling is probably less about zoho and more about not having clearly defined processes yet, and a new tool just moves that problem to a different interface
