Three signs your business has outgrown its first tools: double data entry, a spreadsheet only one person understands, and reports that arrive late. Time for something built for you.

If you are starting something: sell it before you build it. Software is the last step, not the first.

Note to self and everyone else: back up your website. Then check that the backup actually restores.
