I frequent r/QuickBooks and always get a little excited when I see the looking for replacement or complaining posts

I think more people should build in this space, why not have an alternative?

@carkerpox The worst 😭 best of luck brother

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

If you use QuickBooks or Wave for invoicing and are tired of their 1% no max cap ACH fees, I’d love if you tried our software out. We have lower fees so you’d save money with us. I’d be happy to give you a discount code on our $25/mo basic plan and you’d always have a direct line to me.

Save money on invoice fees. We’re 0.8% $20 max cap vs QB/Wave’s 1% no max cap. https://t.co/GVjuUB12JR

#founder twitter I’ve noticed on days when I do customer work/speak with a customer, I feel so much more energized than days without. What says everyone else? Is there anything anyone does about this? I’m thankful I have customers, users, revenue, ..

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

Super curious! Mainly #NYC or #SF founders, but folks everywhere feel free. What’s the best ROI for early customers? And why? So non ad running. IRL Events, Reddit threads, cold email, what else?

I think for me maybe Reddit threads or cold emails? But all is particularly a grind right now.. we build #bookkeeping software!

@VoltStackk As often as I can come up with high quality and helpful content! And helps with marketing/inbound and all that jazz

Business has been going slow but well at Sphere. We onboarded another recurring SaaS paying customer this week. Onward & upward 🚀

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

SaaS business is all about relationship building. We’ve onboarded a paying customer last week and a nonprofit recently. If you want better and cheaper bookkeeping software, let me know!

I’m trying to meet with founders in the NYC space and learn from you.

I met with @VinceLiuSphere and he taught me about what bookkeeping is and the insights you get from doing it early on as a startup.

DM me if you’re in the NYC area and have something to teach me!

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

What is bookkeeping? The system of work that categorizes financial transactions and follows accounting. What is accounting - the translation of those records to produce decision making info (either IRS tax following or GAAP financial reporting needs). Substack article incoming

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

@ricefield Down to cowork/jam! Shooting you a DM

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

@TTrimoreau Revenue?

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

Anyone ever think doing business 20-30 years ago was easier? My father runs a company in Asia and I imagine it’s a lot of in face, slow talks, etc. Now with how digital the world is, shorter attention spans, distractions etc. Is doing business harder? That said, with AI, building/doing business could be easier too? Pros/cons, #randomthought

[Vincent Liu @VinceLiuSphere]

@valsopi Right here! https://t.co/G0K0wl2uCQ
