Back for another solopreneur blog update! In case you don’t live in Canada or the US, or in another country with fun holidays, we were off yesterday. In Ontario it’s called Family Day – no complaints here! Anyway, last week I was talking about what to do if things feel stale for any aspect of …

Had an interesting call with one of the Canadian embassies in Africa a few days ago. This is something we only recently discovered, but Canada has trade commissioners all around the world. And their mandate is basically to help Canadian solopreneurs and companies expand into other countries or regions of the world. Pretty cool stuff, …

Hey folks, back for another solopreneur blog update. Hope your week went a little more energetic than mine. Largely because Sunday night I stuffed my face while watching the Superbowl. Here’s what I thought about the game: It was a very good and entertaining game, until the refs blew it by making that holding call …

Had a very tough night last week. Nothing to do with business, but a bittersweet night it was. As some of you know, ever since Covid started, I’ve fostered a few cats. I barely even knew what fostering meant until a few years ago, but basically it’s when you help take care of an animal …
Went for a walk during lunch yesterday to grab some things and get some fresh air. When you work from home and live in Canada (the cold parts), going outside isn’t the most fun thing to do in the winter. And quite frankly, since so much of what we do now can be done online, …
It’s been a very cold and snowy weekend over here in Toronto, perfect weather to hang in and share another solopreneur blog post and update. It’s probably a net negative overall, but the good thing about Canadian winters – if you can call it that – is that there isn’t much else to do but …
Got some crappy news yesterday from our immigration firm. For the most part I like(d) being an immigration lawyer, but there’s one thing that really sucks to have to deal with. I say “like(d)” because as most of you know, I don’t spend much time practicing anymore, and instead spend my time building tech for …

Sometimes I’m convinced that sales are random. I don’t mean all sales are random, but yesterday I had one of those days. One of those days where you get a great referral, a random cold email that will likely convert, and a sales call or two that close. All within a day. Now these don’t …

Big week coming up for us, as we onboard our first b2b users to our new platform on Visto this week. The goal is to finish all of our beta testing this month, and a big public launch in February. To say I’m excited would be putting it lightly, because it’s been a long time …
As you know, part of what I like to do on this solopreneur blog is share info on recent books I’ve read – to share key takeaways and make recommendations (or save you from reading crap). Anyway, while I was away on my trip over the holidays, I read 4 books. 4 books in 10 …
