Invoicing Application

Under 10 Employees
Founders Code
Solo Founder
E-Commerce

Because I needed an invoicing application when I started my own business in 2006. I put it on the internet and it just grew since then. It practically found me :)

April 1, 2021 First employee

I'll have my first employee starting April 1st. After 15 solo years with the occasional freelancer working for me she will be helping me and I will help her build our lives on this company that founded itself so many years ago.

This is a new chapter for me, too, because I don't really know how to be a boss. Quite crazy…

March 19, 2021 Shipped first open3ABox

I brought my first open3ABox to the post office. It was quite some work to actually build it with all the functionality I had in mind.

It was also hard to sell one. I pitched it to at least five people who I thought would be a fit.

Now I can add another 80€ to my monthly income 😈 For now, at least. We'll see how it goes…

January 1, 2020 Founded a Ltd.

It's called a GmbH in Germany but I guess it's somewhere the same thing. I put down 12.500€ and after a lot of work with notaries and my tax councilor I'm now employed at my own company. I'm no longer my company. It actually exists out of it's own right.
