Managing Director of Univex Software - the software development arm of The Univex Group. We create software that runs businesses - accounting systems, point of sale, e-commerce, inventory, and more. As part of the broader Univex Group we supply everything: hardware, software, networks, hosting, and the know-how and responsibility to make it all work together. Our software is used by retailers and wholesalers in Australia and New Zealand.

My passion is running the business - growing it in to something great. We are very small and have a startup like atmosphere, but have been in business over three decades.

comment Can it be a good idea to lease a house rather than a standard office-space for a software development shop?
We've run software businesses out of suburban houses for many years and the neighbors love it: we keep an eye on the street and (anecdotally, at one location) because of the increased traffic movements burglaries and petty crime disappeared.

comment What time of the year to review your company strategy?
I should have been more precise: by 'start' I meant scheduling in the time to perform the review within the next month, not actually perform a review the week leading up to Christmas day.

We use Dada but want to move off: it's too much work to maintain it. As Christian suggested might be ok for a few hundred subscribers - turn on the Mystery Girl plugin for bounces, and the Bridge plugin for a one-way mailing list. Our shortlist for replacement is PHP List, Octeth, Interspire Email Marketing and Campaign Monitor (which is hosted).

Fair point. Different countries will have different laws - and I am not familiar with US laws.
