Startup lessons learned after two and a half years

First I really enjoyed the post. I'm even more intrigued now though, you have 100 paying customers at a maximum of £12 pound a month, this is only £14,400 a year. Between two of you?!?<p>How long can you continue to live like that? How do you live on that amount of money? Have you thought about raising the price?

Hi everyone,<p>I didn't post this, but I am the author. Thanks for all the kind words on the post.<p>As far as Float goes, it currently only works with www.freeagent.com, so if you are a FreeAgent user, feel free to sign up.<p>I am (as we speak) working on integration with www.xero.com, and there's more detail on that here if you want to try the beta: <a href="http://floatapp.com/xero" rel="nofollow">http://floatapp.com/xero</a>.<p>All thoughts and feedback on either the post of the product are more than welcome :)<p>Thanks!

I think you should really invest in your website. I did not know about Float before, but so it happens that I´m shopping for a financial/accounting/cash flow app and I got to be honest: Float might work and maybe is all I need but your site really does not convey the value it might provide me if I become a user (I´m refering to the home page, the tour page does a bit better but you could improve it by tweaking a few things)<p>I suspect your metrics might have some key info relating to what I´m about to tell you: grab the whole tour page and include it below the Start your free trial in the home page. See if that helps your conversions.<p>Good luck!

Its quiet a big feat that tht OP moved from writing first line of code to lauching a company in 10 months. Wonder how did he manage it?<p>I have been writing code/Mobile apps for 2.5 years still scared to take the leap.
