Work whoring - free stuff for small businesses!

Posted on
  • On 28/01/2014 the company I work for is taking over a bit of space at Look Mum No Hands for a thing called #Escfromxls.

    We're looking for some small businesses with their business stuck in a spreadsheet, that want to get it out, making it easy to share with others, and ultimately maybe use our product.

    If you're in the old street area on the 28th, fancy a freebie database and can sit with us for 1/2 an hour and let us build you something...then please reply on this tread or pm me.

    If this isn't cool, mods please delete!

    Cheers

  • Very interested in this. Can we talk so I can get a few details?

  • Hey Jeez,

    I think we see lots of businesses that start off using spreadsheets for all their data, then get to the point where the data needs to be shared, distributed or reported on...and hit a wall.

    It's a case of drag and drop to get an XLS or CSV file into our software, then within about 30 minutes you can have a decent looking sharable database that can be deployed to web or iOS.

    I've come into this really late in the day, but the plan is to get some people up and running on a database within 30 minutes, using their existing business data.

    It's a PR event for us, but for a small business it could be a useful start in the data management/efficient working and sharing areas...and you get something for free.

    Given the location that's being used, I thought a few people that frequent LMNH might be up for this...maybe?

  • Sounds like a good idea. Not something I need at the moment. Good luck.

    Ta.

  • this looks cool. is it a day thing?

  • this looks cool. is it a day thing?

    Yeah, plan is to be there from 10-4ish, would be cool to have a few people interested up front who have spreadsheets they want to have turned into something more useful...
