Talking Business#01 Interview with Guy Pearson from Ignition 

At 24, Guy Pearson turned down a partnership to start an accounting firm. His early clients were digital companies, and Pearson was jealous that there wasn’t an online commerce system for his industry. So in 2013, he launched a new company called Ignition to simplify and speed up the transaction process for professionals like him. To date, Ignition helped facilitate more than 1M client engagements and over $2B in client payments. Ignition has offices in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Philippines, South Africa, US, and the UK, with over 170 employees globally. Listen to Nathan and Guy discuss:  How intrapreneurship transformed into entrepreneurship  The challenges of building the original software for Ignition  Expanding to new markets outside of Australia  Why he still sits in on candidate interviews  The heartbreaking moments of raising capital  Starting vs. scaling a business  The balance between an accounting brain and entrepreneurial heart  How to lead with an experimental mindset Transitioning from a founder to CEO And much more business growth advice...

Phil Cavell

Grow old. Get fast. Don't die. In Phil's words, the Midlife Cyclist's author, these three things encapsulates exactly what the book is about. We are living as the first generation of human beings who have exercised heavily after the age of 40. The book looks into the effect of exercise on our heart, hormones and musculoskeletal system.We evolve some ideas of how to stay healthy and injury free after the age of 40. This book contains some great do's and don'ts  for the cyclist both those starting out after being exercise silent and plenty for the hard core lifetime cyclist.We are joined by the books biggest fan, Guy Pearson of Pearson cycles fame. He is currently injured and having had the longest time off the bike he can ever remember, reading this book has helped him put many things into perspective. For those that don't know me, Craig McLean, I'm not only a chiropractor but a nearly 50 year old amateur racing cyclist who's been riding with team 'Nuun Sigma Sports' for nearly a decade. Another midlife cyclist who still regularly competes with the upcoming future GB stars of cycling, both on the velodrome and road. I hope you enjoy the chat recorded in Cyclefit HQ Covent Garden.

The Midlife Cyclist - book review, meet author Phil Cavell from Cyclefit, a conversation joined by Guy Pearson, Pearson Cycles.

This episode features Rory with special guest Guy Pearson, the founder, and CEO of Practice Ignition, a technology company focusing on assisting accounting and bookkeeping firms by offering online proposals, automated billing, and other useful managerial tools. Practice Ignition works with over 5000 firms globally, with offices in Australia, New Zealand, UK, the US, and Canada. He touches on the differences in technology and how the US is few years behind their Australian and New Zealand counterparts, from real-time bank data feeds to their online filing system with AGI, which they’ve had since the ’90s. Guy talks about how technology enables firms to segment information to better understand their client base. Though robots are far from having qualitative conversations and identifying exactly what clients need, automated platforms such as Practice Ignition have allowed accounting firms to boost revenue and client satisfaction because of their bundled services. In this episode, Guy also lays out the foundation of what he looks for when deciding whether or not to invest in a company as an angel investor, emphasizing the importance of finding founders who have felt the pain of what they’re trying to solve. What makes an Uber driver more appealing to people than their accountant? Find out in Guy and Rory’s insightful discussion this episode. You can’t miss it!
