The responsibility of employees is definitely a challenge and something that requires a bit of risk-taking. On the flip side, you're providing people with jobs. I think it's best to grow these types of companies organically, and be really conservative when deciding to hire new people.

It's a much different story when you're a startup that has investors and cash to throw around.

I've been using Freshbooks for the past 2 months and I really like it. A nice thing about it is you can accept credit card payments directly on the invoice if you want.

I recently wrote about the tools I use at my design studio if you're interested: Freelancer to Design Studio Owner: Here is What I’ve Learned

I'm so impressed by people who take the time to do things like this.. very cool!

I wouldn't. If they are interested they are going to Google you anyway.. I'm sure your headshot will pop up when they do that.
