\"Blue<\/p>\n

Thanks to my friends at Sage, I recently had the pleasure of meeting Graham Hussey<\/a> and Mark McDonagh<\/a> from The Start Up Van<\/a> at their pop up shop in Shoreditch, London. The\u00a0Start Up Van\u00a0helps some of the most talented, fun and influential people in the start up community to tell their story. They have quickly amassed over thousands of followers on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook and are worth following\u00a0if you love business and start ups.<\/p>\n

The interview was filmed in two sections. In the first short clip below\u00a0I share the Blue Eyed Sun story. Watch it to hear\u00a0how we set up our greeting card publishing\u00a0business, how the business has changed over the years, what’s next for Blue Eyed Sun and how we contribute to our industry\u00a0through The Ladder Club<\/a>\u00a0and our involvement with the GCA<\/a> and the GA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We also touch on the Looking Back from Perfect<\/a> exercise which I will be sharing with\u00a0\u00a0delegates at this year’s Sage Summit<\/a> in one of two talks I am\u00a0giving in Chicago this July. The Start Up Van guys will also be there and I’m looking forward to catching up with them again soon.<\/p>\n
