Folks,
As some of you may know I quit my career as a software developer about 2 months ago. There were various reasons for me doing this, but the main one is that I no longer have the desire to work my guts out so as some other dude can smoke Cubans and drive a CLK off the proceeds of my hard work. I've decided to go it alone and start a new software and business services company called KRO Solutions.
There are two reasons for me saying this online here. The first is so as Airhead and other people I have been annoying about car-vans and stuff can be put out of their misery and know what I am up to. The second is because I am looking for both customers and suppliers and since most of you know of me at least I might have a good start here.
I intent to provide mainly software applications for helping to run a business efficiently. I will custom write time/management software, invoicing software, warehousing and inventory databases, online ordering systems, reservations systems, and almost anything business application software. For as long as I am not too busy I will also provide software or websites for small companies or individuals. You see the adverts online - 5 page website for €150 and that type of thing. Bring me your business whilst I am getting going and I will do a proper professional website for the same price as that student guy is offering to do it!! All I ask in return is that you recommend me to one or two others if you are happy. There will be a graphic designer working with me also if anyone needs a corporate identity. I am also doing training courses - SQLServer, ECDL, CRM, Sharepoint, etc. One other aspect of the business will be providing productivity/efficiency consulting services to SME's, but that will not kick in until later.
The business is limited and VAT registered.
On the flipside of this give and take post I will need extra PCs, networking equipment, software, stationary, office furniture, and a van. I am willing to barter (software for hardware!!) whilst cash is tight, or down the road I'd rather give my cash to a VeeDub fan or his/her family than send it to some other crowd. So let me know if you are in any of those lines.
So that's it. My own website is a work in progress, but when it is complete it will be at http://www.krosolutions.com/ and my contact details are up there for now.
Thanks,
Ruairi
P.S. Watch this space for a second business coming your way in mid 2008 - much more exciting for VeeDub fans
