Counting on each other: The duo sharing the language of ecommerce
Summary
After years of struggling to find an accountant who understood the complexities of her niche and rapidly growing ecommerce business, Diana turned to the internet for answers. Between expressing milk at work and all of the equipment that came with it, I thought, “Wouldn’t it be great to have products that would help make the breast pumping journey more comfortable for new mums?” And that’s where the inspiration for Milkbar began. One of the things that I’d love to build on with Diana is connecting her to working mums in similar industries, most of whom aren’t given the airtime to talk about their success beyond the limits of their business. I learned to track key figures in my business which was a huge help in monitoring large shipments, delays and changing exchange rates. It’s common in specialist accounting to learn from one client in order to teach the next, and that couldn’t be more true of our working relationship – especially in the past year.
