Ep.29 Matt Flanagan – Blue Hub

Published: Nov. 15, 2015, 9 p.m.

I had a cushy corporate job as a Project Manager at Cap Gemini. The people were great, the role was enjoyable & I had a secure career. As is the nature of the corporate structure (and my impatience), my career progression was not at the pace I wanted.

This frustration led to a conversation with an old friend over a BBQ and a beer, which resulted in us both quitting our jobs and starting a company.

The next day was quite the hangover…

We purchased BlueHub a Software Development and Integrations company. Up to this last year, our focus was on bespoke development until we made the move to Xero.
BlueHub focused on software development for over ten years. The cost of bespoke priced us out of smaller businesses.

We began using “off the shelf” cloud products to manage BlueHub. We started using Xero and WorkflowMax. Once we saw how good these cloud-based systems were, we asked ourselves;

“Why are we reinventing the wheel?”

We started testing a range of Xero Add-ons & cloud systems, re-marketing to lost clients and spread the word of affordable Cloud.

The uptake was incredible! We found a solution that cut the costs, sped up the delivery and increased the amount of people we could help.

Now we help clients across sectors find, set-up and integrate cloud systems. From our past, we are able to assist users with complex integrations.
