Jim Geisman has seen nearly everything there is to see in pricing practice and has come to the conclusion that there is no right or wrong price, there is simply pricing that works.

Mark says: ‘I honestly had no idea that my daughter had done so much interviewing behind the scenes at Business of Software Conference. Quite the scene stealer. This does a pretty good job of capturing some of the reasons we love putting Business of Software Conference on.’

We love putting Business of Software Conference together and often wonder, as we huddle together for warmth in the long, dark, grim days when Business of Software Conference isn’t actually running, what people do with the ideas when they get back to the office. Here is one answer, a guest blog from Kevin Davis at Yammer who put some of the key points that he learned over the 3 days of the event into a short presentation.

A few excerpts from a very long, but very worthwhile read in the New York Times from Yiren Lu, a graduate computer science student from Columbia and recent Harvard Grad. Explores some of the tensions between the technology ‘old guard’ and ‘new guard’ from a very interesting perspective. Read the whole article here at the New York Times.

Shawn Anderson, founder of Admin Arsenal, and long time Business of Software Conference regular writes about something he learned from Mikey Trafton – how to learn to love, not loathe, hiring people.

A guest blog post from Jeremy Aber, of Aber Law, on some of the important things to consider when selling software into enterprise. As software companies grow and start to sell their products into larger organisations, many come unstuck as they don’t consider some of the issues outlined here. A short and useful primer.

On the whole, I am very happy in my work but if I was going to have another career a Polish fighter pilot would be quite cool from this evidence.

Interesting stream from Marc Andreessen on the role that venture capital has to play in encouraging ‘good’ behaviours and platforms.
Investors are clearly part of the problem here, but they can also be part of the solution. More of them should be watching Kathy Sierra’s talks and demanding their startups do too.

Business of Software is seven years old now. Thank you for being part of such an incredible community of people that care about making great software and building great businesses.
Business of Software has always been a global community: last year half the attendees came from outside the US. As we have grown, we have been thinking about how we can grow and work with more amazing entrepreneurs and software developers.

There are many software companies that are world class at building products. Great products. There are a lot fewer software companies that are world class at selling those products. Patrick McKenzie has some observations on why that might be and at BoS2013 he proposed some solutions that any company could put in place.

On my list of technology companies that annoyed me this week because their software automatically ‘upgraded my experience’ to a significantly worse experience for me is Google and Samsung. Not Apple, but only because I no longer have any Apple products in my life (sorry about that, Steve).

Dharmesh came back to BoS in 2013, to look at a very precious and poorly understood asset for software companies – culture. Whilst Dharmesh himself claims to not even like humans (a point that he made to Hubspot’s CEO, Brian Halligan) when responsibility for Hubspot culture ended up on his desk, he approaches the subject with the same analytical zeal that any technophile would – by looking at culture as a coding thing.

My thanks to my friend Rodolofo Rossini, CEO of Storybricks for reminding me of this rather wonderful bedtime story.

Delighted to hear that Kathy Sierra has finished her book on badass at last. We can’t wait to see the final version.
I did it. Finished the book. 7 years since my last one; I’d started believing I was no longer capable. Then I went to @webstock & @bos. <3

Elevator pitches are so 20th Century. When facts are clearly on your side, Question Pitches get people to do a little work and people often come up with their own reasons for agreeing with you and these are far more powerful than yours can ever be. The Question Pitch from Daniel Pink on Vimeo. A neat 90 second video from Dan Pink explains why.

I honestly had no idea that my daughter had done so much interviewing behind the scenes at Business of Software Conference. Quite the scene stealer.
