How to put your company into receivership: An extremely candid presentation.

October 25, 2009 | By James Tuckerman

In June this year, I was invited to participate in a panel on ‘Overcoming Business Growing Pains’ held by AIMIA in Melbourne.

Third speaker Brendan Lewis of the Churchill Club surprised (and delighted) us all with an extremely frank and candid presentation on his experiences taking his own company into administration.

It’s a subject that is not often written or spoken about, particularly in the first person, leaving most entrepreneurs with only one option for learning how to shut a company down… the hard way.

Special thanks to AIMIA for making this footage available to Anthill and ‘hats off’ to Brendan Lewis for this enlightening presentation. (To quote Lewis, “You won’t find this in any accounting or legal textbook.”)

    That story scared the heck out of me! I’m always cognisant that there are many factors beyond my control that could cause me to lose everything too.

    Could I ask why you didn’t liquidate the company yourself? (this is a question asked in ignorance of the issues and practicality of doing so).

9 things a 9 month-old can teach you about online marketing [VIDEO]

This morning, I sat down with my 9-month old son, Julian, to feed him breakfast. This is one of the jobs allocated to me as a first-time, new father. Remembering the arduous steps required to complete yesterday morning’s meal (and the day before that), and contemplating how bizarre it is that I must work so hard to provide him something that will make him stronger and healthier and happier, I began to think about online marketing. Yes, the brain works in mysterious ways. (And I am kind of sleep deprived.)
