We're Hiring for Our Support Team! →
When we say “support” at FreshBooks, we don’t mean it in the way you’re probably used to. We mean: we really support FreshBooks customers. We’re there for them. We take an active interest in their business, cheer them on, and go out of our way to make their day better. Customer support is never an afterthought; never something we have to do - it’s what we want...

We had a FreshBooks grad with a TRON movie theme. We covered up the whole office and turned it into a black light extravaganza complete with glow-in-the-dark mini putt! Congrats Nox, Ryan, Djoume, and Colin!!

Jon Spenceley Week Tuesday Twins
For day two of my birthday week, I decided to see if I could get people to pair up and dress alike. We’ve had these dress-alike moments randomly in the past, now I wanted to see if we could make it happen company-wide!
The turnout was great, and we got a lot of fantastic shots. Huge thanks to Owen for these rockin pics:

Jon Spenceley Week Movember Pina Coladas
Whew! That’s a long title.
Jon from FreshBooks here, reporting for Day 1 of #jsw2011. Since I like to take an entire week to celebrate my birthday, I try to run a few events along the way to raise money for my favourite charity - Movember!

An Internal FreshBooks Email
“A few weeks back, I was invited by one of our friend of FreshBooks accountants (and new member of Beancounters United, our accountant program), STAR Company to their 6th birthday celebration. Being a fan of parties, and accountants, of course I said yes.
Along with my friendly colleagues Jon and Amanda, we headed down to CSI Annex armed with only our RSVPs and our “fancy/funky”...

Nox and MY Freshbooks Team,
I am sitting here reading the email I just opened because the Subject line looked puzzling and interesting. I open it up … and am totally blown away! I CANNOT believe that you all are doing this for me and my husband! There just aren’t people in this world like you all, or so I thought. I screamed and called my cousin (whom I am spending the week with here...

We’re small, but mighty!
– One of the great things about working at FreshBooks is hearing all the great stories of our users on how they are following their dream and passion. Most of the stories that I hear involve giving up a nice and steady 9-5 “job” for a sometimes gruelling and stressful 24/7 freelancing...

Customer Service, surprise and delight your... →
I was so surprised and delighted that Steve from support to the time to 1, write to me and 2, send me a t-shirt. How awesome and unpredictable was that! Not only that they are an awesome company that have a fantastic software that has changed how I manage my books but they care! All of this from a accounting software company! So yeah I am a screaming fan, shoot me.

Office Speed Dating
Every month here at FreshBooks we have an all-hands meeting to bring everyone up to speed on FreshBooks as a whole. These are pretty informal, and we all get to hear what everyone is working on.
Since the all-hands meeting is one of the few times our entire office is all in one place, I decided to run a get-to-know-you game after the meeting to get different departments talking to one another.
