Podcasts about hurdlr

Raj Bhaskar is a successful two-time practical software founder with one exit. In 2000, he started his first software company, VisualHOMES, to provide a comprehensive financial management software to public housing agencies. With no outside funding, the business grew to serve 65 regional providers serving 2 million residents before Yardi Systems acquired the company in 2010.  After he left Yardi two years later, Raj and his brother launched Hurdlr to reach the wider small business market with a simpler accounting and tax management software than Quickbooks. They started selling their online accounting software to small businesses, but eventually they returned to their original vision to build embedded (white label) accounting that works inside other software.  Hurdlr has grown steadily and has served over 1.3 million small businesses in its 13-year history. Raj invested his own money for many years and a little outside investment. The company is now “lifetime profitable” and growing quickly with 25 employees. Raj loves his work and has no intention of selling the business anytime soon. Quote from Raj Bhaskar, cofounder and CEO of Hurdlr “I ran my previous software business for 10 years before I sold it. And Hurdlr is now over 10 years old. These days, I'm talking about the next 10 years and the next 10 years after that. The next decade and two decades from now, because it's relevant and because I think we're just getting started. “I've seen inflection points in markets, and our market is finally ready. That's the part we didn't have any control over. So, in my view, there is no finish line. This is the starting line where we now have all these assets and need to let more people know we exist. “It's crazy to say after 10 years that this is just the beginning. So I could say probably 20 years from now, looking backward, OK, these are the phases, but I'm in new territory and I know this will be a sustainable and growing business for a long time.” Links Raj Bhaskar on LinkedIn Hurdlr on LinkedIn Hurdlr website Podcast Sponsor – Full Scale This week's podcast is sponsored by Full Scale, one of the fastest-growing software development companies in any region.

Join us as we discuss: - Why banks need to stop neglecting the gig economy - Why banks aren't sufficiently scared by brands like Square or Stripe - Why COVID should serve as a wake-up call for traditional financial brands You can find this interview and many more by subscribing to Banking on Digital Growth on Apple Podcasts, on Spotify, or here.

We've been talking about strikes, about how Doordash is behaving badly, lower pay, hiding tips, all that good stuff. Or bad stuff.It can feel like we're out of control. But being in control is a matter of choice. This week we talk about 11 rules where you can take control of your app based gig economy business.What rules would you add? You can comment on the episode page at EntreCourier.com The rule that makes the other rules:You are running a business.Whether you deliver for Doordash, Grubhub, Uber Eats, Instacart or any of the others, or if you do ride share or some other app based gig contracting, you agreed that you were performing a service AS A BUSINESS. The IRS taxes you like you are running a business.The best way to succeed at running that business is to embrace the fact that you are indeed running a business. Treat it like a business.These following rules will help you develop that business mindset.1. Everything is your fault.While it sounds negative, it's the most positive thing there could be. Because that means you're in control. You're not at anyone's mercy. You get to make the decisions, you get to operate your business in a way that makes sense.2. Know your Why.Understand your reason for getting into the gig economy and let that guide you.3. Know the relationship with the gig companies.They aren't our employers. They're not our bosses. They are our customers.4. Running a business means your customer will try to screw you.It happens everywhere. And businesses thrive. Remember that you're the one in control of the relationships you get into.5. Think profit.The money you make is NOT the money that gets paid to you by Uber Eats, Doordash, Lyft, Grubhub, Instacart or others. What you earn is what's left over after expenses.6. Give Yourself a Paycheck.Get a bank account just for your business. You can try Novo (affiliate link).  Save money for expenses, taxes and paid time off (Hurdlr has a great calculator for figuring taxes). Then pay yourself the difference.7. Give your time a value.Time is money! But how much money? Decide what your time is worth.8. Set your priceBased on your why and the value of your time, set a standard for when gigs are worth accepting.9. Make Business Decisions.You decided your why. You set your price and value for your time. Make decisions based on how it impacts your business, not on emotion and definitely not based on anyone's ideas of how you should make decisions.10. Be Awesome.A key to success for any business is how great they are. Gig work is no different.11. Have an exit planLaws could change. Your preferences could change. Start planning for the great "What's Next?"A couple other rules came to mind:No one owes you anythingNever rely on just one customer.What rules would you add?

Financial App for Solopreneurs: Hurdlr Makes Accounting a Breeze View your profits and capture your deductions in real time with this App.   Enjoy this interview with Raj Bhaskar, CEO of Hurdlr, about how this app makes financial tracking for the self-employed freelancers of the world complete and easy. Hurdlr is dubbing this the “Financial App for Solopreneurs.” Long gone are the days of saving piles of receipts and sifting through them every tax season. Good riddance! So, if you’re an Uber or Taxi Driver Realtor Freelancer Contractor Airbnb Host Or any other type of self employed small business owner loving your freedom but hating the process of figuring out financials, this app might be a good fit for you. Two major and differentiating advantages of Hurdlr, according to its CEO are: Shows real time profit before tax Shows real time profit after tax The reason this is big news is because Hurdlr–unlike other apps–created its very own real time tax calculator to adjust for variation in taxes. This is real time in all 50 US states, Canada and Australia. All you have to do to get started is login and connect the app with your bank account and credit card. From there it’s easy to track finances and capture all of your deductions as you go to get the most returns. You’ll also receive other perks such as: If you have questions about the app, Hurdlr has a live in-app chat, with team members ready to answer your questions within 5 minutes during normal working hours and within 48 hours during the weekend, on average. It integrates with systems like Square, FreshBooks, American Express, and 10k+ banks and credit cards to tap into a holistic view of your income and expenses. Automatic mileage tracking: You can even set your work hours so that every day it knows when to ‘turn on’ tracking mode If you’re an accountant or you like to rely on one, don’t fret! This app doesn’t replace your accountant, instead it helps make their job easier. You can send your reports directly to your accountant so they can provide the advice and guidance you need without wasting precious time on compiling all the nitty gritty details.

Rak Bhaskar is the co-founder and CEO of Hurdlr, a mobile business management application that is targeted at entrepreneurs and small business owners to help them bridge the gap between manual spreadsheets and complex small business accounting systems.  He is also the founder of Visual Homes, a leading real estate rental management platform designed specifically for subsidized housing programs. In 2010, he sold Visual Homes to Yardi Systems, a global leader in real estate software solutions. He also worked for Yardi for 2 years in a business development capacity. Raj holds a Business Administration, with honors, from The George Washington University    Current core revenue streams  Hurdlr's core revenue stream is Mobile SaaS which users pay a small monthly fee to use.     Starting out in business  He was passionate about business from a young age and also grew up within a business-oriented environment. Was selling candy in the fifth and sixth grade after which he moved on to selling sodas at golf tournaments in high school. He also had a car detailing business and shovelled snow in the winters.  Always wanted to work for a start-up before starting his own business. After graduating college, he worked for a wireless software start-up for a year and then started his first business, Visual Homes which he sold to Yardi systems after 10 years. He worked for Yardi systems for a year and a half just to create value for the company while also gaining the perspective of being the employee of an established company.  Visual Homes idea  The idea for Visual Homes was based on helping local communities thrive through public and affordable housing. It also helped real estate agencies thrive in supporting the communities. The technology platform was primarily built to help in financial and compliance management of housing agencies. Visual Homes helps in determining who is eligible for public housing, among other things.  The idea for Visual Homes was not originally Raj's. There was a business that had developed a similar technology so Raj bought it without paying for it upfront (had an agreement with the owner of the business to pay him later on) and derived the new technology from the old one. The old technology was targeted towards small agencies, but after Raj developed the new product, he targeted it towards medium and large agencies.   Growth strategy at the beginning  Raj looked up the top 500 housing agencies in the US and cold called all of them. Within 6 months, he landed his first contract, worth $500,000. That enabled him to meet all the financial needs of the business and build it up gradually. He initially outsourced the app enhancements to developers in India to keep his costs low.  Transitioning from a business background to a technical one  It helped a lot that Raj had started off his college education with computer science for three semesters.   Current growth strategy  Raj still uses cold calling while including demos and the building of long term relationships. That worked for the first five years of Visual Homes and within the second five years, the business started growing exponentially.  Tip 1: Know the market you're in and understand what the sales cycles are like so that you can develop a realistic and achievable business plan  Tip 2: When you over-deliver on value, and provide your clients with exceptional unmatched service, they will always refer you to other clients  Knowing the Visual Homes idea would work  Raj persevered a lot and always made sure he over-delivered on value to clients which led to a lot of referral business coming in.  Starting Hurdlr  Released the Hurdlr app to the public more than a year ago. It took several years to develop the app because it is a real time income tax calculation engine which had to have mileage trackers and automated financial tracking. The app also needed to be connected to more than 15,000 banks and credit cards. Its development...

On this episode of House Flip Masters Holly is joined by guest Raj Bhaskar. Raj is the co-founder of mobile profit and taxes app, Hurdlr, designed for self-employed entrepreneurs. Raj had his first taste of real estate when he created his first software platform for real estate management; this software was used by housing agencies all over the country helping them to manage their public housing and affordable housing properties. Raj built this company up for 10 years and when it sold in 2010 to real estate software company Yardi. With his own real estate experience and knowledge from the platforms that he has created Raj believes that real estate should be a part of everyone’s investment portfolio in some way of another whether it is actual property or an indirect real estate venture. Raj got interested in real estate software when he and his wife bought their first home together and decided to rent the condo that Raj owned. When they decided to rent out this property Raj was asked to get together all his expenses concerning that property – this was the first time he had to do this – and he wasn’t prepared to do it. When gathering the information that he needed Raj started thinking that gathering the required documents was basically a business. During this time Raj was already building an app for entrepreneurs to help manage all of their business finances – when he was gathering paperwork for this condo he realized that his personal task was a great use case for the app – he then started adding functions to the app that allowed for real estate investors to track their finances along the way so that when tax time came they could just send information to their CPA with a tap of a button. Raj reminds us that in real estate investing it is vitally important to track your numbers and to invest smart; invest to make a return on your investment. By knowing your numbers you will make good money and have a good business. The best way that Raj suggests to know your numbers is to start off by opening a separate bank account or credit card and use that only for your rental property expenses. With a separate account every time you receive a statement everything will all be related to that specific business you opened the account for. Raj also advises that you do not mix your personal expenses with your real estate investing expenses. Holly agrees that it is a good idea to separate your flips from your rental properties from a tax perspective; she also says that it will make your life easier to track expenses and to have that separate bank account or credit card opened. Raj’s app, Hurdlr, allows users to sync bank accounts and credit cards to the app and every time a purchase is made you will be notified and at that point you can tag the expense as personal or business allowing you to keep everything organized. The app will also give real time income tax estimates. If you would like more information about the app or to download it you can visit www.Hurdlr.com or download the app in the iTunes app store or Google Play Store. You can also reach out to Raj via the website or with the chat function side of the app, you can chat directly with him or a member of his team if you have questions or concerns.  

We are joined by Raj Bhaskar today - Former owner of VisualHomes property management software and current founder of HURDLR - a financial tracking app, perfect for small businesses and contract workers.
