Show Notes
Mike McDerment ’94 is an entrepreneur and the co-founder and board chair of FreshBooks, Briza and a new company in the works.
Mike learned many valuable lessons of success, structure and hard work at Crescent. His time at Crescent led him to start multiple businesses, eventually leading him to create the software that is now FreshBooks.
FreshBooks is the #1 accounting software in the cloud, designed exclusively for freelancers and growing service-based business owners. Built-in 2003 after he accidentally saved over an invoice, Mike spent 3.5 years growing FreshBooks from his parents’ basement. Since then, over 30 million people have used FreshBooks to save time billing, and collect billions of dollars.
This episode is hosted by Jason Steel ’93, and recorded and edited by Andrew Loukas ’27. Coyote Conversations is made possible by Carson McGregor, Communication Technology Faculty and the Crescent Alumni Executive.
