So today I had the great privilege of meeting up with Harry Brelsford of SMB Nation, while he was in London on the way to South Africa. Being a South African my self I was particularly interested in his trip to Cape Town where he will ride the Argus Cycle Tour . Good Luck Harry..

Whilst I was with Harry this afternoon, we discussed the UK SMB market and what a great opportunity there is for small businesses to thrive by providing SBS2008 to their customers, even during this down turned economy. We also discussed how groups like HTG can really help small businesses grow in this economy by leveraging the skills of their peers and learning best practises from each other. For more information on HTG, why not visit www.htgmembers.com or contact me and I will make sure that you get in touch with the right person.

The main reason for my meeting with Harry was to pick up my personally signed copy of his new book, Small Business Server 2008, Blueprint which has now finally been released. This book is available at http://smbnation.com/Publications/Books/SBS2008Blueprint/tabid/88/Default.aspx. Having just read the first few pages of this book, I can see that it will be another brilliant book to add to my ever expanding collection of SMBNation Press Books.
