Crunching Magento

It’s late again and here I am crunching data in the http://shop.edupov.com

We are using Magento for the backend of the shop and it’s a little tricky but once you got your head around how it’s categorized and how it operates it is a smooth CRM of sorts.

I’ve been updating the ‘tags’ feature and beefing out the EDUPOV  Terms & Conditions page which is a learning curve in it’s own right. The shop is almost functional…..just need to get the payment gateway working which is always tricky.

A long way from the pedagogy conversation. Kim Flintoff however does articulate the transition well….far better than I’ll ever have time to do so.

We  are almost at trading status as a company with the formation of the Board of Directors, some legal jargon and lots of money out the door to register our entity.

I’m looking forward to my lion share of the $1 per fortnight we will bring in as wages over the first 6 months.

It’s bringing out the best in us.

Luckily we’ve grown up  analogue & digital.
