How do you manage a hosting and software development company that has staff in three different countries and two different time zones, all while you’re in a different country yourself?

Marc Gadsdon on Zimbra, WordPress and Managing a Distributed Team

In Episode 09 of TubbTalk, I speak with Marc Gadsdon of In-Tuition, a data and email hosting provider and software development company. InTuition is a business with several purpose-designed locations in the UK and staff distributed across the world.

In our conversation, Marc and I discuss:-

• Zimbra – one of the best-kept secrets in solutions for IT Solution Providers and Managed Service Providers (MSP’s).
• Zimbra’s powerful integrating abilities, ease of use for file sharing, communicating and keeping your diary up to date.
• What Zimbra can offer over Exchange and Office365 and what it can offer in terms of building value for your business.
• Why Zimbra is very reliable at protecting and recovering your data.
• Premium WordPress Hosting and how the right host can shave time off your website loading time.
• The challenges of managing a remote team in Manchester, London and Canada when you’re based in Andorra.
• Travel caching, Tim Ferriss style life-hacks and becoming better at planning when on the road.
• Why great communication is key when you work remotely from your business.
