In my conversation with Nathan, we discuss what he's up to now, three years after the FreeUp acquisition. He describes how he started EcomBalance and Outsource School during the pandemic, the nuances of bookkeeping and accounting for e-commerce businesses, and life as a new foster parent! Nathan has a ton of energy and a passion for customer service, instilled during his time working at Firestone. He carries that with him today in the way he graciously caters to the clients, customers, and freelancers of his various companies. Enjoy my conversation with Nathan Hirsch!
