    No guidebook, no shortcuts—starting a company is like raising a child Nothing prepares you for starting a company—just like nothing prepares you for becoming a parent. 👉 I shared my journey in this article as I reflect on my return to Symend following maternity leave. Before Symend became a company, it started as a question: Can we transform delinquency into a customer-first experience that benefits both enterprises and the customers they serve? Like parenting, building a startup is a constant cycle of breakthroughs and unexpected challenges—from securing our first client to scaling a solution that businesses now rely on to engage with countless past-due customers. Some lessons only come from experience. 🔍 How do you navigate uncertainty?  ⚡ What happens when "the plan" no longer works?  🛠️ Why is adaptability the real key to growth?  I wrote about this journey—the lessons, the surprises, and what it really takes to turn an idea into impact. If you're a founder, leader, or just someone facing a challenge that feels bigger than you—this one's for you. 💬 Your turn: What’s the biggest unexpected lesson you've learned in your career? Drop it in the comments!

    This UK-based study led by Associate Professor of Economics Michael D. Grubb confirms what we know at Symend—timely, proactive digital engagement reduces financial distress. Overdrafts often result from inattention, not intent. Simple alerts can save consumers millions, but Symend's hyper-personalized, data-driven communication takes it further by helping customers avoid additional fees and get back on track. Financial institutions have an opportunity to build trust and drive better outcomes through smarter, more empathetic engagement. What’s your take?

    Are your debt recovery strategies backfiring? In behavioural science, perverse incentives happen when a strategy meant to drive a positive outcome unintentionally creates a negative one. For example, sending an aggressive past-due message might seem like a good way to motivate payments—but it can actually lead to panic, confusion, and an influx of costly inbound calls. 📞💸 At Collected Innovation Manchester, we’ll explore how the study of human behaviour, combined with AI, deepens understanding of consumer situations and leads to improved collections outcomes. Join us on April 2nd to hear insights from industry leaders at NewDay, Revolut, Octopus Energy, and ROStrategy, as they share how to create impactful strategies. 📍 Want to be part of the conversation?

    🚀 Big conversations, even bigger outcomes! Last week, Symend joined forces with Microsoft at their Mountain View campus for a Customer Business Outcomes (CBO) workshop—and it was nothing short of game-changing. As part of Microsoft’s Digital Native program, we gathered senior leaders from across our business to align on key priorities, opportunities, and the best path forward. With expert facilitators Carlisle Withers and Juliet Helms leading the way, we tackled: 🔹 Problem identification—getting to the root of our biggest challenges 🔹 Defining high-impact focus areas to maximize value 🔹 Aligning on measurable outcomes that drive real business impact The results? Clear next steps and actionable insights from the Microsoft team—setting the stage for even greater collaboration ahead. A huge shoutout to Mike Gaal, Ravi Sudhakar Kambhampati , and the Microsoft team for your support—and to our Symend team for bringing their A-game. Special thanks to Adrianne Erdman, Greg Carnie, and Julia Chow (Mailander)—our incredible Microsoft account team—for making this partnership even stronger! #Symend #Microsoft #DigitalNative #Partnership #StrategicCollaboration #CBOWorkshop
