Thanks for your feedback guys. All of it is 100% valid. There was a reason why I didn't put the actual site www.invoicesmash.com<http://www.invoicesmash.com> in my original request and that's because we know we haven't done ANY of the optimisations that are needed - we weren't quite ready heh. Besides that, we're in beta and the sign up page is beta/placeholder while we get our stuff sorted (such as, call to action and pricing etc). What we'll do is implement a bunch of stuff that we know we have do to the best of our ability and then ask you guys to give feedback. I really appreciate the help guys.

Following on from Ollie's comments: It's actually kinda hard to see where to sign up! Your homepage doesn't have any obvious call to action, it's busy (lack of white space), no real flow. Once I find the tiny 'sign up' link, I'm confronted with a very unappealing wall of text. Why put a letter from you there? That's not why people are clicking the 'sign up' link. I also almost didn't see the 'get started' link as it blends in with the rest of the site design. Make it a button, make it obvious. After clicking the button, I'm taken to the real sign up page - use that instead! Tweak the content and headings ("register email address" - huh? It's a "sign up" page!). Who's using your product? What benefits does it offer ME? How much will it cost? These are critical things I want to know. So I filled out the signup form and it booted me to the homepage.... now what?!

It seems these folks are the unicorns of the Australian startup community. I hope I'm wrong. Freelance folks, consultants, employees moonlighting on the down low... whatever I don't care. Work could be done remote (overseas) I suppose. If you're one of these unicorns or you know of one of them can you drop me an email or flick a referral??
