Some lovely photos from this week's walks!
It was a wet weekend but our steppers’ spirits weren’t dampened, and our teams managed to finish the first week of the autumn Step Count Challenge strong with a combined total of 485,906 steps 🥾. Well done, teams! @walkingscotland.bsky.social #StepCountChallenge

I got to hit the trails with my colleagues this weekend! Feeling very lucky to have such great guides in both editing and exploring.
This weekend, Prepressers got together for another hill walk!

They took a circular woodland route from Macrosty Park in Crieff through the autumn leaves, and the walkers were even treated to a rainbow along the way 🌈.

Last week, Prepressers attended Publishing Scotland's summer drinks reception, bidding farewell to outgoing CEO Marion Sinclair and celebrating BookSource's 30th anniversary. It was lovely to hear about two very inspiring journeys while networking over cake.🎂 #PrepressOutings

We had some fun off the clock yesterday and explored the Tay! (It was warmer than it looks).
Yesterday some of our Prepressers took to the Tay for a kayaking tour of Perth!🛶

They paddled from Willowgate right into the city centre, enjoyed spectacular views of Moncreiffe Island and even had time for a dip in the water at sunset.🌇 #PrepressPeople #PrepressOutings

At Prepress we understand the importance of getting up and moving during the workday. Our lunchtime workout class helps us destress while taking time away from screens. Lucky for us, more movement = more steps! Here's today's team ready for their barre class.🩰 #StepCountChallenge

Let’s talk about invoicing. When done properly, it’s nothing to apologise for!

Cash flow and financial stability are key to a thriving business, but good invoicing practice can also help foster professional relationships.

The business of being paid: invoicing without apology
The ability to talk about money is a curious thing. Some people feel uncomfortable discussing financial matters – whether it’s others knowing how much you're paid or, in the case of business, asking d...
