How did you get a visa?

Feel free to email me for more details (in my profile). Basically, I hired an immigration lawyer and created a hugely detailed business plan.

at what stage was your startup when you moved and how easy/difficult is the visa process for British going to America?

Pretty early, but it had good profits. That's what the US Embassy likes to see most (other than the fact you're going to hire Americans).

Please everyone stay in the UK. We need more startups outside London - it's crowded and not a good place to work.

I attempted to get a startup going in Nottingham (we could have been salesforce!) in about '02 but managed to fluff it up miserably thanks to my inexperience.
