Here’s me, 13 months ago:
I have to bill clients. And, uh, keep track of that. Taxes, line items, online payments … yeah, I have no idea what I’m doing. Sell the house, honey. We’re moving the kids into a cardboard box in the park. Yes, corrugated. No seriously, it’ll be awesome.
Here’s me today:
Hon, run down to the printer. It’s time to review what’s outstanding for the month. While we’re at it, lets review this quarter’s expenses and estimates. Have we paid all our contractors?
Freshbooks made it possible. For more than a year, this awesome web app has been my companion. Client management, time tracking, expenses, estimates and more are so ridiculously easy there’s no reason to not use it. The coolest part is when I can begin time tracking with MiniBooks for the iPhone. Just set up a timer, click to start and begin working. When you’re done it’s synchronized with your Freshbooks account.
If your clients prefer paper invoices (dinosaurs still roam the earth), Freshbooks handles that, too. In fact, they send you a demo paper invoice when you sign up, just so you can check it out. How cool is that? Lastly, I’ll say that the support guys they’ve got on Twitter are top-notch (I’m not the only one who thinks so). I’ve had questions answered in manner of minutes.
As I’ve said in my sponsorship page, I only promote products that are worth your time and attention. Freshbooks is on the top of that list. Thanks for being awesome guys, and for keeping my kids out of a cardboard box.
