This comes under the heading of Great Things I Found and is a simple - and simply classic way for the small business owner juggling demands of meeting clients on the road, taking orders and making something of an effort to keep the money coming in while you’re doing it.
Enter Invoice Place, where you can do your invoices on the run, no matter how far you are from the office. A natural for contractors, professionals, consultants and anyone who is not chained to an office and an accounting package all day every day.
If you travel a lot, or want to invoice in multiple currencies, check out invoiceplace.com. Looks professional, and you can export the invoices to pdf format or whatever you need. Good solution if you’re travelling without a PC (does anyone except me not own a laptop any more?).
A special thanks to Robert Dawson for the write-up he posted on his blog about Invoiceplace. Rob succinctly describes what this service is all about -
InvoicePlace provides a great, simple, easy to use tool to help enter and keep track of invoices. It works really well for people and businesses send invoices, and want to be able to manage these electronically.
It is now possible to send up to five extra invoices, quotes and/or receipts when emailing your customers. This feature is only available to customers using our free and monthly subscription accounts.
If you do a lot of business with a certain customer you no longer have to send multiple emails with each invoice, quote or receipt - save time and send one email.
This can be used to include receipts for payments received when emailing your current invoice. Another way this could be used is to send more than one quote to a customer.
You can only include extra invoices, quotes and receipts that are for the customer you are emailing. It is not possible to accidentally send an invoice to the wrong customer - which would be embarrassing!

We have kindly received another testimonial about Invoiceplace from Greg Saikaly. Thanks Greg!
I have just started my own business and Invoice Place has been a GOD send. Through this fantastic and easy to use system I have been able to invoice all my clients, & keep track of invoices all without too much time or effort.
I would highly recommend Invoiceplace.com to any self employed, or small business owner that is looking to operate in a smart, effective & professional manner.
You also have a great support network in Scott who is always willing to listen to customer comments that may help in making an already great system even more easier for the end user. Thanks for Invoiceplace, Scott.

“Since we have signed on with the invoice place system our invoice time has been freed up significantly. What used to be a tedious task that we did via invoice books has turned into a fast and cost effective process that is easy to track. Other programs just didn’t fit our business size and needed extensive training to understand and set up. The invoice place system fits our business, our customers are happy, our accountant is happy and so are we.”
