Invoice Place

A special thank you to Zena Hockley for her mention of Invoiceplace on the REAL Women blog in the post Invoicing made easier. Excerpt below -

Book keeping is a mundane task but essential to running a business efficiently. Without it no accounting information can be compiled for the tax authorities and of course, you can’t get paid by your clients!

In the start-up years, administering invoices and collecting payments might seem like a doddle but as the business grows, keeping on top of your sales and purchases can become time consuming taking you away from your focus – making money!

MemoToMe.com is a free, simple and reliable email reminder service that has been running since 1998. Memo to Me is very useful to ensure that you never forgot an important date or task. Reminders can be set-up on the following schedule -

• One-Time
• Daily
• Weekly
• Every Few Weeks
• Monthly
• Yearly

Sign-up is free and upgrades are available to a paid Platinum account which includes extra features such as SMS reminders and sending a reminder to a group of people. A comparison of the free and Platinum subscriptions can be found here.

Invoice Place – Your Office Anywhere You Are

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.

Thank you for the review Lindy!

A big thank you to Cindy Tonkin from The Consultants’ Consultant for the review of Invoiceplace in her April 2007 ezine -

Invoicing from anywhere

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?).

But if you’re happy with what you have and just need a nice looking invoice, try Microsoft’s templates for Word and Excel.

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.

Thanks again Rob!
