Don't Know How I Lived Without Freshbooks
What do you like best? In short, everything. My entire work life as a small business owner/freelancer has been changed because of Freshbooks' easy and intuitive processes. I especially like the ability to add team members without making them staff, and also the ability to track time in the same software that I invoice, estimate, track expenses etc. Oh, and I LOVE that it syncs with MileIQ - so many good things! What do you dislike? Occasionally, for my line of business, there is a ...

Freshbooks helps my business thrive
What do you like best? Let's face it, most of us don't like accounting and the thought of keeping spreadsheets to manage our books sucks. We want to find and close new deals, do the work, invoice and get paid. However, those who understand their numbers are in the best position to succeed. Freshbooks takes the pain out of the onerous (but crucial accounting tasks with an easy to use system that provides expense recording and organization, invoicing and payment reminders. It's something ...

Freshbooks good invoicing solution for solo entreprenuers
What do you like best? Freshbooks makes it easy to send invoices, either by mail or email, manually or automatically. Clients and customers can pay online via credit card or bank account, or by mail. Each client can log in to see their account summary and invoices. What do you dislike? I dislike that when a client is late with a payment, Freshbooks does not carry over the balance to the next, automatic invoice.
