Faster Invoicing
An association with a membership of several hundred mentioned they were invoicing memberships fees manually. It was taking days to complete, was prone to typos and costing postage. We setup a new system using their existing Word, Excel and Outlook so they could automatically generate a standard invoice from members’ details charges and email out directly.
It only took a couple of hours to setup;
- has saved days of time
- has saved £100’s in postage, stationery
- is much more accurate
Faster invoicing means better cashflow – sometimes its just about getting the basics right.
