![]() ![]() It’s really the ultimate small business tool for all invoicing needs. Invoice2Go will automatically mark invoices as paid when they are paid, and also allows you to request a deposit etc. I can’t imagine a better solution for creating invoices, creating a database of clients, sending invoices, keeping track of all income and payments received, creating reports, viewing monthly/quarterly/yearly statistics and reports, exporting documents for your accountant /tax prep person, accepting payments via credit/debit cards and PayPal, as well as tracking expenses and other finance-related needs for any small business. I’ve been using Invoice2Go for over five years now and I have no plans or desire to find something better. All data is synced via the cloud for seamless operation between all devices. Invoice2Go offers a smartphone/tablet app as well as the ability to work directly via the website on a laptop/desktop computer which can sometimes be faster when you have to power through some invoices with detailed info. I wanted to be able to create invoices on my computer as they happen, but then be able to manage and send invoices via my smartphone or tablet the moment the client approves a project and/or asks for the invoice, no matter where I was or what I was doing. I found a decent 3rd party option for managing invoices but when the iPhone came out, I knew there could be something better. When PayPal came around, that made things a little easier but invoicing exclusively via PayPal isn’t a great solution. I honestly don’t even remember how I did it back then but it probably wasn’t good. Invoice2Goīefore I officially put my business on the books with the government, I didn’t have a great system for invoicing, or a great need for one really. These are listed in no particular order of importance but I thought it would be good to start with the app I use for invoicing since in many ways, this is the heart of any business in order to keep the lights on and doors open month after month, year after year. Since I’m a Mac user, some of these app suggestions are Mac-only but in most cases, a Windows equivalent can be found, and this article can still be helpful to Windows users by getting the ideas flowing. Writing and reading about plugins, DAWs, techniques and other audio-focused can be fun but I thought it was time for a more practical article about some of these under-appreciated apps that have helped speed up my workflow and keep things organized. Recently I was thinking about how devastating it would be, and how lost I would be without one of these apps in particular so I thought it would be good to write this article and do a roundup of essential non-audio apps to help run your audio business and sustain your audio career. However, as my business and workflow have increased to a more fast-paced nature, and now that nearly every aspect of life be it personal or business is online, it’s only natural that there are some excellent time-saving and workflow-improving apps and services out there. Years ago I didn’t really use any notable non-audio apps in my day-to-day workflow. ![]()
