Invoice With Smartphone or Tablet Linked To Xero Accounting Online

Invoice Your Customer At The Jobsite With Smartphone Or Tablet And Xero Accounting Online

The Old Way Contractors Invoiced was as much or more work than doing of the job itself. In the past you had to make notes, collect customer information, go to your office, open QuickBooks or whatever construction accounting software you are using, wait for everything to load up and then try to find the paperwork, open the invoice screen and fill it out and if you were lucky you could email it from QuickBooks to your customer. Then you waited for the check in the mail to arrive to get paid.

Save Time And Money By Invoicing With Smartphone Linked To Xero Accounting Online

Three Things Contractors Need Cash, Cash And More Cash When you or your employee finishes a job you need to get paid and I mean the sooner the better! Use a smartphone, electronic tablet or web enabled device, create the invoice and email it! Xero Accounting Online will have updated your Sales Report, Profit & Loss Report, Balance Sheet Report and a lot more reports before you finished reading this sentence.

The Key To Making Xero Accounting Online Work For Construction Contractors is having it properly setup and maintained. Invest the money and let us do it for you, right, the first time! Don't be fooled into thinking just because it is somewhat easy for small retail companies that it will be easy for you to setup Xero Accounting Online for your construction company. The reason is simple; the difference between a construction accounting and regular accounting is similar to the difference between a shovel and a backhoe.

Thinking Anyone Can Do A Xero Setup For Construction is like thinking anyone can get on a backhoe and run it. Especially if you have watched the professionals do it for several years as I have because they make it look so "Easy..." Famous last words....

In A Failed Attempt To "Save Money" I rented a backhoe, once, and ripped several underground utility lines out of the ground and caused a lot of damage in less than thirty minutes. The total cost of the job skyrocketed and let's just say I understand the value of professional services and should have known better...ah the "Halo Effect"...I am so good at construction accounting of course I can operate a backhoe...NOT!

Don't Try To Save Money On Construction Accounting because it is a lot harder than it looks. for more on this click on "Construction Accounting Vs. Regular Accounting" and read an article I wrote about it. A word to the wise could save you a lot more money than I lost trying to operate a backhoe.

Do You Own A Small Construction Contracting Company?

Perhaps you own a service and repair firm that specializes in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, or maybe a handyman service or someone who does small construction projects that last from a few hours to a few days and you only need to give your customer or client one invoice?

If this describes you then perhaps Xero Accounting Online is a better fit for you than QuickBooks. We offer both Xero Accounting Online and QuickBooks bookkeeping services for construction contractors and have found the dividing line is how you get paid.
