Intuit Quickbooks Logo

Maximize your office efficiency by using the most widely used bookkeeping software. Every bookkeeper and account is familiar and it integrates seamlessly with almost every app!

You Need A Budget Logo

You Need A Budget

Every business big or small should have a bookkeeper to track finances, but every business owner (for that matter everyone) should have a budget. What's the difference? A bookkeeper records what has happened and budget lets you PLAN FOR THE FUTURE.

Harvest Logo

Harvest - Timesheets & Invoicing

If you take (or plan on taking) retainers or deposit payments that are applied at a later date - then this is the only tool I found that does this effectively. The team also loves that they can see how much time remains on a project and I love the seamless integration with Quickbooks

Loom

Save yourself and your client so much time by eliminating most meetings. I send Loom screen share videos for almost every presentation. That way, my clients can watch it at their discretion - over and over if they wish. I save travel time, and when we do meet, it's much more efficient because they've had a preview. It's a game-changer!

Later

One of my favourite features is its seamless integration with Canva. Together they make creating and scheduling contact a breeze!

Moo - Printing

The easiest and most cost-effective way I found to make BEAUTIFUL on brand printed materials like our amazing business cards - super thick and feel like velvet - everyone says WOW! 

Some (but not all) of these are affiliate links that pay me a commission and in most cases give you a discount. A win-win!
