As I use invoicing software, which gives an option to send invoice by email right after creating, I don’t need to print invoices out. So I store all sent invoices into invoicing software. It is safer than saving it somewhere in folder on my computer. Computer can brake, but all data of the invoicing software is stored on server. The backup of all my data is made by the invoicing program every day, so I feel secured. I know that some people don’t trust electronic storage of the documents. Physical storage, when you can touch documents, seems more secure. But it has a lot of disadvantages. First of all it takes physical place to store all the documents. If the enterprise is small it is not a big problem, but for large one there should be additional storehouse, which makes additional costs. The most important advantage of online storage of the documents is immediate retrieval.

The same way I store all data about my customers and products. I have something like database in my invoicing software, where I can add or remove information about my products and customers. It is very convenient to have all data in one program. As I register received payments also in invoicing software, I have all information about invoicing in one place.

I am going to introduce some more software into my business. Maybe it will be some time tracking program and program for receiving and processing incoming invoices. I don’t know much in programming, but I think that it is possible to connect all my software somehow. Maybe it can be done exactly by time tracking program. Thus I will see all invoices I have to pay for, all incoming payments, sent invoices that are close to due date, etc. It will be good if I will see all actual information in one program, because it takes time to check emails, invoicing software and other software.

Have you thought about how much paper do you use when sending paper bills? You need paper to print your invoice and envelope to send it. It is still ok if you send 10 invoices per month. But imagine how much paper is spent for 500 invoices monthly. And not always this paper is being recycled afterwards. Using invoicing software is easier and “healthy” for the environment. Invoicing software also reduces your costs, because you don’t have to use post service to send an invoice. Besides that, sending invoices via e-mail is much faster than doing the same via post. As you see, invoicing software brings you a lot of advantages.

Usually you need to pay monthly payment for using the invoicing software. But still it is cheaper than post service and takes less time to invoice your customers. If you have some problems with invoicing software, support team will always help you. Maybe you need some special features, then it is possible to contact support team and discuss it with them. The keywords for invoicing software are “easy” and “fast”. You will be surprised, how you can save time on invoicing and spend it to develop your business.

The festival takes part in the middle of April. It lasts from 13 to 15 April, but if you want some more, go to Chiang Mai where you can enjoy Songkran about 6 days. But before you rent a house in Thailand find out about unusual traditions of this festival and decide whether to participate in it or not.

Songkran is probably the most wet festival in the world. The main tradition of Songkran is throwing of water. When people pour water they show you respect and bless you, so don’t be angry with them. In addition they can smear you with clay and talc. Participants usually wear colourful clothes. If you will choose to rent a house in Thailand you will probably have some privacy and will be dry at least in your apartments.

Songkran is not just funny tradition of throwing of water and smearing others. It has the meaning and religious aspects. Songkran means “change”. Season is changing. The hot season gives way to the season of rains. Water is symbol of purification. That’s why people try to clean each other from all bad and prepare for renewal. People also go to the church and try to spend time with their families on Songkran.

Now you know essential things about Songkran. You can prepare transparent plastic bags for you purse, phone and camera to make them safe. Also keep in mind that the prices for apartments will increase for the period when Songkran is celebrated. So find and rent a house in Thailand in good time!
