Do You Forget to Invoice Too?

One of the most difficult parts of the job when it comes to small search marketing shops (or any small business really...) is remembering to send your monthly invoices. Robert passed along a link to me earlier today to point out a great service that helps make this problem go away.

Full Disclosure: - Note that the following company is one of our advertisers. That's not why I'm blogging about them, but I want to be up front about it.

2ndSite is a great tool created by Michael McDerment and Joe Sawada a few years back. Basically, they were in the same boat that most of us were...they needed an easy way to handle their invoicing. So, they created a tool to solve that problem. You can enter client billing information, send invoices via email, set up auto-billing for recurring charges, and even track your project hours.

Pricing is pretty impressive. It starts out with "free." No really, if you've got ten clients or less, there's no cost to use the program. Prices go up from there, but top out at about $20 a month, even if you've got a thousand clients. Not bad, eh?

I just finished setting it the free version to handle a couple retainer consulting deals that I have. Looking forward to not having to remember to send an invoice every month.
