Invoicing in the cloud for ease of access. Xero: This is my choice for invoicing. It is internet based so accessible from all devices - you can even send an invoice when you leave a client having completed some work - how efficient is that?

Do you make notes on things you have heard, recommended to do or read, or even your everyday “To Do List”?

I saw a presentation last week that actually made me cringe. I love to sit and hear about other people and their business or just an “interesting area of their work” but when they have gone to the trouble of preparing a presentation – and it is just terrible – my heart goes out to them.

If you're like me I use lists for everything - from shopping to business targets and including daily/weekly things to do for my business (and sometimes even for my private/family life when things seem to overwhelm me).
