Great new service coming for sole traders
Are you a sole trader? Are you really good at what you do, but don't have the time, or the skills to produce professional invoices?
You don't have to employ a secretary, or a temp! Just pay for the services you use.
All you need is a phone line, a fax machine and a pad of paper and a telephone.
Once you're set up as a user of the service and have discussed your needs with me, you can fax me anything - just add your customer code to the top of the sheet - and it will be typed, posted, e-mailed, faxed, or just recorded and stored for later. Alternatively, you can phone my voicemail line and dictate me a letter or give me an instruction.
This means that at the end of a hard working day, all you have to do is fax over your receipts, any quotations and letters you need typing and everything else will be done for you.
At the end of your business year, you can have a spreadsheet of all your receipts and invoices, along with copies of all your receipts. That's an excellent insurance against loss or damage to your paperwork.
So you can get on with doing what you want to do, and someone else will do all the boring, behind-the-scenes work for you.
Get in contact with me by the following means:
colchestervirtualsecretary@googlemail.com
Fax me on 0871 522 7163
Leave me a message on 0844 8844910 and I'll call you back

Do great things on your computer for free
You have probably heard of something called Shareware, which is a type of software that is free to use and redistribute to anyone else. The software is usually limited to a number of uses, or it will have certain features disabled, to encourage you to buy the full copy of the software. The idea being that you like it so much that you upgrade.
Similar to Shareware, there is Adware. Software that is free to download, use, distribute, etc - but there is an advert stream from the internet, sponsoring the software and allowing you to use it. A bit annoying, huh?
And then there is FREEWARE. This type of software is developed as a taster, usually, for an improved product which is available for purchase. Some FREEWARE is developed out of the sheer good will of industrious coders out there.
What's good about FREEWARE is that you don't get the annoying nag screens, adverts, or disabled features. There's a lot of rubbish out there, but there are some excellent sites that rate the software and allow users to comment on their experiences with the software.
You can find FREEWARE that will do virtually everything you need on your machine - either as well, or better than, the commercially accepted standard. For instance - many people are now switching over from Microsoft Office, to www.OpenOffice.org.
One small word of warning... be sure to read the licence terms and conditions. FREEWARE is usually fine to use for personal means, however some FREEWARE is not allowed to be used for commercial purposes. You have been warned.
Here is a list of the software I recommend for a basic office machine:
www.OpenOffice.org
A real alternative to Microsoft Office - Word, Excel and Powerpoint. There are certain limitations in their database software, however you can use it to connect to an .mdb file (This is the type of file created by Microsoft Access for databases). In addition, there is a formula presentation tool and a drawing tool.
Bullzip PDF Printer
Bullzip produce a printer driver which you can install on your computer. When you click the print icon in any software, Bullzip provides a virtual printer that converts what you want to print into a .pdf file. Try it... it's really good.
More recommendations coming soon.
