Ugh... accounting...

So am entering all my sales into FreshBooks. It is a slow a tedious process. What accounting software does everybody use and the pros and cons of each? Or should I be disciplined enough to enter may sales into FreshBooks at the show? It is a cloud program after all...

  • Iam looking for either a IPad or Word work book for my sales which is the best and what type of program.  Also for inventory with a photo of the piece and using my Square D. Thanks for your help

  • Have you looked into using SalesVu (salesvu.com) (similar to Square) for your transaction processing?  It stores all of your sales data and allows you to run sales reports.  I just got it and used it for my last show, and I really like it - it made transaction processing much easier (I was previously using a knuckle-buster and calling in sales after the show), and I really like the sales reports that I can generate.  It also provides the ability to import your data into QuickBooks, but I haven't used that feature.  For more info you can view the discussion at http://www.artfairinsiders.com/profiles/blogs/the-truth-about-credi...

  • I keep a FileMaker database for each print and edition. When a photograph sells, it's noted, along with customer data. My sales batches for each show go into Quicken, not individually, but as they are paid by the merchant account provider. A matching invoice goes into Quicken to balance the payment.
