The problem it solves

You take orders through a form, but then someone still has to look up the customer, build the invoice, and send it by hand. That extra step delays getting paid and eats into time you'd rather spend on the work itself.

Who it fits

A freelancer, consultant, or small service business that takes orders through a form and bills through QuickBooks.

How it works

  1. A customer submits an order or service request through your form
  2. The system checks QuickBooks to see if the customer already exists
  3. It creates a new customer record or updates the existing one
  4. It looks up the ordered product or service and builds an invoice
  5. The invoice is emailed straight to the customer

We can build this. But should you?
