Does Your Home Bookkeeping Business Need a Fax?
Posted by: admin Post date: November 24th, 2009
So I signed up for an eFax online system to receive all my faxes. I still use my home phone number (and fax machine) to scan and send out my faxes.
Do you find yourself struggling with how to setup a fax for your home bookkeeping business? Should you get a separate line? Or should you get a distinctive ring fax number?
When I first started out, I struggled with this issue as well. I tried the distinctive fax number system and that worked for awhile. Then I started getting really busy, so between my phone and fax ringing constantly, it turned into a total nightmare and drove me nuts.
So I signed up for an eFax online system to receive all my faxes. I still use my home phone number (and fax machine) to scan and send out my faxes.
But now all my incoming faxes get sent to my email in a PDF format. Plus, I get to decide which ones to print out and which ones to delete (saves on paper). Problem solved — to the tune of $12 a month.
Also, I archive my faxes in my email for several months so that I can always go back and reprint a fax in case I’ve misplaced something (this has actually saved my butt a couple of times). You can’t do that with a normal fax machine.
So, if you’re struggling with the same fax issue for your bookkeeping business, I highly suggest you check out an online fax service. It’s not complicated, even if you’re not very tech-savvy.
I use eFax and they’ve been very good to work with. I always receive my faxes on time and they charge my credit card automatically each month so it’s totally hassle-free.
