Squeeze more out of your summer (and your business)

Here in the UK we often get the short straw when it comes to summer weather. It can feel like we’re either sweltering in record-breaking temperatures or taking refuge from grey skies and drizzle. So it’s no surprise that when the weather does hit that summer sweet spot we’re keen to make the most of it.

At FreeAgent, we know how important it is to keep one eye on business when you’re on the move, which is why the FreeAgent mobile app is optimised for working from anywhere, whatever the weather.

Here are just a few of the ways you can effortlessly balance picnics with projects and banking with the beach this summer. Let’s dive in.

Get an overview at a glance

Part of the beauty of FreeAgent is the software’s ability to connect the dots between many areas of your business and present you with a single succinct summary of what’s going on. As soon as you log in to the FreeAgent mobile app, you’ll instantly get a snapshot of your cashflow, income and costs, as well as a reminder of your upcoming tax deadlines in the Tax Timeline. From the overview screen, you can easily tap into your banking, money in, money out, or into invoice or contact creation. You’ll always know what’s going on with your business, wherever you are.

Master expenses on the move

From iced lattes to desk fans, whatever expenses your business needs to keep moving during the summer months, make sure that you’re tracking them with ease, with the FreeAgent mobile app. It lets you snap photos of expense receipts on the move, meaning that you don’t need to hang on to every single receipt - especially when it’s hot outside and you don’t want to carry around a big pile of receipts. The software will even extract the key details for you automatically, giving you more time to focus on which ice cream flavour to choose next.

Create and send invoices in a flash

There might’ve been a time when you needed to log on to your laptop and fire up Microsoft Word or Google Docs to create an invoice - and that’s before it even came to attaching your file to an email. Luckily, those days are a thing of the past, and invoicing can now be a total breeze. With the FreeAgent mobile app, you can quickly and easily create invoices, and then send them to your customer automatically - without even having to leave the app.

So when you’re packing up your sunny day supplies this summer - along with your cold drink, sun cream and hat - make sure to pack the FreeAgent mobile app too.
