Create invoices for your clients and get paid online (4/15/10)

Bizonbytes.com was all about invoicing in his infancy. We have spent a good part of our work building an invoicing module that would be simple but at the same time flexible. Now let me tell you what our invoicing module can do for you if you haven’t discovered it yet.

Not sure how to create an invoice then I suggest you use the wizard approach otherwise select the single form approach where everything to create an invoice can be found on one page.
No need to complete the invoice right away since you can easily save your work as draft.
If you use the work order module then you can associate your work order with your invoice description so it’s easier to manage what work as been invoiced or not.
Choose one of many templates for your invoice. We will add more for sure and in the near future we will let members create their own template and share them with other members if they wish to.
You can also schedule your invoice to be sent daily,weekly, monthly and even yearly to your clients.
Once you create an invoice it will automatically create a PDF file version.
If you decide to update your invoice then each time you save it you will create a revision history so no worries to lose track of your changes.
One of my favourite option is to be able to pay and preferably get paid for invoices you sent to your customers. Simply enter your PayPal account email and then when you send an invoice to your client if he or she is also a member then he or she will be able to pay you using PayPal.com.
From your invoice listing you will get some useful data like: Total Not Paid, Total Paid and Total of all your invoices.
But like me you probably love stats so if you go under the report module you will get all kind of useful report you can create and save.
Once you have received a payment for an invoice you can also mark them as Receive Payment and Deposit. Receive Payment is to let you know that you have received the payment and Deposit means you have deposit the payment in your bank account. They are there to help you keep track of your invoices status.

Ok I’ll stop for now but don’t count me out because more option will come your way soon.

Good day everyone.

Houston we have launched (3/27/10)

Many days and nights have been devoted to this moment. Its seems during those 4 years that I wouldn't see the light out of the tunnel but it finally show itself on March 16 2010, a day to remember at least for me.

It all started with a need to manage all my business invoicing. I tried different software and web application but they were not what I was looking for or just simply too expensive for my budget.

So at that moment I've decided ... yeah I can do it!!!! So in the beginning it was supposed to be only an invoice manager web application but OMG that didn't last long once my brain got excited. Ideas came from everywhere; some were good and others just not worth mentioning.

After doing a proper R&D I came to the conclusion that it would be much more lucrative if I open my site to the World Wide Web...duh. With that in mind I decided to focus on the community concept with our mission to create a community of businesses where entrepreneurs can promote and sell their products and services with the world at such an affordable price that they couldn't resist.

At the end even if it doesn't become a success story, I will always be proud of myself for never giving up on those long nights and always believing in myself to accomplish this Titanic application. Believe me when I say that I'll make sure it doesn't end the same way.

So as of now I'm still dedicated at 100% to the success and expansion of Bob but now I can at least relax a little bit and enjoy the fruit of my labour.

Now it's time to go back to work and if you have suggestions give me a shout.

Thanks again to all the people who took the time to support me in any way they could. It's truly appreciated.

Make money with your e-books using Bob (2/2/10)

So you just finished writing your e-book and are ready to expose your work to the mass media, but are wondering... How can I make money with my e-books without giving half of my profits to the distributor? How can I make sure my e-books won’t get distributed freely after I sell them? And most important, how can I promote my e-books and get more visibility without having to spend more money than I can make?

I understand all of these questions because I was at the same place, until I decided to put in motion a solution using no other than good old BizOnBytes.com, better known to some as Bob.

So I put my computer-geek brain at work and surfed the Web to find out about the concerns of selling e-books and to determine how we could distinguish ourselves from all the other distributers.

I came up with what seemed to be the most common concerns, such as pricing, speed of delivery, advertising opportunities and restrictions on content you can publish.

From those came what we are now pleased to offer you as the solution that will make your e-book a success.

We are offering this service free of charge to all members,giving you the tools you need to promote and track your sales and granting you full control over the content. And we won’t judge your work, so feel free to write anything about everything.

Ok, so you are ready to take action. Just follow these steps:

1) If you are a member, log in to bizonbytes.com. Otherwise, sign up for a free account.

2) Once in the member area, look on your left for Company >Products.

3) Create a new product, and under the Product Shipping page, just fill in all the relevant information right under the “Download Info” box.

4) Save your product and wait for the money to pour in!

Now you probably asked yourself "That’s all good, but how do I promote my e-book now?"

Once your product is created and active, all Bob members will be able to view it by using the search tool on top. But I understand that’s just not enough visibility. So we thought about giving you the tools to create your own website. We give you full control over the look and feel of your site. If you want to select one of our templates, that’s fine, but you canal so go nuts and create your own. Once your site is created, simply link your product to your page and voilà, you have yourself a good-looking site up and running in no time. Now your site will be available not only to all members, but also to anyone who has an Internet connection,and that’s a lot of people. One more thing... as a token of our appreciation for people who believe in Bob, we will add a link to your website on our welcome page to help you get more traffic... and again, it won’t cost you a penny!

So if you excel in a subject and like to write, don’t wait and start now! Your e-books could boost your income without loss to all the royalties that other companies charge.

Again, thank you for using Bob... he genuinely appreciates your company!

So how do you write a pitch that will grab our attention? Here are a few simple steps:

2) Once in the members area, go to My Account > Member Profile.
3) Go to the bottom of the page and find the box called Business Profile.
4) Enter the essentials of your business in the box: What kind of products and services do you want to promote? Who are the owners? What do you think the future holds for your business and your industry? What are your goals and objectives? Those are only examples of questions you can answer, and we encourage you to be creative.
5) Save the page and wait for our response.

Good luck to everyone in getting Bob’s nod!
