Your Recipe for Success

Do your prep: Save time and increase productivity to the cloud

Moving your business systems to the cloud will save you time and increase productivity. We’re all guilty of seeking reviews before trying something new.

There are a host of reasons why this will save you time, and make it easier to run your business.

All of the solutions we put forward to our clients are all cloud-based, meaning that you can access them from your laptop and even your smart phone. You have access to your data in real-time at the click of a button. Have an unlimited number of users who you can pick to view this information to keep your information up to date.

Get the right reports

It’s important to have a system that will create meaningful reports for you, so you don’t have to manually create them. Too many restaurant and cafe owners that we meet have been trying to understand their business operations with clunky spreadsheets that don’t always add up.

The reports in most cloud accounting systems have been developed especially for restaurant owners meaning they show relevant metrics; are easy to understand and are updating live to provide accurate, real-time information. You can access your balance sheet and profit and loss statements straight from the palm of your hand!

Make payroll simple for everyone

As an owner, you want a simple system, and employees want an easy way to submit their hours and see what they are getting paid. Take the pain out of “pain-roll” by implementing a cloud based payroll solution.

Our cloud based payroll platforms are compatible with all mobile devices.

• All data is secure, and you can approve timesheets all from your smartphone, no matter where you are.
• Timesheet approvals can be done with the click of an iPhone
• Employee Portals mean that employees can check on their details and past payslips at anytime they like

Tailor your software to best suit your requirements through a wide variety of add-ons

The great thing about the cloud is that there are over 450 3rd party add-ons which you can integrate to best suit your needs! Some include Shopify, Square & E-way – just to name a few! Find out more about add-ons by clicking here

Eliminate the need for paper bills and receipts – paper is a thing of the past!

Receipt Bank is an add-on that we provide to all of our clients which allows for you to take a photo, or email direct a copy of your receipt or bill! No more losing receipts or trying to make out what those digits say under those food smears!

Shoot your customers an invoice on the spot

With these cloud platforms, you have the power to raise invoices and quotes on the spot! No more hearing excuses from your customers that they didn’t receive the invoice as you can see when the customer has opened it up and how many times!

Pay your suppliers and bills on time

Have complete control of when you want to pay an invoice through the function of payment dates allowing you to conveniently manage your cash-flow! Eliminate the need to argue payments with your suppliers with everything on record for reference!
