We never would've thought a software was going to make us more money but here we are Scrooge McDucking it into piles of gold coins. 

Seriously tho, if you are self-employed and not using a software that puts all your billing, all your customers, all your pricing, all your marketing and som much more in one place then you are almost for sure wasting time and losing money. Take it from us, we used to be that way too.
