This is something I am really working hard on - I have hang files for each Biz - then inside each hang file have folders - each for different things - My orders for cash and carry, samples,sales ades - customer orders - mileage-receipts for biz expenses from stores (such as stamps, food items, envelopes, mailing, money orders, paper, printer ink etc)-one for crat show, fairs, expos, festival fees(with what Biz I did at each show)Tables and table coverings all supplies for the show that but not product cost- just things for the shows
I have a purse size calendar book I carry that has important dates writen down - shows, parties - costs - and this allows to keep trac of mileage
i have a notebook beside the 'puter that I am CONSTANLY writing things down on - then go back an put it where it goes in relation to what Biz - I also keep recipe cards with Customer info in Each folder as not ALL are customers for ALL my Biz - this way I know what new cattys or specials to send as they come out for different Biz
Not sure if I am doing it correctly or if there really is a correct way - but it is working so far
Hope others share thier tips!
