Cheap and Very Convenient Web Based Software For Your Business

Project Management:

This is a really easy to use program that allows you to discuss with other team members, set milestones, share files etc. It’s simplicity is the best thing about it and I would be lost without it!

Billing and Invoicing:

This a great, and cheap way of keeping track of clients and invoicing. You need to have a look around to get a good feel for it – but I find it’s integrated payments system and the ability to automatically send both email and regular letter invoices (they put it in an envelope and send it for you with your branding) really convenient.

Customer Relationship Management/Contacts Management:
https://www.highrisehq.com
This is from the same makers of Basecamp. Equally easy to use – each person you are tracking has their own page which you can comment on to remind you of correspondence. You can also associate Tasks with people, and the website will email you reminders when those tasks are due. There is also a neat feature that allows you to forward your emails into your Highrise website. Then Highrise automatically creates a new Contact with the information in that forwarded email.

When you get your new website built you should use Google Analytics to track visitors.

These four programs I swear by, and they are all very easy to set up.
