recommendation
I’m a full-time pet caregiver (since spring 2023) and until now, have tracked everything I’ve been doing (appts, notes, addresses, etc) with my clients with a calendar app, a symbol/color info key and my contact book [on my phone].
Early on I researched software for managing my business and found one that was extremely thorough. It offered a myriad of resources.
A couple months ago I decided to sign up. Of course the price had gone up since I originally looked it up. Ok fine. But, I have found that it is a challenge to “build it” without sitting down and immersing myself for hours at a time. Then the next time I would sit down I felt like I had to start learning everything over again.
In about a year or two (depending on the state of the U.S.) I’m planning to move closer to family and I figure at that point I can do a lengthy deep-dive on this software and add clients as I get them.
Of course, I still have to find a way to simplify and consolidate my schedule and clients, track my mileage, and have clean financial information.
Does anyone use or have a recommendation for less complicated software I can use in the meantime?
