If you’re still chasing invoices as an MSP, you’re not running an IT business. You’re running collections. Automate billing. Get paid instantly. Focus on IT, not chasing money. #MSP #ITBusiness #CashFlow #GetPaidFaster

The most valuable skill in accounting is about to become obsolete. Accountants shouldn't be glorified debt collectors. We’ve built a way to bypass the waiting game entirely. Instant payments are here. Instant payments aren't a feature; they’re the end of the "waiting for a check" era. If you’re still billing by the hour for manual follow-ups, your firm is a dinosaur. Forwardly is turning the "trusted advisor" cliché into a reality. Join the 1% forwardly.com #CloudAccounting #CFOInsights #FirmOfTheFuture

Remember when a client email felt like hitting the jackpot? Or when punch cards proved you worked? Before Uber, taxis were islands of hope. Paper checks felt like magic. Now, AR/AP platforms make payments & invoices instant. #AccountsReceivable #AccountsPayable

1,200 bills/month. Same team. Before: inbox chaos, approval chasing, zero visibility. After: 1/10th of the time. AP isn’t a workload problem. It’s a workflow problem. Automate it, and you move from chasing invoices to controlling cash flow. #AP #Logistics

The silent profit killer in #MSP isn’t sales. It’s friction. Most don’t have a revenue problem. They have a getting paid problem. Manual billing, slow payments, and broken workflows kill cash flow. The best MSPs aren’t chasing payments. They’re making it easy to get paid.

Most service agencies don’t have a revenue problem. They have a collections problem. Invoices go out. Payments get delayed. Someone ends up chasing clients. Modern AR fixes this with automated reminders and faster collection. Stop chasing. #AccountsReceivable #CashFlow

Spreadsheets feel flexible. Until you need to approve a bill. I keep seeing AP approval rules buried in a spreadsheets. Who approves this? Was the limit $5k or $10k? Result: wrong approvals, duplicate payments. Approval policies should live in the workflow, not a spreadsheet.

Most MSPs are accidentally acting as interest-free banks for their clients. 🏦 I know because I ran an IT service provider for years before founding @forwardlyapp. Chasing checks is a waste of your CEO energy. Get paid instantly. Move forward. #MSP #Entrepreneurship

ANNOUNCEMENT: I made a website that’s Yelp for accountants: samslist.co I am looking for a new accountant. Finding one that’s good + fit my needs is hard and time consuming. So, I tweeted out asking who has a good accountant. • +150 people replied w/ an accountant. • So…I called all the accountants listed. Took 2 months. • I asked each accountant: how much they charge, services they provide, who’s a perfect client and more. • I also got some of their clients to give them a review. • Then, I took all that data + hours of work…and turned it into a website. • I also made a simple quiz that shows you 3 accountants that might fit your needs.. The site’s called Sam’s List: samslist.co You can: • See all my research of each accountant • See reviews of the accountant • Contact an accountant • In some cases, book a time to speak with the accountant right on Sam’s List • Ask an accountant a public question on their profile and see their replies from other questions. • Submit an accountant to be reviewed It's all free. The site’s not monetized. No accountants are paying us for reviews. Give it try. If you like it, we’ll keep building it. If you don’t, we’ll kill it. And if you have feedback, comment and let me know. PS: if you use sam’s list and get any value…SHARE THIS TWEET, PLEASE!
