Are you using Evernote yet?
I am now in love with Evernote. I have always struggled with receipts, both business and personal. Evernote has proven itself to be a Godsend. And guess what it is free! You can upgrade to a paid subscription but the free option works well. This wonderful program has an app for the iPhone and iPad. It captures audio, text, and picture data. With Evernote, I can now do the following, anywhere anytime.
- Project Plan
- Goal Plan
- Receipt organization
- Share specific files electronically
- Set timers.
Trust me, you will love it. It will help you, not only for business but for personal use as well. What are you doing to help with your organization and productivity? Leave your comments below.

Cloud Accounting: Saves Time and Energy for Busy Mompreneurs
Who likes accounting and or bookkeeping? Very few of us. We would rather spend our days creating, talking to customers, even negotiating with vendors, instead of keeping our books straight. But as entrepreneurs the love and passion of business creativity comes with the day to day grind of keeping books.
There are many software programs available that can help make this job easier. Of particular interest to me are the programs that are in the cloud. Why the cloud?
Accounting in the cloud saves time and energy:
- Your bookkeeper or CPA could have instant access to your transactions, without your having to provide this information,
- Your assistant can enter your information from anywhere, no need to set up extra office space,
- You can enter your information from anywhere,
- Tax time is less hectic because most of the work is already done,
- Invoicing is seamless and can be done while you are still out in the field,
- Payments to vendors can be seamless as well.
All in all, bookkeeping in the cloud can help you and your business by saving you time and boundless energy. The following are some companies that offer cloud computing. This list is not exhaustive.
- Fresh Books
- Kashoo
- Less Accounting
- QuickBooks
- Xero
- Zoho Books
I have had experience with QuickBooks and Xero. I am in the process of transferring to Xero because seamelessly integrates with my bank; it uploads transactions from Checkfront; it updates retail sales and transactions. Also, it is currently hosted in the cloud for $19.95 per month compared with Quickbooks Enterprise full desktop version cloud hosting which begins at 54.99 per user per month.
Are you in the cloud for accounting? If not why not? If you are in the cloud, what are you using? As busy Mompreneurs, we can all save time and energy by spending less time on our books. Cloud accounting can help us. What do you think? Leave your comments below.

5 Ways to Increase Productivity in Business or Home
We are all distracted. Just recently my husband and I had a serious conversation about the fact that he was jumping from project to project and nothing was getting done. I too find myself distracted. Yesterday, I picked the kids up from school and rather than engage them in conversation, instead, I am still thinking of something I need to do for the business. My third daughter got frustrated and said "mommy please look me in the eyes, I haven't seen you all day." And while cooking dinner, I am on a business conference call and at the same time trying to quiet the kids. Such distractions may lead to a decrease in productivity, an increase in stress hormones, and a general feeling of malaise and unfulfillment. Who wants that? Not you, nor I. So what do we do?
- Stay in the present moment; when I pick the kids up, engage them in conversation and really listen to what they have to say. They are happier and so am I.
- Stay focused by eliminating distractions; focus and concentration are what great things are made of. When my husband focuses on one project at a time he accomplishes more.
- When you are not in the present moment, acknowledge the concern by writing it down, get it off your mind so you can pay attention to what you are doing now.
- Get enough rest and relaxation, not to mention the need for excellent nutrition.
- Plan your day, week, month; generally know what your goals are and work toward them on a consistent basis.
I know; the above suggestions are not productivity tools. There are many of those out there that will help. But there is no better productivity tool than your own brain. So first get control of who you are and what you desire and what it takes to get you there. You are awesome and anything in this life that you want you can have. Just go get it!
PS. Two of my favorite productivity gurus are David Allen and Stephen Covey. They both focus not necessarily on tools but on how you do what you do and why. Let me know who you read to improve your productivity by placing a comment in the box below.

Social Networking: A Time Saving Trick
As an entrepreneur we all know the importance of building our brand. To do so, we use social networking platforms like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn Instagram, etc. etc. Who has the time to keep up with all of this stuff? But we have to. We love our customers/clients and we have to stay engaged. So we share with our customers daily using these platforms. But what do you share? Where do you get the information from?
This week, I discovered a cool trick. I know it is not a tangible trick. However, in my life sitting in front of a computer for 7 or so hours daily, my tricks are usually something that saves me time online.
In this case, I discovered a website called Newsblur. With Newsblur, I found that I could automatically link my RSS feeds in one place. Yes, I know Google Reader does the same; but it is my understanding that Google Reader will soon be phased out. With Newsblur I can get all of the news on any topic that I find may be of interest to myself and my clients, customers, followers.
Needless to say, I am so happy to use this site. I no longer have to go all over the place to find something to share. I am on there for 5-10 minutes in the AM hours and I know without a doubt that I will add value to someone today just because of the time I spent.
Try something new and different today like Newsblur. Don't be afraid to change how you do things, to shake up your routine, to disrupt the status quo.
What have you found that saves you time and helps others. Share in the comment area below.

Amazing Kids!
We all have amazing kids! You ought to be excited when you read that sentence. They are little people who have their own thoughts and opinions and they teach us something new about ourselves on a daily basis. I am constantly telling my 10 year old that she is smarter than her mother. She just says things that startle me all the time.
But guess what? Our kids think that we are amazing as well.
We spend our time giving so much to others that at times we forget to take care of ourselves. But the kids are happiest when they see that we are grounded, centered, and happy as well. So do something today for your amazing kid. Do something for yourself. Be the best you that you can be and you will be amazed just how much you inspire your kids.

Entrepreneurship: Born or Bred?
Some of us know from very young that we don't want to work for anyone. For others of us, it takes time. Nonetheless, whether you are born knowing or life circumstances propels you in this direction, the road of entrepreneurship takes a special type of individual.
- Creative: Even if someone steals your idea; it doesn't matter; you have a million more where that one came from,
- Spontaneous: You can change directions at the drop of a hat,
- Risk-taker: Willingness to take risks without immediate rewards in sight,
Organization is important but it is not necessary. You can always hire or outsource for that.
Most important is the willingness to persevere. This is what makes or breaks the entrepreneur. Are you willing to try, and try and try again and again? Do you know that failure is just a simple stepping stone to success? Do you know that those who made it did so by sticking to to their guns no matter what?
If you answered yes to all or most of these questions, then you can be or you already are an entrepreneur. You have what it takes. You are what this great country is built on
So stand up and be counted. We are a special breed. Let us know if you are a born or a bred entrepreneur by commenting below.

5 Remember Whens for Mompreneurs
My kids are accustomed to telling remember when stories. You know the type. They'll say, "remember when mommy bought us all matching outfits for Christmas?" Or remember when "we all made pizza at home for the first time?" My favorite remember when stories always involve a family event where we are all together doing an outdoor activity. This summer they all went hiking and I know the events of that day are going to be part of their remember when arsenal. These stories bind us together and remind us of the importance of family time.
- Remember when you made the decision to go into business? The pure pleasure and passion you felt at that time can sustain you throughout the of trials of business ownership.
- Remember when you made your first dollar on a project? You realized that it is possible to make money from this confounded idea.
- Remember when you quit your job and realized that you have flex time to attend the kids field trips, etc.? Now you can earn money and still be available when the kids need you without the frustration of worrying what to do about work if you want to attend an in school activity with your child.
- Remember when the kids helped you stuff business envelopes or you looked at their happy faces while you were on the computer? You realized that although having it all is not an option that at least being present more in your kids life makes life more palatable.
- Remember when you took your first family vacation without having to submit a vacation authorization request to your employer and you could still manage your entrepreneurial affairs from afar? As a family you had fun and yes you were still making money.

Superwoman Syndrome: Establishing Balance in the Life of a Mompreneur
Whomever said you can have it all lied. The superwoman does not exist. We are only human. In order to survive and thrive we must establish balance in our lives. The best we can do is the best we can do.
We all make mistakes. Today I forgot my daughters' dental appointments. What was doubly bad about this situation is that I had just taken my younger daughter yesterday and I had the other two to take today. But this morning they complained that they did not want to miss school. I made a mental note to call the dentist's office to reschedule. But, I was driving at the time so this note was not written down. For me, if it is not on paper it doesn't happen.
I felt so bad about this because as a business owner I understand that other entrepreneurs depend on their appointments to make a living and this dentist could have arranged for others to be there. But what can I do now other than call them and apologize and maybe even send them a conciliatory bouquet of flowers......yes, that's how bad I feel about this. But I can't dwell on this particular circumstance or on other mishaps that occur. I have to learn from this experience and not internalize any negativity.
As a non-superwoman and a busy mompreneur the most important lesson I have learned is the need to establish balance. Here are the following ways that I strive to maintain balance.
- Say no before saying yes. If by any chance your no can turn into a yes, you will still be appreciated. But if you say yes then you do a mediocre job, it will inevitably reflect poorly on you. So, say no; but when your schedule permits help as much as you can.
- Create boundaries. Let your employees and or vendors know when you are available and if they call during "off the clock" hours then let the voice mail pick up and check to see if there is an emergency. Do the same for family and friends.
- Limit multitasking as much as humanly possible. I know, if mompreneurs don't multitask we won't get much done. But if you can focus on one task at a time you will improve your efficiency and effectiveness.
- Use a schedule. Plan your day and work your plan.
- Hire a Virtual Assistant who can handle both personal and professional matters. Trust me, as your business grows you will need the extra help. Both Elance and Odesk are good places to start but you can do your research to find which agencies work best with your specific demands.
In the end, balance is possible if we first understand what we can't do it all; we are not superwomen. As moms and entrepreneurs we should be there to uplift each other through genuine camaraderie.
Do you have any of the characteristics of the superwoman syndrome? If yes, what changes are you going to make in order to establish sustainable balance in your life?

A Day in my Life: A Mompreneur
As you would expect, my life is hectic, very hectic. I almost feel as though I have little or no down time. The old cliche, that time is your most precious commodity, is doubly significant for me. As an entrepreneur and a mother, I schedule everything. Yet, most times things occur that are uncontrollable. My typical day is as follows:
1. 04:30 AM, wake up, pray, and plan my day;
2. 05:00 - 06:00 AM, reconcile business accounts, check emails and do routine business tasks
3. 06:00 - 08:30 AM, wake kids, prepare breakfast and lunch, get kids ready for school, transport them to school, etc. etc., part of this time is spent doing morning devotion and at times morning tutoring sessions
4. 08:30 - 10:00 AM, exercise, glamorize, :)
5. 10:00 - 02:00 PM, work on projects for the business, meetings, etc.
6. 02:00 - 08:00 PM, mostly about the kids, after school activities, projects, homework, dinner, etc. etc., but also a continuation of business projects
7. 08:00 - 10:00 PM, evening chores and planning for the next day.
It all seems basic. But trust me there is a lot of sweat and tears that go into the day in the life of any mompreneur. When work is your business, it never ends. You can't turn it off. You are working when you are cooking dinner and an employee calls or when you are helping with homework and an idea for your business pops into your head and you have to stop to jot things down.
How do you handle it all? What is most important is like Stephen Covey suggests in his seminal work "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People," you have to take time to "sharpen the saw," which means, focus on yourself, literally, take care of yourself. Take time to exercise, eat well, sleep well, etc. etc. Only when you are at your optimum can you give to others.
I have to remind myself of this daily because to tell you the truth there are many days when I don't remember that I am a critical part of the equation. Yes, many days when I am not a part of my own schedule. When this happens I feel exhausted, frustrated and stressed.
So let's learn from each other and create time strictly dedicated to sharpening the saw. Put yourself in the equation. Take a day to pamper yourself and consistently keep this appointment with yourself. You will be a more happy parent and a more creative entrepreneur. You will be a beautiful, creative, thoughtful, business savvy, Mompreneur. Life is Good.

Parenting Help: Technology to Assist with Chores
Hey! I stumbled upon this article that introduced me to an amazing app that I found to be fantastic. As a mother and an entrepreneur we struggle to manage our time well. At the same time, we want to teach our growing brood the importance of ethical work. We set a good example and we expect them to follow suit.
Obviously this doesn't necessarily happen. We come off of our computers to meet the house in total chaos. Bread, mayo and peanut butter jars are open on the counter tops with crumbs and bread knives closely looking on, as if expecting the next attack of little hands. Clothes need to be washed and the stench in the laundry room is calling your name. Papers and crayons are all over the place. You'll be lucky if there isn't writing on the walls, literally.How do we teach our kids that they are capable and confident little human beings who can pick up after themselves without being threatened...ok too strong....let's say pleaded with or coerced? They see what you are doing on a daily basis. They, even at the tender age of 2 yrs, can be taught to help around the house.
The article I found is entitled "Things to Avoid When It Comes to Chores" and it can be found at http://blog.myjobchart.com/2013/09/things-to-avoid-when-it-comes-to-chores/. There don'ts are:
- Don't Delay
- Don't be Inconsistent
- Don't Require Perfection
- Don't Hold Back Praise
But What I am really excited about is their software/app. They provide an online chore chart.....Hallelujah! Yes baby... Kids are so technologically inclined these days that they are going to be excited about the possibilities of fulfilling their obligations using this app. Also, it teaches them the importance of saving, sharing, and spending. Finally, they are connected to Amazon so the kids can choose a reward and you will know when they have achieved their goal.
Okay, I know, "what is the app already?!" It is called My Job Chart. It can be found at http://www.myjobchart.com/ . I just love it and I know you will too.
Tell me what you think about it, if you use it.

Extraordinary Mom & Entrepreneur: Bethenny Frankel
en.wikipedia.org |
I don't know about you but I am excited for the premier of the Bethenny Show which airs today September 9, 2013 at 11 AM. I am busy setting my DVR and trying to figure out exactly which station she will be on. I have followed Bethenny from her days on the Real Housewives of New York City. I celebrated with her when she got married and had her daughter. I cried with her through her marital trials and tribulations. I respect her as a mom and an entrepreneur. After reading her book "A Place of Yes," I understood her quirky disposition.
She is a phenomenal mother and entrepreneur and there is so much we can learn from her:
- Say yes to your dreams even when others are saying no. They are not the boss of you. You ultimately control your destiny.
- Realize that you are not defined by anyone and at times you may have to run away to stay sane. Yes, there are those around who can kill your dreams if you allow them to.
- Dogged determination, hard work, and courage do pay off. Remember when Bethenny sold baked goods and when she sold scarves? Remember when she grabbed her child out of the hands of the minister?
- Stay focused. Whatever you decide you want to do, do it, even when others say no. What would have happened if Bethenny had allowed the rejection experienced when she started Skinny Girl Marguerite to prevail? She experienced a different outcome because she made the decision to stay focused on her brand.
- Have fun. Through it all, Bethenny always knew how to have fun and so can you. Hang out with your girlfriends, laugh at your own jokes, and dance whenever you feel like it. These special times will help you to make it through the stress of entrepreneurship.
Like Bethenny, you too can be courageous, determined, focused and spontaneously happy. You too can get whatever you want out of life. You are a mother and an entrepreneur and that alone says you win. Let's support Bethenny; so remember to watch her premier or set your DVR. Tell me what you think about the show or let me know which famous mompreneur encourages you.
