Paperless…

Jody — Sat, 27 Nov 2010 13:18:34 +0000

With all these things related eco-friendly, people are really getting conscious about helping the environment. It is actually a good sign isn’t? And have you heard about document management software? It’s practically going paperless. It is about sharing documents to clients, colleagues electronically without a need to send a fax or even print the materials. But the good thing is that you can still restrict access to some or more of the files. There would be special permissions that can be given to certain employees or suppliers and clients. It is indeed a good way to help the environment. I hope more companies would consider that. I am actually. It would be great to share files to my clients and suppliers.

Work…

Jody — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 02:16:43 +0000

has been tremendous since Monday. I thought it is already the lean season but seems like the peak month is just starting. I am totally overload. But I can’t complain enough (except for some wrinkles coming out in the sides of my eyes because of stress, thanks to prototype 37c anyway ) since these are blessings from above. It is always better to be busy rather than do nothing at all. I hope I could recover soon from some sleepless nights because of too much paper work. Wishing next week is better already.

Now on South Beach Diet too…

Jody — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 01:44:51 +0000

I, too is on South Beach Diet already (improvised!) The husband finished his 14-days straight Phase 1. And he has lost about 14lbs for that span of time. We stopped ordering for the meantime and I am taking my own measures to prepare his food. I have patterned it still to the diet and is strictly following only the food allowed. Since I am now making the effort to prepare the food he would bring with him daily, I realized I should also try it myself so I’m on 3rd day already without Carbo, Bad Fats and Sweets. I don’t actually feel hungry at all since I made sure I am getting a good portioning for all my meals. No updates yet as to how many pounds I lost already but I will post it here soon. For the meantime, I need to make a research about Waste Management Software, since we need it for the new business we are venturing. We need something that has a low monthly fee and can be hosted online. Our new business would need it since we need all scheduling and tracking functionality of our invetories.

Sending out Thank You Cards…

Wedding Thank You Cards

I always remind my clients, my brides in particular not to forget to send out Thank You Cards to their wedding guests. That is a particular etiquette that most of the brides are neglecting after they are done with their preparations. In fact, I do recommend that they should order their cards the same time that they are ordering their invitations because that can save them eitheir in shipping or they can even get some free thank you cards.

I have recommended the number of unique and exclusive designs available only at CardsPersonalized to most of my clients. I have trust and tested their products and services already. I actually ordered baby thank you cards and business thank you cards from them as well! What I like about them is that if a customer does not find exactly what they are looking for in their website, http://www.cardspersonalized.com/, they will create a special design for the client’s preference. Do check them out if you need to send any kind of thank you cards!
