Organizing Ideas and Tips


October, 2016

Videos and Film - Preserve Them NOW!

How many of us have old VHS tapes or tapes from our old video cameras.  These hold precious memories, and yet we most likely do not have the technology in our homes to view these great moments from our lives.
 
And what about your old films?  Maybe the old Super 8 or 8mm films from your childhood?
 
Not only can we not view any of these in their current format, but they are slowly degrading over time, and we want to protect them before they are gone.
 
Today I want you to find that box of tapes or films and take an inventory of what you have.   Even old audio tapes can be saved!
 
There are many companies that will transfer these to a digital format for you.  Find a reputable one that does a high quality transfer.   What I like to look for is a company that does not send my tapes overseas, and ideally even a local business who will treat each tape or film with great care.  I want a high quality transfer, with a company who will stand by their work.
 
I prefer to get the transfers put directly onto an external hard drive.  These videos can take up a lot of space, and once they are on a hard drive you have much more flexibility in what you do next.  You can view them on your computer, or burn them to DVDs to share with family and friends.
 
And don’t forget to back up that hard drive.  You can make a copy of it, or add it to your cloud backup.  But please don’t let it be your only copy of these wonderful memories.
 
Whatever your choice, do it now.  Protect these memories from time, and share them today!
 
Small Business Bookkeeping!

Cari's Product Favorites

QuickBooks Online

For all you small business owners out there, I want to recommend QuickBooks Online.  As you know, I do a lot of small business bookkeeping for my DMM and Financial Organizing clients.  I have used several different bookkeeping systems, and I find that my favorite is QuickBooks Online. 

It is the easiest to use, and does everything that a small business could want.  And because it is web-based, it makes it very easy to share with your Bookkeeper or CPA.  Feel free to ask me any questions, or check it out with a free trial.
