March 'The Month of Women' (1/6)
|
|
|
From women's day to Holi to spring. This month has beautifully transitioned from shivers to blossoms. We celebrated women of colours, not in the traditional sense but women who are breaking the mould and are the first in their chosen career paths, the colours of their career. Bold like black, bright like yellow and becoming like Michelle. Who all read her book cover to cover? #askingforafriend

March being women her-story month, 'Be The First' stands to break the distinction of 'male and female' and gives credit to all where it's due. Divya is the first lawyer and CEO of her family. Not a female lawyer but just a lawyer.

Hacks From Our Accountants (3/6)

We break down accounting for you (read our expertly edited article here):
- Mobile apps like Expensify and Walnut sync your SMS and photos and help track your payments.
- Want to see your employee hours in real-time? Try apps like Quickbooks and Zohobooks. A well-managed and structured payroll system ensures accurate payments to employees.
- Most businesses prefer the accrual method of accounting. It provides a better picture of the financial results of the company.
- Online invoicing tools (Invoicely, QBO, Zoho Books, etc.) allow you to generate on-the-go GST friendly invoices.
*We aren't promoting these apps, only friendly suggestions.
