#WoVOChat Today: Bookkeeping
You wanna get paid doncha? Sure you do...and because it's absolutely necessary, chances are you've devised SOME workable method for invoicing your clients for the work you've done, and keeping a record of your payments. Lemme ask you, though. Is your method time-consuming? So much so that you...

Go With What You Know
Do the time, and you form a trust. It's why I continue to buy Chevys, Microsoft, Kraft Mayonnaise, and National Geographic.Sure, I'm aware that Ford, Apple, Best Foods, and the Smithsonian make decent competing products, but not decent enough to make me switch.Part of it is tradition, part of it...
Now, More Than Ever…We Need WoVO
Let me tell you what it's like to sit where I sit in the WoVO organization. It's awesome.If I'm lucky, I'll be voted in as the ACTUAL president of the organization... not just the interim president (members of the board will entertain my nomination today at the annual members meeting online).The...
