The Finmo jobs you can stop doing yourself

You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.

Invoice the job on the way out

Today

You finish a job, head to the next one and promise yourself the invoice will go out tonight. Often it does not.

With Flann

“Invoice Hassan for the kitchen fit, materials plus labour, usual terms.”

Within Finmo, Flann finds Hassan, builds the invoice from the lines you described and applies your standard payment terms. It stays a draft for now.

What you stop doing: Unbilled work stops living in your head.

Refunds handled properly

Today

When a customer asks for money back, you search Finmo for the original payment, check what was bought and work out how much is due. Then you still have to reply.

With Flann

“Refund the deposit Omar paid last week, he cancelled in time.”

Locating Omar’s payment in Finmo, Flann confirms the amount and prepares the refund against the original charge. It also drafts a short message telling Omar when to expect the money.

What you stop doing: Refunds stop turning into a small investigation.
