It’s tax time again and you find yourself sifting through stacks of old papers looking for your receipts and invoices that somehow got lost or thrown away amongst the mess of documents you’ve been attempting to organize all year.  Filing taxes each year can seem like an overwhelming and daunting task, but these two small business owners figured out a way to streamline the process.  Read on to hear their stories

“It’s tax time again and here I am with a large pile of receipts, and not much organization, and here comes ScanSnap to the rescue.  It’s a simple process of dropping the receipts into the ScanSnap and pushing a button.  That’s what I really like about it – the ease of loading the receipts, scanning on both sides and the ease of finding the receipt at a later time. I make it a practice to scan all receipts and invoices, and categorize them in various business expense accounts.  If I need a certain item, I just use the search box with key words and the item I am looking for is listed right on the screen and I can print as needed.  All the receipts and other important paperwork can be scanned and organized and are available at my fingertips.  What a revelation!!  I can now find receipts and other documents almost instantly and with little effort.  Where have you been all my life?” – E. Andrew Huska, North Carolina

“I find it hard to store documents in folders. I live my life and collect receipts, files at work, restaurant receipts, personal papers, bills, in fact – my life, all over the place.  At Tax time I go nuts. My transactions are all over the place, in boxes, large envelopes, in drawers, in my head, everywhere but where they should be, in marked folders in a filing cabinet.  In comes the ScanSnap 1500M and my life has changed from chaos to order. In no time I have scanned all my documents, bills, payments, receipts, important documents, etc. to my passport thumb drive with 80GB of space and to be absolutely sure, I have backed them up on the cloud.  Now I can answer any question about my life in seconds. With the Find in Finder, documents are now at my finger tips.” – Earl Cenac, St. Lucia
