🎥 Light Blue’s Home Screen: an overview [webinar]

Light Blue brings all of the information that you need to run your business together into one place. As you’re managing your business, both you and your clients are entering helpful information into Light Blue. For example, when a new enquiry fills out your website contact form then you import that into Light Blue as a new enquiry, or when you raise an invoice and mark it is paid, all of that information is stored in Light Blue and linked together behind the scenes. You’re not having to deal with spreadsheets, paper diaries, or anything else, it’s all together in one convenient system.

Light Blue’s Home Screen gives you an overview of the information that’s most important to you. Light Blue’s strong customisation options allow you to set it up to show what’s most helpful for you and your business. You can even set up more than one Home Screen layout, so you can have different ways of looking at your business for each of the hats that you have to wear as a business owner.
