They gained back five days a month, invoicing now only taking a few hours, with the ability to see stock bottlenecks at a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>I would have to write it on paper, would give it to the person who does our accounts. She&#8217;d then type out each individual invoice separately, and then we&#8217;d have to go down to the post office and post them. So, it&#8217;s very long-winded.<\/p><cite>Joe Daniels, Director, BLC Forklifts<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-does-automation-help\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does automation help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using Sage meant that the BLC team could re-focus on customer relationships, making sure the personal touch was carried through at every step, and helping the business to grow through word of mouth recommendations plus in-person care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Terry remains traditional in his approach to customers, saying: \u201cI&#8217;ll pop round and see you. And that&#8217;s the best thing to do. And then you meet someone, you set up a relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe recognises the impact of tech making life easier, using Sage Copilot to send customer payment reminders without the nagging: \u201cNow it&#8217;s just like a reminder, and they know when it was due or that it&#8217;s overdue, and they can just do it without any sort of negative connotations behind it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visibility into the business finances has also improved, as the team can access the financials from anywhere, as Joe remarks: \u201cEverything&#8217;s updated in the system, live. It&#8217;s easier.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The level of automation means Joe saves time managing the month-end: \u201cI can just do it straight away, and everything&#8217;s done straight there from one desk rather than two.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>I just click one button, and it does a whole statement run for all my customers and emails them all.<\/p><cite>Joe Daniels<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-does-a-forecasting-solution-help-with-proactive-planning\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does a forecasting solution help with proactive planning?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since using Sage, the team can now manage stock more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe explains: \u201cIt predicts how your cash flow is going to come in [&#8230;] It\u2019s pretty good at forecasting where you&#8217;re going to be, at least in a month or a quarter&#8217;s time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>With Sage, it tells you how much money you&#8217;re going to have going out, and how much money you&#8217;ve expected to come in, or you do have in. You can balance and see exactly where that line is.<\/p><cite>Joe Daniels<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-does-a-brand-build-a-solid-reputation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does a brand build a solid reputation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to supporting their local community, Joe explains: \u201cWe do have to make tough financial decisions, knowing, not just disposable income, but how much money we&#8217;ve got to play with.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Financial visibility is essential as it supports Joe\u2019s ability to decide what charitable giving can be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a local business, the team at BLC often find themselves working with other firms in the same complex, and they like to help the children of the wider business community with sports team shirt sponsorships, as they know that every little helps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Joe remarks, it\u2019s more about helping to keep the community supported: \u201cIf people needed sponsoring for kits or award ceremonies, we just stepped up and went in there. It&#8217;s been more about helping people out and sort of building a nice little family of people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has only strengthened BLC\u2019s reputation, and it&#8217;s made possible by a clear view of its financials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>Everything goes full circle, and you\u2019re in the community and you&#8217;re trusted.<\/p><cite>Joe Daniels<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-final-thoughts\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When dad Terry, now 80, retires, Joe hopes to keep the business&#8217;s reputation as solid as on day one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using Sage Business Cloud Accounting has given the team at BLC freedom from manual admin, and the time and financial confidence to set up deep roots in the community, make agile financial decisions, and know they can expand thanks to word-of-mouth recommendations from local businesses for generations to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>[In] the next five years, I&#8217;m just hoping that we carry on as we are, for being reliable and building up trust, and letting customers find us, and know that they can trust us.<\/p><cite>Joe Daniels<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more inspirational stories, visit our EFL <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sage.com\/en-gb\/blog\/heroes-of-the-efl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interactive map<\/a> to reveal more businesses behind the badge.<\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-sage-faq\">\n\t\n<h2 id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"faq-items\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-sage-faq-item\" id=\"faq-item-4801450f\">\n\t<div class=\"faq-item-question\">\n\t\t\n<h3 id=\"h-how-can-i-save-time-and-automate-financial-admin\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I save time and automate financial admin?<\/h3>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"faq-item-answer\">\n\t\t\t\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can save time, trust your data, and grow financial confidence with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sage.com\/en-gb\/sage-business-cloud\/sage-accounting\/#pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sage Business Cloud Accounting<\/a> plans for any size business that scale with you.
