Proud to Be Irish: Be Your Clients’ Lucky Charm

With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, we thought it would be the perfect time for us to reflect on our roots, how much we’ve grown, and how we create best-in-class software solutions catering specifically for Irish law.

Bright was created in 2021 when Thesaurus Software Ltd based in Co. Meath and Relate Software Ltd founded in Co. Dublin, decided to join forces. We’ve grown from our Irish roots, and since then, many other products have joined the Bright family.

What makes us Bright is that we aren’t just one product, but a combination of products with the aim to make your life easier. How do we do this? By providing you with innovative solutions to streamline your business.

By combining the strengths of each of our products, we are fast becoming the go-to software providers for Irish accountants. Here’s three good as gold tips on how to save both you and your clients money.

Get your books organised

One of the most important parts of accounting is keeping good records. The easiest and most secure way of doing this is to use quality bookkeeping software. Bookkeeping software helps you manage clients, generate financial reports and reconcile bank accounts – all of which helps your business grow swiftly and successfully.

If you haven’t got some form of bookkeeping software by now, you’re at a major competitive disadvantage. BrightBooks, our Irish bookkeeping solution, is the perfect bookkeeping software to keep your financial affairs on track. It streamlines your bookkeeping process by storing receipts, invoices and income statements.

Power-up your payroll

Using good payroll software not only helps you stay in line with tax and compliance laws, but it also eliminates a lot of manual work.

Our cloud payroll software, BrightPay, is one of the top payroll platforms used in Ireland. Save time and money with payroll journal integrations, direct payments, multi-user access, self-service portals for employees, and much more.

Automate your admin

Practice management software is another tool to save you a lot of money (and headaches). With it, you can streamline your onboarding, improve your team’s efficiency, and cut down on monotonous admin.

Your reputation depends a lot on your accuracy. Good thing our practice management solution, BrightManager, can cut down on these errors, keeping you more organised and saving a bunch of time. In saying that, with St. Patrick’s Day coming up, you’re going to want to have as much time available as possible to enjoy the festivities. You want quality software you can depend on that keeps you and your team working as efficiently as possible.

BrightManager’s automated task management lets you see all your firm’s tasks at a glance. It shows you which tasks are the most important, which ones are due soon, and who’s assigned to them. You can create workflows in each task too, which breaks down your tasks into smaller subtasks. These subtasks can be assigned to team members. When someone on the team finishes a task, the person who’s working on the next task gets notified to take the lead.

Another amazing way BrightManager can help you save time is by chasing up your clients for you. Only received some records you asked for? No worries we’ll help you sort out those last-minute leprechauns. Just let the system know what you’re missing, and we’ll chase them up again.

Implementing these three simple tips can turn you into a lucky charm for your clients this Paddy’s Day.

Many of our products listed above are proudly Irish born and bred. After all, St Patrick’s Day is really about celebrating all things Irish. Following this blog, we hope to have given you a good sense of our continued gratitude and appreciation to our fellow Irish customers.
