"We stopped dreading month-end close"
A 4-person bookkeeping firm was spending 6+ hours every month renaming invoices and receipts from 23 small business clients. Each client had different naming preferences. Junior staff made frequent mistakes.
After connecting their shared Google Drive, they set up per-client naming templates once. Now invoices are processed automatically as they arrive — vendor, date, amount, and invoice number extracted and encoded into each filename.
Month-end close went from a weekend of catch-up to a 2-hour review session. The senior partner now focuses on advisory work instead of file management.
Illustrative example based on typical bookkeeping workflows. Individual results vary based on client volume, document complexity, and existing processes.
