When Brainworks released the first Windows based newspaper billing software over a decade ago, a new standard was set for software, which was user friendly, flexible, and powerful. Since that time, Brainworks has continued to raise those standards every year. Customer Service - Be a Hero to Your Advertisers Clear and concise billing statements and invoices are custom made. Preview payments received. Your business office will be efficient, in control, and accountable to advertisers and to management. Speed Through your Daily Operations Paper checking, cash receipts, adjustments, collections, agency, coop, contracts, credit, invoicing and more all become easy to manage with Brainworks smart, powerful, Windows TM based software. Strong Accounting - Flexible Reporting Print an aging or cash report from last month or last year. Generate a statement from two months ago.
