Painting job profitability should not depend on shoebox receipts.
Paint stores, equipment vendors, and subcontractors invoice to your phone and inbox while you are on ladders and job sites. PDFs and portal downloads pile up untagged by project.
Tax season and accountant handoffs turn into detective work. You under-recover job costs when material invoices are missing or filed under the wrong address.
