The week's money · 2 min read

A receipt goes in the envelope the same day

Open the book and deal with a receipt you can still read. A receipt goes in the envelope the same day. That is the whole agenda.

Sequence

A one-room shop can finish this: put it in the week's envelope before you leave the counter. Leave software shopping out of it.

The habit to drop

Watch for a receipt in a coat pocket. That is how a small firm starts telling two stories about the same week.

Close the note when the envelope has the receipt and the coat does not. Put the page where Monday-you will see it without a search.

This sits under "The week's money". No forecast is attached, and no result is promised.

A desk note. It does not predict revenue, and it is not tax, legal, or accounting advice.
