Mark Townshend knew he needed to measure his business' carbon footprint, but finding the right solution had become a very frustrating task. Searching for options, trying them out, comparing pros and cons, etc... He was wasting his time, as the options were not designed for an SME, but for big corporations instead.
"We explored other options before finding CarbonInvoice, but none were as efficient."
His team spent weeks researching different carbon accounting options and sustainability reporting softwares. Most solutions required extensive setup, manual data entry, or ongoing administrative work that would pull his team away from core business activities. With the business booming, Mark needed something that worked efficiently without creating new headaches.
The CarbonInvoice App connected directly to their existing Xero accounting software and immediately began calculating their carbon footprint automatically.
"CarbonInvoice was incredibly quick to set up through Xero, and within minutes we had a clear understanding of our carbon footprint."
Within minutes of connecting CarbonInvoice to their accounting system, Mark had clear understanding of their business' environmental impact. No lengthy implementation process, no disruption to their existing workflows, no need to train team members on new systems. The Xero integration meant their carbon measurement started working immediately using data they were already capturing for their regular business operations.
The Xero integration eliminated the friction points that make measuring a business' carbon footprint feel like a burden rather than a business advantage. The automated calculation eliminated guesswork or manual carbon accounting methods.
Mark's experience illustrates a common challenge for SMEs - finding carbon accounting software that actually works for real businesses rather than just looking good in demonstrations. The difference between CarbonInvoice and other platforms was immediate efficiency, as it was designed for busy SMEs.
Mark's experience shows how the right choice can transform environmental compliance from a challenging task into a simple, ongoing business capability that works automatically in the background. It is for business owners who have been frustrated by complicated carbon accounting options.
"The process is simple, efficient, and perfect for busy businesses like ours."
The hands-off approach meant they could demonstrate carbon action without diverting time and resources from business related activities. Their carbon measurement happened automatically while they continued serving their clients effectively.
