FreshBooks is one of those applications that a freelancer, or practically anyone who works for any type of client will find extremely useful. It brings together all the core information needed, such as client information, expenses, invoices sent and paid, staff information, billing, and timing information. It even has a built in timer which you can use when billing clients hourly.

YouSendIt

When we’re done with client work, we need to send them the files that they’ve paid for, but sometimes this can be a little tricky as the file sizes may be too large to attach to an email efficiently enough. This is where YouSendIt comes in. YouSendIt allows you to send much larger files over email (up to 100MB on the free version) quickly and safely. You can even add password protection, and track your file delivery.
