When it takes you nearly two entire days to update your publishing financial data you can probably say several things:
1. Three months is too long between updates
2. You have a ridiculously complex and detailed system
3. Amazon has changed how they do some things since the last time.
4. It’s time to simplify, stupid
On the plus side, at least that’s done and I’m that much closer to being back into the standard flow–which is really what the last two weeks have been about. The house is coming together, slowly but surely. We’ll be getting a new couch set here tomorrow, so the house may actually look almost like a house most everywhere we look at that point.
Lisa’s working full-time, I’m ramping back up to my normal writing cycle (discounting the last two days, anyway.
So, yeah. It’s coming together.
You are using Trackerbox, right? For pulling all your reports together?
Have you tried TrackerBox software, Ron? 🙂
I am doing mine today (minus September’s Amazon report which is still not in) and it takes me about half an hour to download the reports from all vendors and then import into the program with a click:

I heartily recommend it! A great time saver! 🙂
