Sober livings are like most small businesses – technology makes their lives much simpler, yet there is always a learning curve when they first adopt a new software or method of doing things.
Below is a list of software sober livings should use to make their operations smooth and their staff’s jobs easier.
**If you have a software to add, please feel free to email me at info@onestepsoftware.com and I will be happy to add it.**
Quickbooks
Quickbooks is a great way for owners to keep track of the financials of their business and send invoices to clients. Many sober livings only accept cash or cashier’s checks so it is important to keep track of everything in one place.
Google Drive or Dropbox
Residents sign releases and other documents when they move in. There are also prescriptions, discharge plans from treatment centers and other documents that need to be kept in a safe place. Many sober livings either use Dropbox or Google Drive, and create a folder for every resident.
One Step is a management software for staff and operators to communicate and keep track of all resident schedules and information. Communication is so important for sober livings; whether they are communicating internally between staff members, calling treatment centers or calling parents, it is important to keep everything in one place, where it is easily accessible when you need. Soon, One Step will also include a CRM and integrate with Mailchimp and Quickbooks.
Mailchimp
Mailchimp is an ESP (email service provider) that will allow you to send emails to past residents for purposes of staying in contact with them, telling them about events coming up and sharing news about the sober living.
