Before I start discussing e-billing, let me tell you a story to illustrate how important it is.

I remember walking through a large bank’s offices in the late 1990’s. As we walked back to the conference room to give our sales pitch on why they needed a e-billing system we had to squeeze past boxes four feet high.

I asked “What’s in the boxes?” They said legal bills.

During the sales pitch I asked several questions:

How much do you spend in legal bills? Answer: we don’t know.
How many law firm vendors do you have? Answer: we don’t know.
Home many legal bills do you get a year? Answer: we don’t know.

I knew then that the software we had designed was going to sell itself. In the next series of posts I will be explaining why e-billing is so important and why we at Onit have spent so much time designing a system that works for you, no matter how big or how small your company may be.
