Shredding the Paper Habit with Brooks Duncan of DocumentSnap – ATSR009

September 12, 2014

Are those stacks of paper and cabinets of carbon stressing you out?

If so, we brought a special guest onto the show to help you figure out what version of paperless will work for you. It's none other than Brooks Duncan – SimpleREV workshop leader and paperless expert – of DocumentSnap.com.

DocumentSnap is where Brooks writes about tools, workflows, and taking action to shred our paper habits. He's also a Certified Management Accountant, a former computer programmer, and lives with his wife and two kiddos in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia.

We poked and probed until Brooks delivered the goods on:

* Whether you can truly go totally paperless (and if you'd actually want to).
* The common – and beatable – challenges people face when going paperless.
* His top tips on where to start your paperless journey.
* Why his Paperless Document Organization Guide is so useful ... even before you scan your first document.

Do you struggle with going paperless? Tell us about your issues or share a comment/question in the comments section below. You can also share your insight with a note on iTunes or the SimpleREV Facebook page.
