BlissNeat vs Doing Nothing: The Real Cost Comparison

The Hidden Cost of Doing Nothing

The cost of not using expense management software is $10,900 per year for a 5-person team, assuming 4 hours of manager time per week is spent on receipt approvals. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. But most managers don't realize they're already losing money every week they wait to implement a solution. For a 10-person team, this number jumps to $21,800 per year. And for a 20-person team, it's a staggering $43,600 per year.

But here's the thing: most managers think they're saving money by not paying for expense management software. And that's a huge mistake. The truth is, the cost of not using expense management software far outweighs the cost of implementing a solution like BlissNeat. In fact, doing nothing is the most expensive option of all. With BlissNeat, managers can save 4+ hours per week, which translates to $10,900 per year for a 5-person team.

The problem is, most managers are stuck in a cycle of manual receipt approvals, lost receipts, and tedious expense reporting. And it's not just the time spent on these tasks that's the problem - it's also the opportunity cost of not having real-time visibility into team spend. Without instant insights, managers are flying blind, making decisions based on outdated or incomplete data. But with BlissNeat, managers can get instant insights and real-time team spend visibility, making it easier to make informed decisions.

And let's not forget the non-financial costs of not using expense management software. Morale suffers when employees have to deal with lost receipts and delayed reimbursements. Compliance risk increases when expenses aren't properly tracked and approved. And manager stress levels skyrocket when they're stuck dealing with paperwork and administrative tasks instead of focusing on high-leverage activities. Contrary to popular belief, expense management software is not just a nicety, but a necessity for any team with more than 5 people.

So what's the real cost of doing nothing? In the next section, we'll break down the year 1 cost of not using expense management software, and compare it to the year 1 cost of using BlissNeat. Check out our pricing page to see how BlissNeat can help you save time and money. We'll also explore the break-even point, and show you how BlissNeat can pay for itself in under 2 months.

The Real Cost of Doing Nothing

And. let's get straight to the point. The cost of not using expense management software is staggering. But. most managers don't realize they're already losing money every week. For a 10-person team, with each manager spending just 1 hour per week on receipt approvals, that's 40 hours per month. At $25 per hour, that's $1,000 per month, or $12,000 per year. But. that's just the tip of the iceberg.

A 5-person team, with each manager spending 4 hours per week on receipt approvals, will lose $10,900 per year. And. that's not even considering the indirect costs, like decreased morale and increased compliance risk. But. here's the thing: you're already paying for an expense management system, whether you like it or not. The question is, are you going to pay for a system that saves you time and money, or are you going to pay for the inefficiencies of doing nothing?

Year 1 Costs: Doing Nothing vs BlissNeat

For a 10-person team, the cost of doing nothing is $12,000 per year. But. the cost of using BlissNeat is just $2,400 per year, based on our pricing tier. That's a savings of $9,600 per year. And. that's not even considering the break-even point, which is usually under 2 months.

In fact, it's often more expensive in the long run, due to the indirect costs and inefficiencies.
