Press Release Body: With losses as a result of the postal strike so far estimated to
be around £260 million, businesses are keen to know how they can beat the strike and
keep the cash coming in, despite the interruptions to the mail service. Spindle
Professional, created by Draycir, is an affordable and easy-to-use software product
that generates instant electronic invoicing and statements, eliminating the need to
physically mail them out, thereby beating the postal strike.

BACS payment of invoices by customers, in receipt of electronic invoices, enables a
business to bypass the postal system entirely. It is therefore possible for
businesses to function as normal from a financial and cash flow point of view, by
using Spindle Professional in conjunction with electronic banking (which is now
available to even the smallest of businesses).

Even when the postal strike ends, it will cause massive backlogs of post, which it
is estimated could take weeks to sort out. Delayed invoices will impact on payment
and therefore cash flow; but Draycir has the answer to help businesses beat the
postal strike.

Spindle Professional has received validation from HM Revenue & Customs as an
accredited form of electronic VAT invoicing. The approval of HM Revenue & Customs
means many thousands of businesses can now stop posting out unnecessary VAT invoices
and simply e-mail or fax them using Spindle Professional instead.

One company that is already reaping the benefits of using Spindle Professional is
Draycir business partner, Sicon. "We use the email that the software generates, so
we haven't faced any adverse financial consequences due to the postal strike," says
Jane Youngman of Sicon. "We also save on the enormous cost of paper and postage, so
all in all we are delighted with the results of using Spindle Professional. A lot of
our clients use Spindle Professional for the same reasons."

Robert Ball, managing director of Draycir, said: "Spindle Professional has
superseded the need to post out VAT invoices, meaning that finance departments can
now protect themselves from the high cost and unreliability of the postal system."
