How can I organize my show paperwork more efficiently?

[PChefPEI]

I am trying to organize all of my show order forms. I usually print all of the orders and staple together and put in a "pile"....

Does anyone out there NOT print any of it and just rely on the electronic copies? A part of me is a little nervous of that, in case something happens to my computer or PP. I would love to cut down on the amount of paper!

Any ideas or tips?

Do you keep the handwritten copies of the order forms from the show as well? That's a lot of paper. I've saved my order forms so far, but plan on shredding the older ones soon. All of the info and contacts are in P3. I backup P3 to multiple locations, so I really don't worry about losing the electronic copy.

If I have the handwritten copy, I don't print off another copy from PP. But, it's still a lot of paper and I don't know where to put it all.

I didn't start using PP from the start, so I will definitely keep the shows that aren't in there.
