All businesses need bookkeeping. It’s part of doing business and it’s part of being a business owner.
First you have to decide if you are going to DIY it or hire someone.
But most business owners don’t have an accounting background and don’t know much about bookkeeping (and don’t really have the time to do it right). And if they decide to hire it out, they often don’t know what to look for to find a good bookkeeper (it’s an unregulated field and anyone can hang out a shingle).
This often leads to mistakes and those mistakes can lead to:
- frustration and overwhelm
- missed tax deductions
- ignoring business finances
- bad business decisions from a lack of good data
- underearning
- costly bills down the road for accounting cleanup
When clients come to me with profit and cash flow issues, I often see a direct link with the quality of their bookkeeping. After all, you can't manage profit and cash flow effectively if you don't have books you can trust and don’t know where your money is going.
In this week's episode of Purposeful Profit, I'm sharing the 5 bookkeeping mistakes I most often see businesses owners make, so you can avoid them.
You'll learn
- Questions you should be asking when you hire a bookkeeper
- What you’re really paying for when you hire a bookkeeper (and it’s not their time)
- Reasons your books may not be accurate
