Small Business Bookkeeping at Friendly Cincinnati Prices: Your Secret Weapon
To win in business, you need to know where you stand financially at all times.
Most people who start businesses have a passion for what they are doing, but they often do not have the skills or interest needed to keep careful, timely financial records.
Unfortunately, without diligent bookkeeping, transactions can go unrecorded, mistakes can be made and crucial details can be lost. Small problems can become crises. Your business can literally succeed or fail, depending on the abilities of your bookkeeper!
Why use an outside bookkeeping service and what to expect from them
Professional bookkeeping companies like BookWerksTM employ skilled bookkeepers who are often well-versed in accounting principles, tax regulations and industry standards. We can usually assign a bookkeeper who has extensive experience in your industry. This can help ensure that your financial records are compliant with relevant laws.
By outsourcing mundane–but so important–bookkeeping tasks, you can free up valuable time to focus on other areas of your business, such as growth, sales and customer service.
If you choose to outsource your small business financial recordkeeping to a service like BookWerksTM, your bookkeeper should:
- Record every sale, purchase, payment and receipt.
- They should keep this information in ledgers using standard accounting practices.
- You should get weekly or monthly reports, such as Income Statements/Profit and Loss Statements and Balance Sheets, to show how things are going.
Beyond recording transactions
Competent bookkeepers can help you make sense of your numbers. They may also be able to suggest tools to streamline your workflow. They can clean up your records and will check frequently for mistakes.
In short, a good bookkeeper is a critical business partner.
Bookkeepers handle day-to-day recordkeeping, making sure your accounts are maintained at a high standard of detail and accuracy. They can advise you on issues such as a cash flow or equipment purchases.
If you use cloud-based accounting software (as we do), all this can be done securely from anywhere, anytime.
