Bookkeeping Advice

Once you were able to do all the invoicing and bank reconciliations for your business at the end of every month….then your business grew.

Bookkeeping is often one of those administration tasks that business owners take upon themselves in an effort to keep costs down however little thought is given to whether this is the best use of the owner’s valuable time, not to mention their stress levels!

If you had four hours free per month what would you be doing instead?

• Spend time with your family
• Go to the beach
• Watch a movie
• Work on your business

A professional bookkeeper may be able to keep your accounts up to date in as little as two - four hours per month, depending on the size and complexity of your business, achieving the same result in perhaps a third of the time. Smaller businesses may benefit from online accounting programs such as Xero which can automate much of the time-consuming work you may currently be doing.

How valuable is your time?  Perhaps you could be increasing sales, training new employees or visiting valuable clients instead of banging your head against the computer screen?Utilising a bookkeeper may even save your marriage!
