Most small business owners wear many hats and have a can do everything attitude – something that serves them well as they grow their business and helps keep costs down in the start-up phase. It’s difficult to justify delegating certain aspects of a growing business to someone else and even more so when it comes to hiring financial help like a bookkeeper.

Most business owners are competent at basic accounting but as a business grows, the accounting and tax planning become more complicated and takes up more time, time from working on growing your business and leaves most business owners worrying about whether they are doing it correctly.

A great bookkeeper does the day to day hands on tasks: making sure the bills are paid, submitting invoicing and following up on them – tracks company expenses and assets and ensure they are properly recorded and ensure the company is ready for tax time along with any other reporting.
Recent innovations by secure remote access providers mean that bookkeeping has never been more accessible or practical for companies.

It’s very common for bookkeepers to have more work in cleaning up the records when starting to work with a new client than if they had of been involved with the business from the beginning. It is important to have the proper systems and processes in place as early on as possible and this allows clients to make better and more educated decisions. The benefits to your business are worth the costs of the service.
