Business owners and professionals are discovering that outsourcing your bookkeeping and accounting functions saves payroll, overhead cost, and it's a giant step forward in freeing up valuable time.  For many owners, just the effort of hiring, training, and managing a bookkeeper or accountant can take as much as five to eight hours a week, and if you're doing the books yourself, the numbers are even worse.  As a business owner, your time is best spent doing what you do best - working with customers and growing your business.

 

There is a misconception that an owner will lose some measure of control if they outsource the bookkeeping and accounting functions.  In a properly designed system, the bookkeeper/accountant only takes over the process of tracking transactions such as sales, accounts payable and balancing the books, and the business owner makes all the management decisions.

The owner always has the final word on who gets paid and when.

 

If you have great books or sloppy books, your customers never know.  A generally accepted rule in business is to focus resources on tasks that add value to the customer relationship.  Time spent on bookkeeping and accounting problems add little or no value to your customer relationship.  Yet, books that are inaccurate or do not reflect the true health of your business provide no clue to managing your business.  Being clueless at any level about where you are making money or who is a good customer is not being in control.  Cash flow is never a problem in business.  Poor cash flow is a symptom of other problems.  An outsourced bookkeeper can provide the answers you need, and you will end up with more control of your business.

 

Good bookkeepers and accountants with knowledge of accounting software are hard to hire, expensive to keep, and in some cases difficult to manage.  We hire the best, and your work is shared with a team so that if one person leaves you will not suffer an interruption of service.  Because of new technology advances, you now have the same advantages as Fortune 500 firms.  Thirty-Five percent of America's largest businesses outsource their bookkeeping and accounting functions.
