You may be asking yourself if is really necessary to hire a bookkeeper. The simple answer is yes. I know when you are first starting out that it seems like another expense. I like to think of it as more of an investment in your business.
Not only will it take the day-to-day bookkeeping tasks off your to-do list, but you will also have peace of mind that your financials are accurate. By hiring a professional you know that somebody with your best interest is closely watching your financials while freeing up your time so you can do what you do best.
You say you already have an accountant, why do you need a bookkeeper? An accountant is more concerned with your business as a whole and usually only check in with you a couple of times a year. A bookkeeper learns about your business and sees the day-to-day business activities
A bookkeeper can translate how your financial statements affect your business and what the numbers actually mean. They can offer you deeper insight into your business’s financials and give you data that will assist you to make better-informed decisions.
A bookkeeper can also explain what is actually going on behind the scenes in your business. By becoming familiar with the inner workings of your business, they will be able to suggest processes and systems that help your business run smoother.
