Most small business owners understand the importance of good bookkeeping practices, but they often become pulled in so many directions that the bookkeeping takes a back seat. The result of the complacency will be missed opportunities to minimize tax liabilities, missed deadlines that result in penalties and interest charges, lack of insight into the health of the business, constraints to cashflow, and a business that fails to truly launch. 

We start new business ventures to offer our communities new opportunities, better services, or access to products that make their lives better. Businesses are established to make a profit and improve the lives of business owners and employees.

At Freestone Associates, we are reliable bookkeepers committed to rendering accurate services to our clients. Our founder Kim Freestone has over thirty years of accounting experience which ensures we minimize taxes and add value. We are also consistent and responsive in our approach, enabling us to be proactive and take on unexpected challenges for our clients.

Great bookkeeping applies systematic routines and accounting principles to ensure the financial data of the business is valid. Keeping the books in great shape monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually takes time and money, and sometimes it is worth it and sometimes it is not worth it until the fiscal year-end. How do you know how often you should have the bookkeeping done?  

As an entrepreneur, it can be challenging to juggle all areas of the business. When so much of your time is taken up with operations, marketing, and customer service, it is the accounting that tends to suffer. Procrastination on your accounting requirements will have a detrimental effect on the success of your business. To avoid this scenario, hire a great bookkeeper who will save you time, improve cashflow, avoid expensive pitfalls and provide peace of mind.

The year 2021 is marked as the year of great resignation and the emergence of various variants of COVID-19 in some parts of the world. In the global market, these changes have impacted many small businesses. While some of them have been able to pivot sales streams to online successfully, others suffered from the lack of human capital.

In a bid to save money and time, some small business owners manage their finances by doing the bookkeeping themselves instead of handing these critical responsibilities to a professional. The result tends to validate the saying ‘penny wise, pound foolish’.
