Bookkeeping: The Foundation of Small Business Success

Bookkeeping is as important as sales to the success of any business. If you want to grow your small business, it is imperative that you keep and maintain an accurate set of financial records. Does your small business maintain accurate and timely records?

Small businesses that prosper continually monitor their financial numbers. They create an accounting system that captures all sales, expenses, assets and obligations. Their accounting systems generate financial reports that are used on a regular basis to manage operations and forecast results. This information allows owners and managers of small businesses to react to market conditions and trends so they can position their company for continual growth.

Bookkeeping is the foundation of that properly constructed accounting system. It allows the small business owner and manager to:

  • Plan ahead (i.e., budget)
  • Meet deadlines and make timely payments of loans, bills and taxes
  • Manage cash flows
  • Evaluate business performance
  • Forecast future projects
  • Determine employment needs
  • Compare financial results

You simply cannot manage a business effectively without information. Bookkeeping gives you the financial information to make sound financial decisions. Current, accurate financial information is crucial to the success of your small business.
