What’s Your Biggest Fear in Your Business Accounting?
For many it might be that your entire system is lost. For others it might be that their accounting makes no sense when the time comes to prepare for tax season.

How to Save Time & Energy Using QuickBooks
Do you like to waste your time and energy every month doing your QuickBooks? Likely your answer is ‘No Way Jose!’ and should be. My specialty is coming into businesses as sort of a ‘fixer’ to clean up accounting messes and get my business owners to save their time and energy so it can be applied to their core strength…running their business!
Here are three ways to save time and energy in QuickBooks (which I’ll explore more in a future article):
1) Have your QuickBooks system setup specific to your business and workflow
2) Meet with your business accountant or consultant at least bi-weekly or weekly
3) Get it right ‘before’ you enter it into Quickbooks
Why Setting Up QuickBooks Files Properly Is Important
Neat and tidy. Sort of like cleaning your room as a kid. However, many of us didn’t have neat and tidy rooms and nowadays lack this in your business accounting. Getting messy in your QuickBooks files can be even worse!
I like to meet with my clients to listen to their struggles, wishes and goals with their accounting and QuickBooks, then offer my advice or plan, and execute in a timely manner. Being organized and having your QuickBooks files and system setup properly will lead to cleaner books in the future and less headaches surely.
QuickBooks Consulting Basics
One of the most important things I like to share with my clients is the importance of being up front to start with. One thing my peers and colleagues admire about my qualities as a QuickBooks Certified Pro and QuickBooks consultant is that I’m very open and honest with my clients. Whether they’re in manufacturing, retail or otherwise, from Tacoma to Seattle, Bellevue and North, I treat each and every client with the same respect and integrity. We will likely accomplish more in just a couple hours and get your business’ QuickBooks files going the right direction than your last month perhaps!
