So why do I need a bookkeeper if I already have an accountant? Don’t you do the same things? Well – not exactly. Here’s the easiest way to explain the difference: A nurse’s relationship to a doctor is like a bookkeeper’s relationship to an accountant. (And let’s be real - EVERYONE knows it’s the nurse who REALLY knows what’s going on with the patients, right?) So, that’s what the difference is. Now here are 3 reasons why it’s important to have a year-round "nurse" for your finances, instead of just an annual "doctor" appointment with your accountant: 𝟭- 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗿. I know, I know, it sounds counterintuitive that hiring someone will SAVE you money, but it’s true. A bookkeeper will help you capture every tax-deductible expense (before you lose the receipt), prevent double payments, increase your profit margin, and even save you from late filing fees. 𝟮- 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿. Let me guess – you talk to your accountant in April, and then you don’t talk again until next April, right? But what if a small billing issue in May turns into an overdrawn account in July? Or you need to apply for a business loan (FAST) in October? A bookkeeper works with you every single month. This means they’re able to spot the little financial problems and help you solve them before they turn into BIG financial problems (like being denied a badly-needed business loan!) 𝟯 - 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗔𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝘅 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲. If you try and throw your disorganised finances at your accountant right before the tax deadline, he’ll either (1) tell you he doesn’t have the time to help you, or (2) charge you a premium rush rate to get you up-to-date. But, with a bookkeeper, your finances will be organized and tax-ready long before the deadline. Sounds pretty good, right? So – if you’re looking to get financial strategies and feedback every single month, instead of just a yearly financial check-up, then just reach out. I help each and every one of my clients be at their financial best year-round, including payroll and Making Tax Digital compliance, and I’d love to help you, too.
