We currently have over 850 small business clients we help run their businesses better through smart bookkeeping and accounting and general business consulting. Every business owner can grow their business and reduce their stress if they run things the right way!In this episode, Jamie, Heather, and Matt discuss: Where to start when it comes to your books. The benefits of and when to upgrade your accounting systems. Common mistakes that happen when inexperienced people are bookkeeping. The proper use of cash recording with your business account. Key Takeaways: Don’t co-mingle your personal funds with your business funds. Keep it simple to start, utilize Excel Spreadsheets or Google Sheets to keep a list of your business expenses and earnings. Bookkeeping doesn’t have to be scary or expensive to get it done right. Use your business to pay for all gas, insurance, and car maintenance. It’s easier and you generally get better refund results. "Have procedures, tracking, and rules when it comes to using cash." — Matt Remuzzi
