You can have the most in-depth business plan and create the best strategy for your business, but if you don’t take action, you’ll never reach the dreams you have for your business. You want to make sure you are taking the right actions in your business and staying consistent with your actions so that you create the momentum you need to propel your business forward. Many business owners feel overwhelmed or intimidated when they look at everything they need to do to start or grow their business, but the first step to overcoming overwhelm is to start taking action. In today’s podcast episode, I will help you see the difference between a business owner who spends their time thinking about doing great things with their business and a business owner who actually takes action and follows through with their plan. To see significant results in your business, you need to be consistent with your action plan. Baby steps will produce much greater results than waiting for the perfect time to take a bigger leap. Anyone can be successful if they are willing to do the work, so whether you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, I want you to decide you are going to be an action taker in your business right now. This episode is going to help you go from planning to action-taking. Stop avoiding the action steps you know you need to do to be successful. These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

Having a clear business plan and strategy in place so that you know the direction you want your business to go is one step in the process of reaching your goals as a business owner. When you take these strategies and develop milestones for each of them, you will be crystal clear on your next steps to success. Creating your business milestones will help you deepen your understanding of the process to reach and take action on each of the strategies in your business plan. Every milestone you complete brings you forward to accomplishing your overall progress of implementing your strategies in your business. Knowing the exact path and actions you need to take to reach and move on to the next milestone helps you stay the course of your overall business strategies. By reviewing and monitoring your business strategies and milestones, you’ll know if changes need to be made or if additional milestones are needed. Your milestones, like many other areas of your business, are not set in stone and may need to be altered throughout your business which allows you to quickly see any changes that may need to be done in your business and create the flexibility to pivot whenever necessary while keeping your overall strategy in place. In today’s podcast episode, I’m helping you with processes to create these milestones and decide when you should be reviewing them as well as how to make changes so that your business can reach success in the most efficient and fastest way possible. It doesn’t matter if you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, listen in to today’s podcast episode so that you know exactly where you should be adding milestones in your business. These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

One of the biggest mistakes business owners make when they are starting their business is to mix their business and personal funds together. It may seem like this is the easiest and most straightforward way to manage their business finances, but in reality, it creates additional work and complexity for the business owner, which is a costly mistake. Your time is valuable, and you don’t want to spend hours trying to figure out what was a business transaction versus a personal transaction, and if you have an accountant or bookkeeper doing your bookkeeping, you’ll find yourself paying additional fees to have them sort through this issue as well. In today’s podcast episode, I will give you the top reasons you need to separate your business funds, when the best time to create separate accounts is, and how to develop procedures to easily separate your business and personal funds. Keeping your business funds separate from your personal funds is recommended and required for many businesses. It doesn’t matter if you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, listen in to today’s podcast episode so that you know exactly what you need to do to keep your business and personal funds separate. I will even cover how you can pay yourself from the business the right way and not get yourself into trouble when it comes to tax time. These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

As a business owner, you are always looking for ways to save time in your business, but you want to make sure you are not cutting corners in one place and causing additional problems down the road. This holds true when you are doing your bookkeeping as well. I always tell my clients when they are setting up their bookkeeping systems to make sure that they are capturing information that will be helpful for them when it comes time to prepare their tax returns. But tax compliance shouldn’t be your only concern when you are doing your bookkeeping. If there are certain items you want to track in your bookkeeping, you need to set those processes up in the beginning so that you can see the results at the end of the month, quarter, or year. Remember the saying garbage in is garbage out? This is true in your bookkeeping as well. When you are utilizing a computerized software system to track your bookkeeping, I’m sure you’ve noticed how easy it is to have your banking transactions automatically feed into your bookkeeping system. There are also ways that you can have them automatically categorized for you by using bank rules. In theory, this is a great system, but it can cause problems in your bookkeeping if you are not careful about how everything is set up from the beginning. In today’s podcast episode, I am going over what bank feeds and bank rules are and how to ensure you have everything set up appropriately so that you can have accurate financial statements that allow you to make sound business decisions. It doesn’t matter if you are just getting started with your business, you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, you want to make sure you are utilizing the processes available to you in a way that you are truly saving time and not creating another task that will take even more time to straighten out in the end. I’ve seen how easily this can happen to business owners when they think they have everything recorded correctly only to find that their financial statements are a mess, and their tax preparer won’t prepare their return. I’ve had lots of projects like this come through my business just in the last month, so I want to help you avoid this costly mistake. Listen in, as I walk you through steps you can take today to ensure your bookkeeping is on the right track. It doesn’t matter if you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances, or if you are doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document, this episode will be helpful for you…
