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 which 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 to 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…

When you think about how far you’ve come in your business, do you feel proud of yourself? Most business owners will answer this question by thinking not really or talk about where they need to go in their business as they dismiss the question so that they don’t feel like they are being annoying or overconfident with themselves. It is easy to complete an accomplishment or goal and quickly start to focus on the next goal without taking the time to acknowledge your success. Being proud of your accomplishments and giving yourself a pat on the back for doing an amazing job can be hard to do for yourself, but you wouldn’t even think twice if your child accomplished something big, or a friend just nailed one of their goals, right? In today’s podcast episode, I am going to help you to understand why thinking about being proud of your achievements is OK to do and why it isn’t coming from a place where you are just trying to get additional attention or even being egotistical. It is simply to prove to yourself that you have shown up, done the work and have made a difference in the world. That deserves a celebration, and 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. The accomplishments you are achieving will be different at every stage of your business, but no matter how big or small, you need to recognize your accomplishments so that you are able to strive to be better in the future. Listen in, as we talk about how taking the time to be proud of yourself for your accomplishments will make an impact on not only yourself, but the success of your business as well. 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…

Whether you set goals at the beginning of the year or you have resolutions you have promised yourself you’d do in the new year, now is the time to make sure you are on track so that you can follow through with your goals and resolutions for the remainder of the year. I’m sure that you’ve heard that most people will quit their resolution after just one week. When asked why they don’t stick with their resolutions, most people will say that they don’t have the time, resources or support to keep the motivation up so that they can stick to their resolution. This can be true of goals as well. When you want to ensure you are reaching your goals and sticking to your resolutions, you need to make sure you are following through.

Resolutions and goals are important to your business whether 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. Many of the resolutions business owners make revolve around the organization of their financial data or bookkeeping. Listen in, and let me help you make a lasting change with the resolutions and goals you’ve set for this year.

When it comes to finances, many business owners want to ignore these issues and hope they go away, or want to do everything all on their own, but the most successful entrepreneurs know exactly where they need expert advice as well as who they can turn to for advice they can trust. As your business grows, your team needs may change as well, but it is important to make sure that you have everything under control at each level you are at in your business. Understanding and having a reliable team you can lean on is key whether 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.
