Session 9: Basic Bookkeeping and Accounting

About the event: You own a business. Do you know where your money is? Keeping track of a business’ money is key. Cash is its lifeblood. Running out of cash shuts down many businesses.

As an owner you must know where your money is. Are customers late in paying? Are you paying vendors too quickly? Are you passing employee withholding on to the IRS? Are you making a profit?

You do not need necessarily to know accounting and bookkeeping. But you do need to have you or someone in the business or a 3rd party doing that work and providing that information regularly.

There are smart systems around today that are affordable. But it takes some owner’s discipline to get the business organized to get the right information into the systems at the right times.

Once set up, you will have a dashboard that will give you information that will enable you to make better decisions.

Spend 90 minutes or so and learn what to do.
