Here are a few of my go-to solutions for very small businesses:

- QuickBooks Online Simple Start: Perfect if you’re just getting started. It handles income, expenses, invoicing, and basic reports without overwhelming features.

- Wave Accounting: A great free option for freelancers or side hustles who want to track income and expenses easily.

- Xero Starter: Simple, cloud-based, and great for collaboration if you have a bookkeeper or accountant helping you.

- Google Sheets or Excel: For brand-new businesses, a spreadsheet can work short-term until you’re ready to upgrade to accounting software.

Whatever system you choose, make sure you also have a trusted professional by your side to guide you and keep your finances on track.

How do you budget for your business without making it complicated or overwhelming?

Here’s how to make one that actually works:

1. Start by reviewing your numbers from last year to see where your money went.

Look at your total income and break down where your expenses went.

For example, if you earned $85,000 last year and spent $25,000 on contractors, $10,000 on software, and $5,000 on marketing. That might show you’re investing heavily in operations but not enough in growth.

2. Next, set clear spending goals for things like marketing, operations, and payroll.

For example, you might budget 15% for marketing, 10% for software, and 25% for savings or taxes.

3. Plan ahead for seasonal changes too. If your business slows down during certain months, set aside extra during your busy season to cover future expenses.

4. Finally, check in with your budget often. A quick review each month helps you stay on track, make small tweaks, and keep your money working for your business.

FOCUS on the top three tasks that will deliver the greatest impact.

These should be your top three priorities for the day, or where your focus should be.

Another tip is to ask yourself, “What can I delegate?” Is there anything on that list that could be assigned to someone else first thing in the morning? If so, do it!

Take action consistently and watch your productivity skyrocket.

Monthly bookkeeping is best if you:

- Want real-time insight into your cash flow
- Make frequent transactions
- Need accurate numbers for decision-making and tax prep
- Prefer to catch (and fix) errors before they snowball

Quarterly bookkeeping can be a great fit if you:

- Have fewer monthly transactions or seasonal income

By choosing monthly bookkeeping, you gain consistent visibility and control, two essentials every business owner needs.

The real savings come from avoiding costly mistakes and making smarter financial decisions.

Rather outsource it and have us handle it for you?

Here’s what to know before celebrating the season:

You can deduct up to $25 per employee for business gifts each year. Small, thoughtful gifts like gift cards or baskets usually qualify.

100% of the cost of staff parties is typically deductible if they’re primarily for employees, not clients. That includes food, drinks, and entertainment.

Always document who attended, the purpose, and what was spent.

And don’t forget to double-check everything with your tax professional.

Want a glimpse into your business’s success? These key numbers will tell you.

1. Start with your profit margin to see how much you actually keep after covering expenses.

It shows how efficiently your business is operating and whether your pricing and costs are truly aligned for profit.

2. Look at your cash flow to understand whether your business can comfortably cover bills and still have room to grow.

Think of cash flow as the lifeblood of your business, it keeps everything moving, from daily operations to long-term growth.

3. Review your rolling forecast to see how future decisions could impact your finances.

It helps you plan ahead, adjust your strategy when needed, and confidently take on new opportunities or challenges.

When you track these numbers consistently, you gain clarity, make better decisions, and build a stronger business for the year ahead.

Partner with us to turn your financial goals into a clear plan for growth and long-term success. Book a call to learn more!
