The QuickBooks Do-It-Yourself Nightmares
Posted By Administrator
If you’re a small business owner you’ve probably seen those QuickBooks commercials showing the pleased business owners effortlessly entering transactions into QuickBooks and with a few simple clicks everything is complete………..if only if it were that simple.
If you’re a small business owner that has gone done this route there is a good chance that you’ve found yourself saying what did I get myself into. Whether it’s excess transactions, to many bank accounts, unreadable financial statements, or any host of additional problems you’ve quickly discovered that it’s not just a simple click.
First thing I tell clients who find themselves in this situation is don’t feel bad. It really is NOT your fault. The advertisements make it sound simple, and you’re concerned with saving a buck these days………but the fact is maintaining your own books can quickly become an unmanageable task, especially if you’re running most of the day to day operation of your business.
So what can you do? If you are committed to doing the books yourself, than I would suggest that we setup the QuickBooks for you and help train you to be successful. Most of this can be accomplished in just a few hours. If you have a limited volume of transactions and feel you have the time to handle it, this is a great option. We can even do quarterly reviews for you just to make sure your not veering off course during the year. If you have a relatively high volume of transactions or you simply don’t have the time to handle it, then we can do it for you. We’ve designed our services with affordability in mind and can meet virtually any budget.
If you’re ready to end the nightmares then feel free to contact me (free of charge) and we can discuss your situation in more detail. I can reached at (443) 927-9161 (MD), (703) 637-9881 (DC & VA), or by email at travis@ramlcpa.com.
