    • Why do you need a bookkeeper?

    Most business owners who do their own books say they want to maintain privacy of their financial matters. However, most of them spend far too much time focusing on keeping their books in order and therefore, forfeit time that could be spent on other business tasks or with family, friends, or even relaxing. Then they find themselves scrambling for tax season. If your books aren't in order, you risk having your CPA (who can cost as much as $200 an hour) having to organize them prior to doing your taxes. By having them ready to go and properly prepared, you can save valuable time and money. Bookkeepers are skilled in just that: keeping books. It's what they do for a living. Not only can they make sure your checks are written out properly and expenses and assets are properly accounted for, but they can also find different tax exempts you may not be aware of currently.
