MUSINGS OF A BOOKKEEPER

Three Reasons to Outsource Your Bookkeeping in the New Year

1/10/2017

39 Comments

 
It's time for a new year, the perfect opportunity to make changes in your business that will help it succeed. If you're a newer or relatively small business, there's a good chance you don't have an expert bookkeeper on your team. If it isn't right at this time for your team to hire a permanent back-end bookkeeper, outsourcing these tasks is a wonderful solution.

Here are three reasons to seriously consider outsourcing these tasks this year:
Picture
Keep your back-end accurate
When you do your own bookkeeping and aren't trained, it's harder to ensure accuracy of all your records. It's also more challenging when you're multi-tasking, trying to do what you do best while managing the back-end. By outsourcing, you benefit from a qualified bookkeeper who works hard to ensure your books stay accurate and organized.

Save money
Hiring employees is expensive, even if you hire part-time. You need to pay additional taxes, provide certain benefits, and pay unemployment in the event of layoffs. Even simply paying for desk space, daily coffee and water can add up quickly. Outsourcing makes it easy to work within a contractual relationship, paying only for the services you need and the duration that you use them.

Make tax time a breeze
Keeping organized and accurate accounting records is essential for filing taxes in April (or quarterly). Without good bookkeeping, you risk paying additional for emergency services during tax seasons, or worse, paying heavy penalties and experiencing hassle working out tax challenges. With bookkeeping services, you can rest easy during tax season.

It's good to know that outsourcing bookkeeping to a professional service will help to ensure the accuracy of all your records. My boss has been looking for a way to make sure that he can easily get any financial information for our company that he could need. I'll pass this information along to him so that he can look further into his options for professional bookkeeping services in the future.

You make a good point when you explain how hiring a bookkeeping service will allow you to utilize them only when they are needed. My uncle is planning on starting a business on a budget and would like to find someone who can occasionally keep track of his finances, but he doesn't want to have to hire a full-time employee for help. I'll tell him that hiring a bookkeeping service would allow him to save money for the rest of his business.

I thought that it made sense when you said that one thing to consider when you are needing bookkeeping done for your business is to outsource so that you don't spend money on benefits. I have been thinking about starting my own business but I have been worried that I won't be able to save money in the beginning. I will be sure to consider outsourcing bookkeeping so that I can actually save money by not needing to pay employee benefits.

It makes a lot of sense how you said that general bookkeeping is really important because if you do it yourself and aren't trained there could be problems. Having a professional's touch anyway would be super nice because you could be sure that there are the proper procedures being done. Not only would that enable accuracy, but steps that will be easily tracked as well.

I found it helpful to realize that you can't ensure accuracy like professionals can. My sister just started a business and is trying to figure out how to manage finances. We'll have to look into bookkeeping.

Thanks for mentioning that hiring additional employees for bookkeeping services is expensive because of the additional taxes that get added on. My brother owns a small bike shop that is gaining more and more business by the day. I will be sure to recommend he look into outsourcing his bookkeeping so that he doesn't have to worry about added employee expenses as he grows.

I'm about to start a clothing line business, and so far my main problem is, I barely know how to handle the finances. Therefore, I'm thinking of seeking help from a bookkeeper. I guess working with a contractual bookkeeper would be worth the investment because as you've mentioned hiring part-time employees can lead to additional taxes in the event of layoffs.

Hiring an accounting outsourcing firm gives you access to a team of professionals whose sole focus is to save you money and keep your financial records straight. Another thing is, you will also eliminate the hiring process of your own workforce, hence it will save you a lot of time and effort.

I totally agree when you said it would be harder to ensure the accuracy of the records when you are not trained for bookkeeping. With that in mind, business owners should be hiring bookkeepers to help them with their records. It would definitely be for the best of their company to ensure that they will not go short on their finances and achieve their goals as a business in the long run.

It was really informative when you explained that outsourcing bookkeeping services can help a company save money because it allows it to only pay for what is needed. Working with a bookkeeping service makes sense because you wouldn't have to worry about training your own employees. By avoiding the training period, your bookkeeping is going to be completed at a faster rate.

Larger businesses that need assistance with strategic business planning, forecasting, financial decision-making, and the explanation of tax laws frequently employ accountants, especially CPAs. However, if all you want is bookkeeping assistance, an accounting company might not be the best choice. In general, bookkeepers are more involved in administrative tasks, whereas accountants provide knowledgeable strategic help. They can manage your books, of course, but their skill frequently comes with a steep price tag, making it difficult for most small businesses to pay.
