What kind of accounting system does a small business need?
Running a small business is overwhelming, to say the least.
But with the right help you can look like this,
A small business owner with a good accounting system
in place
You are overwhelmed and exhausted. Often, you don’t own the business; the business owns you.
Chances are that you’re spending around 10 hours each day in the trenches.
And chances are that the rest of your thoughts are focused on trying to cope with your problems.
Cash flow challenges, staff problems, design issues, and professional problems.
You invest time in staying at the forefront of your chosen field.
And the harder you work, the harder it seems to get, right?
No matter what you do, it always seems as if there is a conspiracy to hold you down.
As a small business owner, you most likely know the term “there are not enough hours in the day.”
There are hundreds of challenges to keep on top of, like emails and administration tasks, marketing, and planning.
The list is endless, and you don’t have enough hours in the day.

Take a break for a second and imagine this scenario.
You’re driving your car down the road when you hear a weird noise coming from the front of the vehicle.
Because you’re in a hurry, you don’t stop.
Instead, while you’re still driving, you open the bonnet and try to check out the engine.
Of course, the car wanders wildly across the road while you’re trying to drive and peer into the engine compartment.
But, being pretty used to holding many balls in the air, you keep control [more or less].
You establish that the problem is with the front right tire.
So, while you’re driving – because you’re in a hurry [or have a deadline, or the month end looms, or the bank wants their money, or some other urgent reason…]
– you try and change the front tire while the car is still moving! (By courtesy of Peter Carruthers)
Wheel change by professionals not while you are driving.
Obviously, that is completely impossible and cannot be done. But I want to make a point.
You cannot run your business without proper accounting systems and support.
But that is what it compares to if you try and run your business without a good accounting system and accounting practitioner.
