Bookkeeping for Small Businesses Cleveland

A Bookkeeper is More Than a Data Entry Clerk

Written by Kathy Dise | Nov 9, 2017 3:03:00 PM

While your bookkeeper may include data entry in their tasks, you really should have a partner that understands your business on a deeper level, down to your day-to-day needs. With this knowledge, your bookkeeper can translate their duties into a working partnership that supports your true cash flow needs.

Here’s what you should expect from your bookkeeper:

  • Save you time
  • Give you peace of mind
  • Share what they have learned from other work
  • Stay on top of the industry so you don’t have to
  • Recommend efficiencies
  • Help you prepare a budget
  • Generate reports that help you make better decisions
  • Give your CPA information needed to do their job
  • Provide insights into your business

In addition to the basics:

  • Reconcile your checkbook and banking accounts
  • Enter expenses from credit card statements
  • File sales tax
  • Prepare and send invoices
  • Pay the bills
  • Keep your QuickBooks current

Your bookkeeper should be more than a data entry clerk. If you are looking for a team that can save you time, plus partner with your CPA, we would love to hear from you. I am Kathy Dise with BudgetEase, and you can contact me for a free consultation at kathy@budgetease.biz.
