It’s never too late to hire a bookkeeper. If you’re just starting out, ideally, you’ll want to hire a bookkeeper as soon as possible to help create a system that works best for your business. Keeping your books on track from the start will make a significant difference on your time management, workload, and taxes. But, maybe you’re a seasoned entrepreneur. You’ve had your business for a number of years and you’ve been handling the books on your own thus far. However, you’ve gotten quite busy, you’ve run out of time to keep the books as you have more important day to day tasks to handle, your receipts are piling up, and you’re not ready for tax season – it may be time to hire a bookkeeper. You started your business because you’re passionate about what you do, not because you love accounting (unless you’re like me…). Maybe you just want your time back. After a long days work, you don’t want to do bookkeeping. You likely want to spend time with family, relax, or you just want to spend more time on high growth areas of your business. Your time is valuable – put it towards doing what you love.
