It’s difficult to keep up with both the changes in accounting and in QuickBooks. Every couple years there is a new version. It’s expensive and not a very good use of time to have to catch up in the new QuickBooks version or having to learn the new things in accounting.

You shouldn’t have to waste your time. Instead, you should be able to stay focused on the things you’re really good at. For us, it’s bookkeeping, but the trade is not a very exciting one. We come with the work hard play hard mentality, meaning we put in the full week to serve you, then hit the slopes, go for hikes, or do a little catch and release fly fishing down at the local water hole.

Bookkeeping can be tedious for a small business. The pipeline of projects is long, and there are a lot of other important things that can get in the way of achieving it all. We know that bookkeeping, for some, is not fun. Having to continue to do it over the long run is going to leave the books with mistakes, and the rest of the business can fall apart without adequate time to spend building it.

The financial information that outsourced bookkeeping can produce can also help grow your business. QuickBooks can automatically produce the balance sheet. However, if the journal entries are incorrect within QuickBooks, the whole balance sheet is wrong. The struggle over these small mistakes is not worth the time or the money.

With SLC Bookkeeping, you can get a high quality person that has industry-leading knowledge, and can help consult your business to success. Understand your financials, rather than just hand it over to the CPA at the end of the year. Know where you’re going to be in the next several months with financial forecasting, and stop having to stress. The answers to your questions, along with the high quality work and accuracy down to the penny, you’re only having to pay for the equivalent of several hours a week, rather than a full-time employee.
