If you are like many small businesses, you may not think you need to hire a bookkeeper. Many
small business owners have the mentality that they can do everything themselves, and it doesn’t seem to make sense to outsource bookkeeping. With software like QuickBooks, many companies try to do it on their own, but quickly find out that they are trying to juggle their time running their business while trying to keep track of the books, and wondering if they are even doing it accurately and correctly.
How to Tell When it’s Time to Hire a Bookkeeper
There are a few key things to keep note of that should let you know that it is time to get a separate bookkeeper. By doing this, you can keep your business running smoothly, and growing, and you won’t be worrying where your money is going or that it is getting spent somewhere you don’t want it to.

If You Are Lacking Knowledge – Many people find anything to do with bookkeeping confusing, and if this is not an area of expertise for you, it is time to hire a professional. You will have an accurate picture of your business financials and won’t be hearing from the IRS about audits, or even jail time.

Fumbling for Time – Running a business is time consuming enough. There are a lot of tasks to juggle and if you try to do it all, something will suffer.

No Desire – If just hearing the term “bookkeeping” makes you yawn, it just might be
