34. 5 Bookkeeping Mistakes I See Business Owners Make
<p>All businesses need bookkeeping. It’s part of doing business and it’s part of being a business owner.<br/><br/>First you have to decide if you are going to DIY it or hire someone. <br/><br/>But most business owners don’t have an accounting background and don’t know much about bookkeeping (and don’t really have the time to do it right). And if they decide to hire it out, they often don’t know what to look for to find a good bookkeeper (it’s an unregulated field and anyone can hang out a shingle).<br/><br/>This often leads to mistakes and those mistakes can lead to:</p><ul><li>frustration and overwhelm</li><li>missed tax deductions</li><li>ignoring business finances</li><li>bad business decisions from a lack of good data</li><li>underearning</li><li>costly bills down the road for accounting cleanup</li></ul><p><br/>When clients come to me with profit and cash flow issues, I often see a direct link with the quality of their bookkeeping. After all, you can't manage profit and cash flow effectively if you don't have books you can trust and don’t know where your money is going.</p><p><br/>In this week's episode of Purposeful Profit, I'm sharing the 5 bookkeeping mistakes I most often see businesses owners make, so you can avoid them.<br/><br/>You'll learn</p><ul><li>Questions you should be asking when you hire a bookkeeper</li><li>What you’re <em>really</em> paying for when you hire a bookkeeper (and it’s not their time)</li><li>Reasons your books may not be accurate</li></ul><p><br/><em>Mentioned in this episode:</em></p><ul><li>Ready for bookkeeping help? Or want a financial mentor to help you get your finances organized? I invite you to <a href='https://www.carlamoats.com/workwithme'>book a call</a> to continue the conversation.</li></ul><p><br/>Other resources:</p><ul><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/scorpcalculator'>S Corp Tax Savings Calculator</a></li><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/simple'>Get your Simple Financials Bookkeeping template</a></li><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/moneyprompts'>Get Your 30 Days of Money Mindset Prompts</a></li></ul><p>DISCLAIMER: The information in this podcast is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an accountant-client relationship.

33. Why Does Profit Matter?
<p>Recently, I was talking to someone, and they asked me why profit mattered. <br/><br/>I'll adit, was taken aback a bit. I felt like they were asking me why I needed to breath. It seemed so obvious to me. <br/><br/>Businesses need profit to survive over the long-term. And business owners need profit if they want financial freedom or just to support their lifestyle. <br/> <br/>But profit is actually discussed very little in marketing you will see aimed at your business. Most strategists, business coaches, and consultants are focused on revenue. Very few are discussing profit.<br/><br/>And profit, more than revenue, is what really matters in determining if your business is financially healthy.<br/><br/>So it's no wonder the question gets asked. If no one is really talking about, does it really matter?<br/><br/>It does if you want to scale your business.<br/><br/>It does if you want to create generational wealth.<br/><br/>It does if you want a business to create a business that lets you live a life you love.<br/><br/>So on this week's episode of the Purposeful Profit, I'm digging into why profit matteers so much. <br/><br/>🎧 Tune into this week's episode and learn:<br/><br/></p><ul><li>Why revenue isn’t the best measure of your business’s financial health and what to use instead</li><li>What entrepreneurial poverty is </li><li>3 actionable steps you can take to improve your profitability</li></ul><p><br/><em>Mentioned in this episode:</em><br/><br/>Want more help? This is what I do in my financial coaching and mentoring program. <a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/workwithme'>Book a call</a> to continue the conversation.<br/><br/>Other resources:<br/><br/></p><ul><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/scorpcalculator'>S Corp Tax Savings Calculator</a></li><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/simple'>Get your Simple Financials Bookkeeping template</a></li><li><a href='http://www.carlamoats.com/moneyprompts'>Get Your 30 Days of Money Mindset Prompts</a></li></ul><p><br/><br/></p><p>DISCLAIMER: The information in this podcast is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an accountant-client relationship.
