My post is almost late on the day I’m talking about past due invoices 😬🙃

Getting paid is kind of the point to running a business, so ensuring your clients complete timely payments is prrreettttttyyy important! ⌛️

Here’s some quick tips:

1. Ask Questions - is something going on to cause the delay? 💬

2. Offer a Payment Plan - if you can swing it, allowing them to spread their payments out as necessary is a kind move on your part and builds trust and rapport 👯‍♀️

3. Be Polite - no further explanation needed, but this ties above 💚

4. Follow Through on Consequences - if your contract states a late fee will be assessed or your work will not continue, be sure to enforce this rule when necessary 👩🏼‍⚖️

So, what’s your current process? 👇🏼

I hope you enjoyed your Halloween last Tuesday 🎃 👻 🕷️

Coming back to you this Tuesday with your Tuesday Tip!

Accounting Methods! Did you see that ‘s’ on the end? Did you know there’s more than one way to track your finances? 🤯

We have Accrual Basis Accounting and Cash Basis Accounting and the biggest difference?

TIMING! ⏰

Let’s break it down.

Accrual Accounting = Revenue is counted the moment you send off an invoice to a client

Cash Accounting = Revenue is counted when the client actually pays their invoice and that $$$ hits your bank account

This may seem small, but a change in accounting methods could mean BIG differences in your books (and thus, your taxes)

Curious what method is right for your business? 🙋🏻‍♀️

Comment 👇🏼 and I’ll be in touch to help you figure it out before you run your year-end reports for tax season 🤓

10/24/2023

Tip Tuesday time!

Decreasing expenses 😬

Do you track your expenses? I hope the answer is absolutely! But if you struggle here, there are some easy reports to review to help you determine where you can cut back.

1️⃣ Expenses by Vendor (Yearly)
2️⃣ Expenses by Vendor (Monthly)
3️⃣ AP Report

These reports will help you see who you’re paying, how often you’re paying them, and how much! They will also help you avoid late payment fees and interest.

The catch? As always, your books need to be up to date. Your reports are only as good as the data you put into your books!

Need help cleaning up your books? I’m happy to help! Enjoy your 🌮!

Tuesday Tip day is here! This week…Profit & Loss reports 😁

How well do you understand your P&L? Is your P&L accurate?

You need to think about your P&L report like anything else in your business - it’s only as good as what you (or your bookkeeper) put into it.

Things necessary for an accurate P&L:
✅ Up-to-date bookkeeping
✅ Income and expenses correctly categorized
✅ Appropriate separation between COGS and expenses

When the above is done (correctly), your P&L can give you tons of helpful financial insight, such as:

💵 Develop accurate business strategies
💵 Prepare for any necessary financing needs
💵 Know your profit margin & understand where your money is going

If any of the above has left you feeling lost or confused, I am happy to walk you through it in an easy to understand way! Comment below and I’ll send you a link to schedule a call with me - absolutely free!

Did you miss our workshop last month?! I am so passionate about helping you succeed in your business, I’m offering it AGAIN - for *free*! In this hour long workshop, I will teach you exactly how to manage your cash flow 💸, increase your profitability 📈, and improve your overall business infrastructure 💪🏼Check it out:

If you’re a Business Owner, answer this question:
Are you able to take a 2-week vacation without your business ceasing to function, let alone fall apart?

If your answer is “NO”,

Then you’re stuck in what we call “The Business Owner’s Trap”...

This means that you have successful businesses,

But without YOU working EVERY DAY, you pretty much don’t have a business…

This is the single biggest issue that most Business Owners face in 2023,

As a matter of fact, 90% of Business Owners are in this position.

Maybe your business is even struggling with…

❌Poor Cash Flow
❌Wavering Profitability
❌Inability To Bring On & Retain Employees

If any of these sound familiar, we know how you feel…

You feel like burnout is just around the corner.

That’s why we created a free training called Own a Machine. Not a Job.

Go from being stuck working in a job to owning a machine…

A machine that helps improve...

✅Your Cash Flow
✅Your Profitability
✅Your Overall Business Infrastructure

If you want to finally stop working IN your business and start working ON it...

Then register for our next training by clicking the link in the comments. See you there!

Tuesday Tip Day is here! Grab your tacos and let’s get into it 🌮

1099-NECs 😳😳

I know, I know. They’re not due until 1.31.24, so why are we talking about them *now*? Because it takes time to get prepared for filing and you’ve got better things to do at year end!

If your business subcontracted any work and paid the individual or business $600+ in 2023, you may need to file a 1099-NEC for them.

How do you know if they need one or not? I have a handy form that will help! Comment 👇🏼 and I’ll get the link right over to you!

Another reason you need to start thinking about this now - if your books are behind, they need to be caught up by year end so you know who needs one!

Got all that under control, but don’t know the first thing about filing? I offer a standalone 1099-NEC filing service, so I can help! I have limited availability, so comment below or DM me for info today!

Happy Tuesday!

Everyone knows what BRB means, right? OMW? LMK? IRL? LOL?

Now – how about the shortcut “NEC”? Do you know what that stands for?

… OK, I admit, that’s a trick question 😬 NEC isn’t actually a shortcut for messaging.

However, thanks to the IRS and some changes they made in 2020, this is actually a REALLY important abbreviation to know for your business taxes

Here’s the scoop:

NEC stands for “Non-Employee Compensation”

And, if you’ve ever hired contracted professionals for additional help in your business, or filed a 1099-MISC form for them prior to 2021, this change means that you’ll probably need to file your 2022 taxes a little differently.

And it’s especially important because the deadline for this new tax document is (wait for it) –

- January 31st - ! 😬

Yup, that’s only 6.5 weeks from now.

And if your business paid a contractor (like a web designer or a cleaning company) more than $600 in 2022, you’re required to file a Form 1099-NEC for them. (Unless they’re registered as a C-corp or S-corp – then you’re in the clear!)

Anyway, make sure to take a minute to double-check your 2022 expenses and see if any of your vendor payments triggered a need to file this form!

I’ve also included a link to the IRS form in the comments below 👇 so you can check it out, in case it helps!

And, of course, if you’re still saying “OMG” about this “1099-NEC” form 😜 just reach out – I do this kind of stuff for my clients all the time, and I’d love to help!

Q4 is JUST around the corner - can you believe it?! 2022 has flown by and I think it's time you hear more from me as we head full speed into the final quarter of the fiscal year. 🤩

Wanna take a guess as to how many business owners go searching for a bookkeeper at year-end (or even Q1 of the next year)? A LOT. 🤯
If you are a small business owner, do yourself a favor and make those contacts now - future you will be thanking you as you are relaxing come tax day! 🍹
