If you own a small business and your bookkeeping has not been cleaned up recently, now is the time.
April is closing fast. What you fix now can save you from paying more in taxes, missing deductions, or making decisions based on inaccurate reports later.
Here’s what we see most often when helping businesses clean up their books:
1. Bank accounts that do not match your books
When your bank balance and your bookkeeping software do not agree, you cannot trust your numbers. Profit, cash flow, and spending decisions start to drift farther from reality the longer it goes unchecked.
If you want to grow, you need clean, accurate books – not guesswork. Bookkeeping cleanup is how you get there.
2. Business and personal expenses mixed together
Every personal purchase mixed into your business books makes your profit look lower and invites unnecessary scrutiny. Cleaning this up now is faster, easier, and keeps your financial records clean for tax planning and decision-making.
3. Sales tax collected but not properly tracked
Sales tax is not your money to keep. When businesses treat sales tax as income, cash flow suffers, and unexpected liabilities hit hard.
A good bookkeeping review can separate what is yours from what you owe, before deadlines and penalties arrive.
4. Contractors paid without collecting proper documentation
If you paid contractors and missed collecting W9 forms, you could face penalties and reporting issues later. Planning ahead for 1099 filings now prevents a scramble during tax season and protects your business from compliance risks.
5. Incomplete or inaccurate reporting
Without monthly reports that show your true profit, expenses, and cash flow, it is impossible to make confident decisions.
We often find businesses are operating off outdated or partial information, leading to missed opportunities and unnecessary costs.
