Handwritten accounts? A thing of the past.

It’s still possible to keep your own business accounts the “old fashioned” way.  It’s a rarity, but if you wish to write out your income and expense statements by hand, you’ll no doubt still find an Accountant with whom you can do business!  If you’re running a small business and you keep hand-written accounts, there is no obligation to use business accounting software.  However, the advantages of using a computer software system are that you can link to online banking services so that your banking information is automatically incorporated. 

Another reason why Business Accounting Software is a good idea is that you can use it to produce your VAT Returns and print address slips/envelopes for your creditors and debtors.  It’s a logical choice.  Most small businesses use computers, so why not extend this usage to your Business accounts.

Outsource your Payroll obligations and free up time!

It happened to me actually!  One month I received my salary completely as normal, then the following month – disaster!  As a freelance worker (at that time), I was shocked to find my “different” looking pay slip had removed Tax and National Insurance and was claiming I was an “Employee”.  The struggle to get through to someone and explain to “whoever they were” that they had got it wrong was a long and hard one.  The reason behind all this was that the company employing me as a freelancer had suddenly outsourced their payroll services.

Intelligent use of freight or shipping companies can streamline a business

Managing business transportation effectively is a key operation for a business that depends on the carrying of its goods to a range of destinations either nationally, within Europe or internationally. For those companies who are planning to expand their exporting operations to a wider audience the decisions about systems and methods of transporting the company’s goods are crucial.

There are large number of companies providing transportation services; haulage and shipping, rail and air freight and companies that offer one or more services, some companies may specialise in one commercial segment and some will organise a complete package of logistic services. Such companies can speed up overall delivery times and cut down or operating costs reduce the stress of a company having vehicle downtime and staffing difficulties.

However, the person running the business must have some knowledge and expertise about business transportation services and choices, the various services provided and related rates for the service. Ideally outsourcing business transportation services will ensure that goods are transported by the fastest route and most efficient method, accompanied by the appropriate paperwork and documentation.

Freight companies include shipping companies of different kinds such as Haulage/ Trucking carriers, Air freight and Rail Freight handlers as well as ocean transport/bulk sea carriers for raw materials and ships handling containers or multimodal freight.
