Adding the professional services of our outsourced bookkeeping company is an effective way for a small to mid-sized business to save money on hiring an in-house bookkeeping and accounting staff.
Selecting the right bookkeeping company to outsource back-office services means your staff can focus on sales and customers while the service handles the monthly bookkeeping tasks. Making the right selection provides a business partner that will grow with your needs and provide the professional services required.
There are three essential considerations any small business owner needs to make when choosing an outsourced bookkeeping company. These basic foundational considerations ensure the service selected is a good match for your specific needs.
Expertise and Experience
How long the outsourced bookkeeping company has been in business, and the types of customers they currently have are always important considerations. Outsourcing to a bookkeeping company with experience and expertise in your industry is always a wise decision. Having a dedicated account manager is always a plus.
Pricing and Services
Bookkeeping companies do not offer the same services, so be sure to compare apples to apples when considering pricing. Look for a bookkeeper that offers what you need for your business both now as well as in the future and offers pricing that works with your budget.
Support and Additional Requirements
Depending on your business, year-round support is often required on a limited or full basis. In addition, features such as tax planning and review meetings, monthly account reconciliations, and services such as virtual CFOs and management meetings may be required as your business grows.
