Bookkeeping used to completely frustrate me and as a result I had to find a simpler way which I want to share with you. People in small enterprises tend to prefer doing more significant activities like getting, listening to and keeping customers in preference to doing their bookkeeping. Bookkeeping is a ‘chore’ that very few people look forward to doing but must be performed on a consistent basis to avoid problems.
I asked my accountant for advice and he persuaded me to use Sage Software which turned out to be a small business accounting software package. Without even looking at software I naively went ahead and purchased the lowest cost package I could find. Looking back I am lucky I didn’t spend too much cash on this as this package is possibly the worst and most complex system I have ever had the misfortune to use. To be straight with you whenever I discover the word accounting together with the word software I am immediately reminded of the first wisdom I want to share with you and that is just about all small business accounting software assumes the user possesses good working knowledge of bookkeeping.
I had to find a solution that would work for me so reluctantly I swept my schedule and allocated quality time to find a solution. The good news is I discovered a really excellent solution, it’s an internet system called salesorder.com.
Definitively the best software I have come across, salesorder.com works on the web and is thoughfully designed and of course lets me do my job anywhere I can connect to the web. Better still and the third piece of wisdom I want to share with you is that the team who work at salesorder.com are not just very knowledgeable of their service but they know a tremendous amount about the challenges of operating a small enterprise and have taught me the bookkeeping I need to know.
