Nice one Ray!

The difference is that I see bookkeeping as a way of GIVING information to a business owner. I see bookkeeping as forward-looking and the essentials of your business, your 'bare figures' as being the most important numbers you look at each week and month.

When I help clients, I make sure they're aware of the figures that drive their business so they can make decisions.

There is a great post on Kylie Short's blog [URL="http://www.tildavirtual.com.au/blog/"] about knowing your business' position each week. Cash position, sales in, cash owing, etc. Using your data in this way makes business so much easier.

My background is from audit - so I experienced many businesses that lacked information when it was relevant. Tax time is not the time to find out how your business is going!

Ray you have a difference - what's yours?
