The benefits of outsourcing your accounts

Business - 12/04/2021

Did you know that 96% of UK businesses fail because they don’t have visibility of their numbers?  

When you started your business, you probably weren’t dreaming about how you were going to manage your bookkeeping. 

That’s where outsourcing comes in. We’ve highlighted a few of the benefits of outsourcing your accounts if you’re struggling to juggle them with the other aspects of your business. 

More time to focus on your business.

Think about all the time you spend on your accounts and bookkeeping. Now imagine what else you could be spending that time on. Outsourcing your accounts gives you extra time to focus on other parts of your business, the parts you really care about. 

It also gives you more breathing room to be flexible as you don’t have to dedicate a regular chunk of time on the accounts. If an impromptu meeting comes up or a problem arises, you can focus on that completely, without worrying about getting the accounts done in time. 

It’s more cost-effective.

You may view outsourcing as an extra cost to your business, but in reality, it’s a cost-effective investment. For a start, you don’t have to hire an employee. If you hire an outsourced bookkeeper you can avoid paying employee overheads, holiday pay, payroll taxes, and training costs. That could do wonders for your profit margin.

Not to mention the potential revenue you could be missing out on. Think about it. The time you spend on accounts could be time spent developing and boosting your business. If you don’t have time to make the improvements, you’ll never know if you can do better.

Your accounts are in safe hands.

Your accounts are going to be managed much more safely and securely when they’re managed by the experts. 

You’re more likely to trust a professional chef to cook you a great meal over an Olympic swimmer. That doesn’t mean one is more skilled than the other; it just means they have different skill sets. 

Your business and your accounts are the same. You’ll specialise in what you do best: running your business. Then you can let the specialist do what they do best: manage your accounts.
