How are we going compared to this time last year?
\n\n
\nWhat do we need to fix or change, over the next three months, prior to 30 June? What are the KPIs telling us? What markets are changing? What new markets should we be moving to? Do we look like we are making a profit, but we have no cash?
\n\nALL the above questions affect the outcome of a business. Businesses don’t generally thrive on luck. Working ON the business, not just IN the business, is vital for any business owner.
\n\n
\n\nYou need ACCURATE financial information to be able to make decisions. Then you need to be prepared to MAKE those changes and implement them. Sugar coating issues, in the hope they go away, is not the answer.
\n\n
\n\nIf your Accounting Software isn’t providing financial data you can measure, then ring and book one of our Cost and Management Accountants for help.
\n\n
\n\nIf your business needs direction and guidance on the key points: Finance (including profitability, cash flow, managing debt, KPIs, direct and indirect costing), plus Staffing and Marketing, then book Business Development for your business with Carol or Scott, on a monthly basis, over 6 or 12 months on a fixed price plan.

Xero or Moneyworks
\n\nXero cloud accounting software is still offering free migrates of data from MYOB Accountright to Xero, so you keep financial history when moving to Xero. Xero accounting is very easy to use, and comes with payroll, cash flow reports, customisable general ledger reports and a fixed asset register– for plans between $50 per month to $80 per month (depending on the number of employees).
\n\n
\n\nXero also is automatically multi user, you don’t pay extra, and provides management reports that allow you to add notes and summaries (just like accountants do). The Xero model promotes having multiple add-on options, depending on the type of operational needs your business has. The links from Xero with these add-ons is seamless and automatic. No more days of clunky push and pull information! Xero is great for small to medium businesses, where you are not trying to manage multiple entities in the one file. It can, of course, manage multiple P&L reports in one Xero file, by way of department or branch segregation. Those businesses considering moving to Xero, please ring to discuss.
\n\n
\n\nMoneyworks manages multiple entities in one database, which can be very large. Medium and large businesses, that need onsite OR hosted accounting, with the options of multiple control accounts, segregated balance sheet reports, multiple levels for general ledger segregation, i.e account code AND departments AND branches AND analysis etc and full report writing options – need to seriously look at Moneyworks. It has 40,000 users worldwide and 8,000 in Australia. It is set up for BAS in Australia and also for VAT requirements world wide. MoneyWorks might be for medium to large businesses, but it is very user friendly. Please ring Jennifer for an online demo.
\n\n
\n\nIf you require quality stock control, manufacturing or jobbing and project management, then Ostendo is a very solid solution, that links via API (automatically), to both Xero or Moneyworks.
\n\n
\n\nHappy New Year and happy business running!
