The #1 Mistake Small Business Owners Make With Bookkeeping (and How to Avoid it)

You know what most small business owners think their biggest bookkeeping problem is?
❌ Not enough time.
❌ Complicated software.
❌ “I’m just not a numbers person.”

But in reality, the #1 mistake is waiting until tax time to deal with it.

By then, you’re stressed, hunting for receipts, and trying to remember what that $84.32 expense from February even was. (Lunch? Supplies? An accidental Etsy binge?)

Bookkeeping is like brushing your teeth—skip it too long, and you’ll have a much bigger problem to deal with later.

Here’s how to avoid it:
✔ Spend 15 minutes a week reviewing your transactions.
✔ Keep personal and business expenses separate.
✔ Use a simple system (and actually stick to it).

Do this, and tax season becomes just another Tuesday.
Your future self will thank you.
