Managing cash flow is a challenge that can make or break a small business. 

It is surprising how many small businesses don't keep track of incoming and outgoing payments despite how obvious this should be.

Do you really want to wake up one morning to a big bill you have forgotten about? Or find you haven’t got enough money in the bank to pay your employees? 

There is a saying that Profit is Vanity and Cash is Sanity. With this in mind, it is vitally important to keep up to date records of all incoming cash and outgoing expenses and then manage the peaks and troughs. 

Never mix up personal and business expenses. I
t's so easy to lose track of what is what, so always keep a business credit or debit card. Then your business expenses will always be separate from your personal expenditure. 

A good quality bookkeeper will keep you on track and advise on how best to forecast cash flow. It always pays to leave this bit to the experts. - so please get in touch

Here is an extract from the latest YBC newsletter for June 2015 - in this edition we talk about essential tips for new start up and small businesses

Why record keeping is essential
It is vitally important to keep accurate records for your business (whether sole trader or limited company), the penalties for failing to do so can be very strict – including a jail sentence!
 
It is so much easier if you start keeping records from the very beginning of your self-employment or start of business and keep the habit going…keep all receipts for purchases and records of sales to customers using a method that suits you (can be electronically or paper receipts but it must be done). HMRC will accept small mistakes if you can prove you have tried to keep full and accurate records, but there is no excuse at all for failing to keep reasonable records.
 
As with everything, there are many ways to records the necessary transactions for your trading activities and it pays to take advice on what will suit you and your business.
