The Hudson Valley Business Network | #MTMN

As the holiday season approaches, tax time looms for small businesses. At The MTM Institute, we prioritize the importance of being financially prepared before the end of the year to avoid any last-minute chaos. Whether this means doing it yourself or hiring help, now is the time to begin preparing.

Fortunately, our MTM Network is here to provide guidance for whichever route you choose. We’re partnering with small business bookkeeping expert and CEO of BooksTime, Jesse Gildesgame, to offer this free bookkeeping course for tax season. Jesse will help us all make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes while leaving enough time to enjoy the holidays.

Why Small Businesses Need to Prepare Now

The holiday season is a busy time for entrepreneurs, but when tax preparation takes a back seat it makes the new year more chaotic. Waiting until the last minute to gather documents and organize your books can lead to costly errors, missed deductions, and unnecessary stress. Taking the time now to get your finances in order can ensure a smooth tax season and free up your time for what matters most—running your business.

DIY Bookkeeping vs. Outsourcing: When To Leave It to the Experts

DIY bookkeeping can be appealing to business owners looking to save money, but it comes with risks and challenges. For bigger or more complex businesses, it also comes with a huge learning curve. Meanwhile, outsourcing simply comes with a fee, and the benefits often outweigh the investment when it comes to saving time and avoiding errors.

For small businesses with the budget, outsourcing bookkeeping offers peace of mind and long-term savings. For those who don’t have the budget, our DIY bookkeeping meetups are a great alternative to get you there. Learn how the consistency and accountability of meeting weekly or monthly can transform your bookkeeping before the new year.
