The Numbers 101 for Small Business Series
Over the years, my clients have asked me to recommend good books on small-business management and accounting. I have always found it difficult to do so, as most books on the subject are either dry textbooks or too general to be of any use.
This problem was the genesis of the Numbers 101 for Small Business series of books. The series functions as an easy-to-understand reference for small business owners, and covers such topics as bookkeeping, analyzing and tracking financial information as well as the complexities of starting, growing and exiting a business. The series is distilled from the workshops, radio broadcasts and one-to-one training sessions I have conducted in my accounting firm over the years. You, the small business owner, will find within this series everything you need to base your business on sound financial and management principles.
Throughout the series, you will meet Joe and his wife, Becky. Joe owns a small business called (appropriately) Joe's Plumbing. Becky does the back-office work for the business: answering phones, invoicing, bookkeeping, and banking. You will learn how Joe worked with his accountant to strengthen his business and make it more profitable and risk proof. You will find samples of financial documents and other useful tools that you can customize to your business needs.
