Here are ten signs that you need bookkeeping support:

  • You squirm every time someone utters the word "debit" or "credit"
  • You dread having to open your accounting software package and your bills continually pile up on your desk
  • Your idea of bookkeeping is filing things into a shoebox and hoping that your accountant can make heads or tails and that the invoice won't be too drastic
  • You struggle to maintain balance between family and work as you can no longer find time for inputting your purchases and sales during normal business hours because of your increased client workload
  • You cringe when your suppliers phone number appears on your phone knowing that they are looking for a past due payment
  • Anxiety sets in as you review your financial data as you realize that it might just as well be written in a foreign language because what you are looking at makes absolutely no sense to you
  • Every year at tax time you owe the government astronomical amounts of money and then your accountant advises you of the expenses you could have deducted
  • You pull out your hair every time you try to do your bank reconciliations
  • You dislike numbers and detest anything to do with bookkeeping
  • YOU WOULD RATHER BE SPENDING YOUR TIME ON OTHER THINGS

Did you know...

If you are spending just 1 hour per day on your bookkeeping tasks this is the equivalent of 6 weeks of your year. By outsourcing these tasks to ABLE Virtual Assistant Services we can give you back that time to spend on the things that matter most to you and/or your business.

How are you going to spend your 6 weeks this year? Imagine where your business will be next year at this time with an extra 6 weeks to focus on your business.

Why ABLE?

We take things a step further and provide suggestions to save money and more importantly make more money - we don't just provide data entry.

We assist you by providing accurate, detailed and timely bookkeeping assistance, and by utilizing our monthly reports, you can make timely business decisions rather than waiting until year end to see where you are at financially.

By maintaining your books on a continual basis, provided that all the documentation is provided to us, we can have your year-end documentation prepared within one month of your year-end. This enables you to provide your accountant with this information in a timely manner so that your income tax filing can be done in plenty of time to save the necessary funds prior to April 30th. Those that maintain their own bookkeeping usually put off the inevitable until the last minute then struggle to find money for government.

We are knowledgeABLE, accountABLE, availABLE, competent, and most of all we understand accounting terms and can explain them to you in plain English.

Here are some of the ways we have helped others like you:

We helped a client that was in the wrong filing code for WSIB. By filing the proper paperwork, we saved him over 5% on every labour dollar spent.

A client was spending hours prior to tax filing deadlines trying to prepare the necessary paperwork. Partnering with ABLE saved her time to use on marketing her business.

At her last place of employment, Yvonne entered the business at a time when they utilized a shoe box filing system. She was ABLE to develop an office filing system that worked and set up their bookkeeping on a computerized system. By seeing his financial picture on an up-to-date and accurate basis at any time, and not having to wait until year-end to know how his business was doing, her employer was better ABLE to make appropriate and timely management decisions.

We helped a client that in the past had utilized his Accountant to input year end data and prepare T4's and saved him hundreds of dollars as he paid us a quarter of the price he normally paid his accountant.

Please note that we are not an accounting firm and we are not meant to replace your accountant - we will reduce your year end costs by inputting and preparing the data your accountant requires at a fraction of the price that your accountant would charge you.
