Your email likely lives on the cloud. You probably even store your music and photographs there. So you already know many of the benefits! And guess what? They’re the same for cloud accounting, including:
With advantages like these, the question is: Why aren’t you already invoicing and accounting on the cloud!? To see if you’re ready for cloud accounting, take the self-assessment below:
1. On a wing and a prayer!
2. I make invoices and reports with Word and Excel
3. I have professional accounting software installed on my office computer
1. I’m a lone wolf
2. It’s important. A lot of email and attachments go back-and-forth
3. I would love to easily share insights with the right people (my accountant, staff, etc.)
1. Yeah, it’s all up here in my noggin’
2. I spend a lot of time carefully backing-up my docs every month on my back-up drive
3. Honestly, I feel like my email is more secure than my accounting. That’s bad, right?
1. When my bank account is running low, I know I need to hustle
2. Every month-end, I run manual reports and forecast for the next month
3. Generally, yes. But I wish I had more real-time control and visibility
1. I’m constantly movin’ and shakin’ with calls and emails
2. Only my email, really. I usually wait to get back to my desk for heavier tasks like invoicing
2. I’m almost completely mobile for my personal stuff. So, why isn’t my business there yet?!
1. No reports, no mistakes 😉
2. Isn’t that normal? We’re all human after all…
3. I’m pretty fastidious, but there’s always room to tighten things up
