7 Reasons to Fire Your Bookkeeper
                     7 Reasons to Fire 
Your Bookkeeper
Many businesses continue to remain with their 
Bookkeeper as they are not familiar with the latest 
technology advancements that could be saving them 
thousands of dollars every year.
Lets be truthful here. Many Bookkeepers will not be 
sharing information of the latest technology 
advancements as they may not be fully informed on 
cloud based accounting systems or they believe that 
the old model works. They think it's like a turkey voting 
for Christmas!
The old style bookkeeping clearly does not have the 
client best interests front of mind. This is costing you, 
as the business owner, money and time that could be 
invested in other areas. If you are paying a bookkeeper 
an hourly rate, you are rewarding them for being 
inefficient!
So, how do you know if it is time to update your 
Bookkeeper? Here are 7 reasons:
• Are you collecting every receipt manually and placing 
them in a bag or envelope to give to your 
Bookkeeper every month.
• Is reconciling your bank statement conducted 
manually every month
• Are there delays in distributing employee pay slips
• Are you manually submitting your employee 
superannuation contributions
• Do you have access to reports that help you 
understand your financial position
• Are you getting monthly reports regularly and on 
time
• Are you transferring desktop accounting files to your 
accountant 
If your Bookkeeper is using these old ways of managing 
your books, then I recommend its time to update them. 
New applications have made life easier for managing 
your cash flow and running your business. What’s more 
many applications are mobile and tablet friendly, so you
