Ready to kick back, relax, and soak up some sun? ☀️

HUGE audiobook listener here! It is the most efficient way to devote time to your business while still being able to get other things done. I listen while traveling, cooking, doing chores, exercising, etc. It enables me to really spend a LOT of time working on my business instead of just in it.

If you're looking for some business books to dive into this summer, here are some of my favs! 📚

📖Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell
LOVE this book! Read it 3 times & I learn new things every time. It is such a GREAT book for a growing business.

📖The Miracle Morning for Entrepreneurs by Hal Elrod & Cameron Herold.
Again, LOVE this book. My family doc actually recommended this read to me years ago. During my annual checkup, I mentioned feeling overwhelmed and stressed since both my husband and I are self-employed, raising teenage kids, etc. She felt I was doing for everyone else and was not taking time for myself. I ended up loving the book and have reread it twice. I apply many of the techniques in this book now and feel much less stressed and overwhelmed as a result.

📖How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
Yes, I know this is an oldie, but it's still a GOODIE. I read this in college and fell in love with this book. I really do feel that a lot of the lessons taught in this book brought me to the successful point I am today in life and in business. So many other books build off of the ideas in this book, but I feel this is a must-read, foundational book.

I encourage you to try audiobooks (I use Audible). It will be a game changer for your business!

Are you guilty of doing this in YOUR interior design business? If so, I recommend stopping immediately! 🛑

Setup a dedicated business checking account and credit card account. If you need to pull funds from your business to pay for personal expenses, do it by withdrawing or transferring money to a personal account. Then spend for that personal expense directly out of the personal account only. It is a MUCH cleaner way of managing your financials than actually using that business checking or credit card account to spend the personal transaction. 🥸

Ready to send invoices like you were born to do it?! 💸

Use these SIX tips on every invoice you send to make getting paid easy for everyone involved.

1️⃣ VERIFY ALL INFO
Double-check that all of you and your client’s information is showing up correctly on your invoice.

2️⃣ SET PAYMENT TERMS
Note your payment terms (like due on receipt, net 30, net 60) on your invoice, and make sure your invoice due date matches accordingly.

3️⃣ UNIQUE INVOICE NO.
Each of your invoices should have a unique invoice number. Use a consistent invoice numbering system to keep things organized.

4️⃣ PAYMENT METHOD
Your invoice should clearly state your preferred payment method. Make sure to communicate any discounts/additional fees associated with certain payment methods.

5️⃣ CLEAR DESCRIPTION
Your invoice should include a detailed description of the goods or services that you provided to your client.

6️⃣ INVOICE TEMPLATE
Save yourself time by setting up a custom invoice template with your branding, contact information, and typical payment terms already populated.

TRUTH: You need BOTH! 💥

Your bookkeeper tracks the day-to-day activity in your interior design business, and then your CPA can use this information to prep your taxes.

When you're missing either piece of this puzzle, you could be missing out on valuable tax deductions.

Working with just one of these professionals is kinda like trying to make a PB&J without the jelly, it's not nearly as good as when you have them together! 🥪

Growing interior design businesses will ALWAYS run into this question:

Do I hire a contractor or an employee?

Let's run through some of the pros & cons of each option!

Hiring In-House:

✅ Long-term commitment
✅ Control your employee's schedule
✅ Control your employee's training
❌ Higher payroll costs
❌ Potentially higher benefits costs
❌ Additional compliance with federal & state employment laws

Outsourcing:

✅ Flexible to end your engagement at the end of a contract
✅ No payroll tax/employee benefits costs
✅ Can bring in for special projects that require unique skills
❌ No control over schedule or training
❌ Can lose a contractor at the end of a contract to a different opportunity

Whichever option you choose, please make sure you're classifying your new team members correctly to avoid running into major problems with the Department of Labor!

If you were going to give your bookkeeper (or yourself) an A+ on their report card, here's what needs to be done:

✅ Reconciling your accounts in a timely manner.

How can you check on this?

Run your latest reconciliation reports to see the last date your account was reconciled.

If it was more than two months ago, something needs to change!

✅ Correctly categorizing your income and expenses.

Is your bookkeeper splitting out your interest and principal payments on your loan?

Are they catching any personal expenses that accidentally went on your business credit card?

Incorrectly categorizing your transactions can have big consequences at tax time!

✅ Providing you with useful financial reporting.

A great bookkeeper helps you understand and track your financial performance towards your business goals!

Is it the END of the world if you miss reconciling your accounts for a month?

NOPE! 🚫

I'll let you in on a little secret - I've gotten more than a month behind on my own bookkeeping before.

BUT, I always make sure to get caught up as quickly as I can when I realize I haven't reconciled my accounts.

Here's why:

The longer you go without reconciling your accounts, the harder it gets to fix errors that would've been caught when your accounts were reconciled...

For example, you typically only have 60 days to dispute a fraudulent credit card charge. 📆

Having up-to-date data to run your business starts with great bookkeeping!
