Set Your Goals and Hop Back on That Bandwagon - By Ruth Pringle

By saving your receipts and sales slips you can save money by providing a proof of purchase. This proof is essential for taxes as it is your only solid proof of the purchase. When tax time comes around, those deductions add up, thus providing you savings for your pocket. If there are purchases made, small or large, it is impossible to remember all of them. Also, you never know which purchases will end up being more important than another. For these reasons alone, it is vital to keep every single receipt. This rule also applies for personal purchases as well.

Saving time is also important to remember. By saving your receipts, you know that you are secure if you were to get audited by the IRS. No one wants to suffer the exhaustion of an unexpected audit. Make sure you have yourself covered, save all your receipts and save time. Keep your receipts filed properly as well. No one likes a messy file cabinet to rummage through. By putting the receipts into the correct files and keeping them neat and orderly, you save yourself time.

Not everyone will be able to keep all the records straight while managing the everyday hurtles of a successful business. A great suggestion to counter this problem is to designate one person or employee to handle the collection of receipts and file them. This will avoid any confusion that might be caused by different opinions on how the filing should be done. If there is only one system in place and only one person in charge of keeping that system in tact, there is a smaller margin for error. This practice will save you money and time.

Being accountable for your business can be easier than most imagine. Start with simple practices such as keeping your receipts and properly filing them and you will be on the road to success in no time at all. Remember, the important thing is to be efficient, even if that means a little extra clutter along the way.

My husband and I started our own business through Carbon Copy Pro. I was on unemployment and my husband was working in the little shop that is nextdoor to our house. We are very proud of our business and the success it has brought us. We have 2 boys. The oldest is 2 1/2 years old and the youngest is 6 months old. Currently, we are happy with just the two, but you never now what the future will bring! We both grew up in the small town of Fowlerville, MI and lived down the road from each other. After we graduated, we went our seperate ways for a few years, but ended up back in Fowlerville and we were married soon after. We now live in a smaller town next to Fowlerville and hope to continue to raise our family here.
