It's a common pitfall. When launching a new business, the thinking goes, the best way is to do everything yourself. To keep it simple. To save money. The common question at this stage is: how hard could it be?
In 15 years of helping clients set up their books, files, and back-end office systems, I can assure you that the question really is: how hard will it be a few years down the road, when you're carrying your entire business around in your head?I help owners of new businesses set up their bookkeeping, payroll and back-end office systems from the beginning.

Services
Truth be told, as a business owner you actually run two businesses. The first is the service you provide, or the product you sell. And the second is the part of your business that runs "behind the scenes" - your bookkeeping, files, tax and financial records, and other back-end plans & systems that actually fuel your business to move forward.
Whether or not the IRS is already knocking on your door, most business owners who've put off facing their finances, books, and record-keeping already know it. It's a nagging, sinking feeling. It's a little voice in your head that keeps telling you that you really should do something. Because you don't know how much money is coming in, and how much is going out.
Karen Steinhoff has been helping businesses and business owners straighten out their bookkeeping, payroll, filing, and back-end processes since 1991. Noticing that many businesses didn't have the capacity to set-up, troubleshoot or grow their operations in-house, Karen founded First Light Venture in 2001.
