1. Why would a company utilize outsourced accounting services?

Outsourcing services have become a mainstream practice in the business world and accounting is not an exception. Many companies use outsource accounting services to handle either all aspects of their financial department needs or they utilize it for part-time help. Either way, companies who hire an outsourced accounting firm do not have to deal with the burdens and expense that come with having in-house employees.

Top reasons why a company would outsource their accounting needs are:

• Cost: Companies save money by outsourcing their accounting by not having to pay for email and software licensing, employee’s benefits, taxes, paid time off, or the time it takes to hire, train and setting up office space. We minimize our client’s internal costs by 30-50%.

• Scalability and customizable approach: You pay for the services and level of accounting help that you need. If your company has a CFO but could use a quality Controller once a week to handle financial reporting, or maybe your business has a Controller, but could use a Staff Accountant or Bookkeeper to help with those tasks.

•  Having industry-specific accounting experts and software specialists: It’s important that your outsourced accounting team understands your industry’s specific accounting needs and can get up and running on your accounting software quickly.

• Business owners have more time to work on their business instead of crunching numbers: Spend time that makes you more money, instead of costing money.
