3 Bookkeeping Tips for Small Service Businesses
(Tree service, lawn care, handyman? These tips are for you.)

Service-based businesses often run fast and lean—but without strong financial tracking, it’s easy to lose control of your cash flow. Here are 3 tips that can make a big difference:

1️⃣ Track Income by Job or Service Type
Don’t just lump all your income into one bucket.
Set up categories to track different services—like tree removal vs. stump grinding, or lawn mowing vs. seasonal clean-ups.
This helps you see what’s making you money—and what might need to be re-priced or dropped.

2️⃣ Separate Personal and Business Expenses
This one sounds simple, but it’s a game-changer.
✅ Open a dedicated business bank account.
✅ Only run business income and expenses through it.
It makes tax time easier, gives you clean reports, and protects you in case of an audit.

3️⃣ Don’t Skip the Monthly Review
Take 30 minutes each month to:
📌 Reconcile your accounts
📌 Review your Profit & Loss
📌 Make sure everything looks right
This habit keeps surprises away and helps you catch things like double charges, missing invoices, or bad pricing before they cost you.

📣 Whether you’re climbing trees or fixing fences, your numbers should be working just as hard as you are.
Let’s make your books clear, clean, and useful.

3 Bookkeeping Tips Every eCommerce Business Owner Should Know
(from an experienced eCommerce bookkeeper who's cleaned up more than a few messy files!)

Selling online is exciting—but your financials shouldn’t be a mystery. Here are 3 smart tips to help your eCommerce business stay organized, compliant, and ready to grow:

1️⃣ Use an Integration Tool (and actually review it monthly)
If you sell on platforms like Shopify, Amazon, Etsy, or Walmart, tools like A2X or Link My Books help break down deposits and match them to your sales, refunds, fees, and taxes.
But remember—it’s not “set it and forget it.”
👉 Review your clearing accounts monthly to make sure all the pieces land where they should. You’ll catch errors before they snowball.

2️⃣ Understand the Difference Between Inventory and COGS
This is a big one!
Inventory is what you buy to sell—your stock, sitting on the shelf (or at your 3PL). It lives on your Balance Sheet as an asset.
COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) is what that inventory costs you when it sells—and it goes on your Profit & Loss statement.
Only when inventory is sold should it move from your Balance Sheet to your P&L as COGS.
✅ Get this wrong, and your profits will be misleading (and your taxes might be off too).

3️⃣ Don’t Rely on Your Bank Balance
Just because there's money in your account doesn’t mean your business is profitable.
You need to regularly look at:
📊 Profit & Loss – What you earned vs. what you spent
📄 Balance Sheet – What you own vs. what you owe
These reports tell you the real story behind your business.
