Synopsis

"Bookkeeping can absolutely be the difference between bankruptcy and success,"” says Angie Mohr. "You can't know how your business is doing until you record it."

Bookkeepers’ Boot Camp is the first book in the Numbers 101 for Small Business series. It shows small business owners the essentials of record keeping, and why it's crucial to a business’s success to track financial data. The book gives business owners a greater understanding of the purpose and process of record keeping and a deeper understanding of their businesses.

Mohr has helped hundreds of small business owners who didn't understand the importance of record keeping and always put it off until "later." These business owners were almost literally buried under a pile of papers, overwhelmed by the immensity of the task at hand. Mohr shows business owners how to sort through the masses of information and paperwork, record what is important, and how to use that information to grow a business for success!

Eighty percent of all small businesses started this year will be gone in 5 years. As Mohr says, starting a small business can be "like driving a car in a foreign country where you don't know what the road signs are telling you."

Numbers 101 for Small Business is a new series of easy-to-understand guides for small business owners, covering such topics as bookkeeping, analyzing and tracking financial information, starting a business, growing a business, and exiting a business. Using real life examples, Mohr teaches small business owners how to beat the odds and turn their ideas into successful, growing companies.
