Now that your 2022 financials are wrapped up, and your books have been handed off to your CPA, let’s talk about 2023.
Right now is the perfect time to think about budgeting. The cost of products and services changes, and you should adjust your pricing to ensure your business is profitable. Run your profit and loss for 2022 and compare it to prior years. Do you see a change in your income and expenses? For some businesses, the changes may be subtle, and for others, the change is obvious. If you can see a pattern, this will help you create your 2023 budget and beyond.
It is also a great time to budget for next year’s taxes. Talk to your CPA about the new tax laws and how they will affect your business. Your CPA will be able to help you calculate a ballpark figure to ensure you have adequate savings to meet next year’s taxes. Slowly putting this money away into a savings account throughout the year should help ease the impact on cash flow when it is time to pay your taxes.
It never hurts to plan for your future. It may help you make financial decisions that will grow your business. If you want to start budgeting, ask your ZümiFi account manager to run the reports. We are here to help you prepare for the future.
Start 2023 with a Plan for Success!
Why do you need financial management?
The real question is, “Why don’t you need financial management?” Most small businesses struggle because they aren’t comfortable analyzing and tracking what’s going on with their numbers. These reports can be difficult to understand unless you can read between the lines and see the big picture, month to month. ZümiFi can help. We believe that “working” your financials is much like exercising… We all know what we “should” be doing, but it’s often hard to get into the habit. So if you don’t like staring cross-eyed at financial reports, let ZümiFi create and manage the reports for you.
