How Virtual Accounting Can Help Your Business Succeed

Many small business owners see market fluctuations that can affect their bottom line. Owners seek out ways to cut costs to maintain or increase profits, while creating processes that include delegation and automation. “Delegation & automation” can be a large expense when hiring employees to handle certain tasks of the business. Salaries, Retirement, Benefits, Taxes, & Bonuses can be an overwhelming cost in a down or slow business cycle.

Outsourcing services such as accounting and bookkeeping has become an increasingly commons trend for today’s businesses, according to LedgersOnline. Virtual accounting is the newest model to traditional outsourced methods which is more cost effective and efficient. 

Technology made working with virtual accountants extremely easy and below is an excerpt from an article that explains how virtual accounting is helping companies nowadays.

The Challenges of Typical Staffing Solutions

Profit Cycles – As revenues fall, a business must cut expenses in order to maintain profit. When workflow decreases, many companies have no other choice but to reduce staff to accommodate the reduced workload. And when business picks up again, new employees have to be hired and trained again. The business is slow to respond to a changing market and that can be a critical shortcoming if a competitor can respond to increased business situation more quickly.

An alternative is to keep the same number of employees but find other ways to reduce costs. Eliminating raises, reducing benefits, or implementing work furloughs keeps a workforce ready for a sudden increase in business that accompanies economic recovery. The downside is that employee morale is likely to drop and some workers may leave for positions with more hours or better pay and benefits.

How a Virtual Accounting Department Adjusts to Your Staffing Needs

A growing number of businesses are dealing with the problem by outsourcing services such as IT, personnel or accounting. The benefit is that the company can reduce or increase services to accommodate current market needs. Because the service provider has multiple clients they can absorb fluctuations in work flow more easily.

Businesses using virtual accounting departments maintain full control over their finances but have the benefit of getting only the accounting work they need, no more and no less. They react to market conditions more quickly and have an edge over rivals who use traditional staffing methods.

A virtual accounting department can integrate with a company’s own accounting department to create a blended solution. A business that sees a sudden increase in need for accounting services can supplement with outsourced accounting services. 

Maintain Accounting Competence

Another benefit to using a virtual accounting department is there is no training delay when the company’s accounting needs to expand. Internal accounting solutions require hiring new bookkeepers and accountants to meet the company’s needs then taking time to train them on company accounting procedures.

An outside accounting firm handles their own staffing and training. Their ability to adjust the workload among a large staff means they have experienced people available who can take on your increased accounting needs immediately. When they do bring on new employees they have the financial expertise to get the hires up to speed quickly.
