WHY YOU NEED ACCOUNTING SERVICES FOR YOUR SMALL BUSINESS
Small businesses are usually built on big visions, often by visionaries who have a strong understanding of their market and industry. These entrepreneurs do not always have an understanding of accounting or the time needed to handle accounting. Hiring an outsourced accounting service for your small business in Atlanta is important because:
- It gets you on the right financial footing from the start: Building a strong financial core is crucial in the first months and years of business. With outsourced accounting services for SMBs in Atlanta, you can work with professional accountants who can answer your questions and set you up for financial success.
- It can save you money: Many small to mid-size businesses run on shoestring budgets, and every dollar saved early on is an extra dollar you can invest in growing your new business. Professional accounting services can help you with cash flow and save you money.
- It helps you stay compliant: The tax codes and financial regulations for new businesses are often overwhelming and confusing. An outsourced accountant can help you make sense of them and can help you stay compliant, bringing you peace of mind.
- It helps you satisfy investors and lenders: Whether your new business is being funded by angel investors, venture capital, lenders or other sources or money, chances are someone is going to want to see your financials. Accountant services help translate your business into reports that can help you stay transparent and can support you as you seek additional rounds of funding.
- It frees you up to focus on other parts of your business: Entrepreneurs wear many hats. You may be the CEO, main marketer and chief product officer. You may initially be involved in the customer-facing part of the business, manufacturing, delivery and other parts of your business. By outsourcing accounting, you ensure you’re not spread too thin, and you allow the financial side of the business to be handled by pros.

Audit and Assurance Services for Atlanta Small and Medium Sized Businesses
Entrepreneurs at the helm of a company have a lot to track down. New or start-up businesses come with taxes, payroll, accounting and planning — tasks many have little or no experience handling. For those with experience, other demands can quickly consume their time. Audit and assurance services ensure your business’s financial statements and reports are accurate so you can focus on what’s important. We at Marshall Jones set the bar high when assisting small, mid-size and even start-up businesses.
Businesses require vision, risk and big ideas. If accounting processes aren’t your strongest suit, that’s where we come in. An audit can help pave the way for courting investors, securing loans and preparing for an IPO. Audit and assurance services by Marshall Jones include:
- Planning: Our services include advisory services, such as business legal structure planning. Choosing whether to form an S- or C-Corporation, an LLC or a partnership will directly impact your tax obligations and the way your company operates.
- Protection: Audits and assurance services examine financial documents for accuracy and legal compliance, including documents from third parties. Audit and assurance services by Marshall Jones verify your business is operating within all necessary rules and regulations.
Tax Planning and Preparation for Small and Midsize Businesses in Atlanta
Tax season can be challenging for business owners, especially new ones. However, SMBs experience success when they get a head start on developing a strong tax strategy. At Marshall Jones, we have the expertise to help you manage your tax payments and enable you to stay compliant. We tackle two primary aspects in our tax advisory services, namely:
- Planning: Tax planning is a detailed financial management strategy that establishes business goals to reduce your tax liability and take advantage of applicable tax deductions.
- Preparation: When tax season arrives, we will be there to help you prepare your tax return, minimizing the risk of penalties and ensuring a timely submission.
Bookkeeping Services for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses
Your business hosts hundreds of transactions each month. It’s essential to track these transactions so you can evaluate your company’s profitability and overhead costs. Bookkeeping is a vital practice for new business owners as it maintains every record from the beginning, making it easier to manage your finances each month.
Many enterprises manage their own bookkeeping, but this can be challenging, especially if you have other business operations to tend to. There are various benefits to outsourcing a bookkeeper, such as:
- Expert assistance: It’s best to work with a qualified bookkeeper when dealing with your company finances.
- Time savings: When you hire a professional bookkeeper, you have more time to focus on your essential business tasks.
- Cost efficiency: Outsourcing your bookkeeping to a professional reduces operational expenses since you don’t have to pay a full-time bookkeeper.
Accounting Services for Startups and New Business Owners
At Marshall Jones, we specialize in accounting for new business owners and startups, helping them manage their finances correctly from the beginning. We have assisted many SMBs in Atlanta and Alpharetta, GA, by enabling them to thrive without the burden of managing their own tax, auditing and bookkeeping systems.
Our team of accountants and financial advisors will help you establish attainable business goals, start on the right foot with the IRS and develop effective financial strategies.
