Keeping Track of Your Billboard Company Financials

You used to have to pay an accountant to keep track of your billboard company financials or spend several hundred dollars for accounting software which would only run on a single computer.  If your accountant was on vacation or your computer crashed you had no access to financials.  Those days are no more.

I recommend  Quickbooks by Intuit to keep track of your billboard financials.  I use it for my lending companies as well as my billboard company and highly recommend it.  Here are the benefits.

• The service is cheap ($10-25/month depending on the number of users).  
• You can give your accountant free access to quickbooks at tax time which limits the number of info requests you'll have to field at tax or audit time.
• The service is on Intuit's servers which means you can conveiniently access financials from any internet connection.
• The service is secure and reliable.  I cannot remember a service outage apart from normal maintenance as long as I have been a customer.
• You can set up recurring invoices for long term outdoor clients.
• The system can process credit card as well as cash or check payments.
• The service can also handle payroll accounting issues which frees up your time for more important matters.
