Keeping up with the financial side of owning a small business can feel like a never-ending job.

From invoices to expenses to day-to-day accounting and dealing with the Tax Department, it’s a wonder that entrepreneurs ever find the time to deal with actually providing goods or services.

Fortunately, technology has offer a variety of tools to save small business owners time and headaches on daily financial tasks.

Here’s 9 Financial Tools…

1. Budgeting Tool

Creating a realistic budget — and sticking to it — is crucial to your small business’s financial success.

Depending on your accounting software, you may be able to create budgets for your business right there without needing a separate tool. If you do need a separate, stand-alone budgeting tool, you should definitely check out PlanGuru.

2. Accounting Software

QuickBooks has long been the gold standard for small business accounting, but online accounting solutions such as Xero are gaining traction in the last few years.

Whatever program you choose for your accounting, make it work for you by choosing a tool that’s both as robust and as flexible as possible.

The software you choose must these basic accounting tasks;

• Invoicing

• Automation of billing and recurring payments
• Quote and estimate creation
• Tax preparation
• Multiple-user access
• Payroll processing
• Mobile access
• Integration with programs such as point-of-sale software, credit card processing, and Google Apps.

3. Payroll Management System

Chose a business credit card account with the capacity to easily manage employee cards (with relatively small credit limits). Not only does this system make it more convenient for your business to cover employees’ expenses such as travel, but it also can boost morale.
