Old Saybrook, Conn. ~ The Southeastern Connecticut chapter of SCORE, a nonprofit association dedicated to the success of small businesses, continues its year-round series of Small Business Workshops with “Managing Your Business Finances 1 (QuickBooks).” You have started your own business. Now what? You have bills to pay, customer sales to track, and taxes to file which requires paper, paper, and more paper. So you start a spreadsheet for bills, and one for sales, and one for a list of customers. This workshop will provide practical, easy to use guidance and tips to help ensure that your Chart of Accounts get you to the right financial information, and that it aligns with your use of QuickBooks. Participants are welcome to bring a laptop with QuickBooks loaded so they can follow along with the presenter.
