If there’s a manual task in your business that’s taking up time, automate it. Automation removes the manual workload and streamlines your processes.
The more time you and your team spend on low-level administration, data-entry and form-filling, the less time you have available for actually running the business. With your software tools maximised, your automated processes can be chugging along in the background, doing the heavy lifting and freeing up your time to focus on client service, sales and strategy etc.
Here are some core processes that will benefit from automation:
Automated bookkeeping – cloud-based accounting software such as Xero offer you the opportunity to automate your bookkeeping and record-keeping. Sales data and expenses flows automatically from your bank to your books, saving you time from having to do this manually.
Automated credit control – chasing up debts and late-paying customers takes time. Automated credit control apps track your debtor numbers and automatically sends out customised chaser emails as soon as an invoice is late. This reduces your credit control time, speeds up cash collection and cuts your aged debtor figure.
Automated reporting and forecasting – the better your reporting and business intelligence, the easier it is to make informed decisions about your company strategy. Accounting platforms now offer automatic, real-time reporting and forecasting, giving you access to the important numbers and metrics, fast.
