My name is Elizabeth and I am new to the forum. I am going through a course on bookkeeping and one of the assignments is to reach out and get feedback from small business owners. My questions are for those who have already started their own businesses, and they are: -What are the advantages and disadvantages of keeping your own books (more or less time to do them, cumbersome, accuracy, etc)? -Do you find it better to outsource and hire a bookkeeper/accountant, and if so, what kind of criteria are you looking for in a bookkeeper/accountant? -What other tips, struggles, or information would you like to pass on?
