Digg it UP - Keep it Business, Not Personal
One of the deeply rooted myths about how managers achieve success is that they are single-minded and quick in their decision-making. The literature of management has created a macho image about making tough decisions fast.This is not a true picture of succe

Sponsoring a well-respected trade show speaker at the conference where you exhibit represents an exceptional marketing opportunity. Speaker sponsorship enables you to strengthen visibility and awareness of your company and product, enhance your image, attract more visi
The first thing I recommend is to open a separate checking account just for your business. Use this account to deposit all self-employment income. Do NOT use this account for wages received from an employer. This account needs to be totally separate. You will pay all your business related expenses solely from these funds. When you pay business expenses from your personal account, it is much more difficult to accurately track how much money you are spending for your business. And, missed expenses could mean missed tax deductions!
The other suggestion I have is to open a credit card specifically for your business expenses. Make sure you choose a card that suits you and your business well: i.e. cash back, travel rewards, etc. Use this card for all your business purchases and of course, make payments to it with your new business checking account. For more detailed benefits on a dedicated business credit card, I highly recommend reading Charles Clar’s article at http://creditcards.youngparentsmagazine.com/A-Dedicated-Credit-Card.htm
Last but not least, I recommend purchasing some form of accounting software. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy or expensive, just a place for you to enter your income and expenses for your business. Even a very simple program can provide you with financial reports demonstrating your company’s profitability, as well as help you to set a budget. Most programs also give you the option to print reports that aid in tax preparation.

As with any other financial decision, I highly recommend you meet with an accountant or tax preparer on an annual basis at the very least. He/She will be able to direct you in the best ways to make the most of your hard earned money.
