Good record keeping and accurate financial reporting are important for a business of any size. Finding valuable employee time for bookkeeping chores is a special challenge for a small business, which may well have fewer employees total than a big company has in its accounting department alone. Computerized accounting is supposed to help, but the reality is that many business financial software packages are geared to larger enterprises. For a small business owner, buying one of these packages means spending money for features that aren’t needed, as well as investing time in learning an overly complex program when something simpler and less expensive would do.
The solution to this dilemma is PadgettConnect, the small business software package from the small biz pros at PADGETT BUSINESS SERVICES®. Padgett has been providing services and tools to help small businesses succeed for more than 45 years, and we developed PadgettConnect to just the right scale for the kinds of clients we’ve always served.
