Practical Accounting & QuickBooks Start-up Class

Yesterday I taught a group of ladies from 8:00am to 4:30pm "Practical Accounting" and a beginning introduction to QuickBooks. The class was very attentive and asked a series of very good questions relative to both accounting and QuickBooks. My goal was to show individuals that accounting is a very good tool for a small business owner to keep track of the economic activities of their company and not something magic that they need help to understand. Being comfortable in reading your own Financial Statements will give you a heads up on what is really happening and what you can do to improve your own operation. A small business owner is always going to be more successful if they have this tool mastered and they don't have to wait until the end of the year for someone outside of the firm to tell them what happened.

I have written the book "Cover Your Nut" for the small business community to have a reference book on "Practical Accounting in Plain English for the Real World". The book is available on line at Amazon, AuthorHouse, Barnes & Noble, Borders, and can be ordered from any local book store. Just ask for the book "Cover Your Nut" by RG Bud Phelps and you will have this valuable reference book for your small business library at a very reasonable cost.

I have a passion for bringing this information about Practical Accounting to the small business community.
