Let’s see a show of hands: how many of us have heard the conventional advice that a bookkeeper should be your first business hire?
Speaking as an accountant who runs a bookkeeping business, let me just set the record straight: bookkeepers are valuable when you’re in the right stage of business, but they aren’t essential for all stages and—in most cases—it’s in your best interest not to hire a bookkeeper first.

Who will be your business’s next hire?
