That's a decision left strictly up to you. DaveI am a tired and retired small business consultant. The biggest problem I faced was that business owners didn't understand anything about their accounting. The worst part is they were too embarrassed to admit it. Your work is some of the best I have seen to explain it simply and comprehensively. Even a professional could learn a thing or two by studying your work. Congratulations and continue the terrific work.Dick MedvedzDear Dave,I can't tell you how long it's been since I enjoyed visiting a website so much. I was looking for some freebie bookkeeping tips (college accounting was five years ago and I haven't used it since!). I found exactly what I needed on your website and MORE. Everything is extremely well-written with good use of white space, and graphics that compliment your personality and set a positive mood.I will be recommending your site to friends and acquaintances who might be able to use your services, and I will be contacting you as my Avon and child care consulting businesses grow.If you ever need a testimonial for your site, I'm your girl!Kelly LeeDear DaveAwesome site! Every once in a while I find a little treasure on the 'net...and your site is one. I am sitting in my office, having had a good chuckle from your joke section and youtube introduction. I am also thinking that I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your creation...especially the humour.Thanks, Jane What Others Say About My SiteMy site provides a bunch of useful information, training, and help about beginning accounting and bookkeeping, even if I do say so myself. Don't believe me ? Hi, DaveI wanted to personally thank you for putting together this excellent resource on the introduction to accounting and bookkeeping. Clearly you’ve invested a tremendous amount of time thinking about and developing the content. I really liked your cartoons (they make fantastic top-level bullet points). As a start-up business owner I feel it’s absolutely critical to understand the basics of accounting and bookkeeping in order to build a sustainable business; I did not go to business school, but having spent the time to review and understand your material will help me build a better business. Your site has given me some excellent insight into the accrual method and how it is superior to the cash method, in terms of detailing the actual current financial state of the business; excellent example between cash method and accrual method (false income/expense reporting with cash method).I will be supporting your efforts!Sincerely,Jonathan YaffeHi DaveI just want to tell you how much I have enjoyed your site. There are many tutorials on the web about bookkeeping but none have touched what your site covers. I hope your site reaches everyone looking to learn bookkeeping skills. Thank you for the time and effort you have put in the free lessons. I purchased your bookkeeping practice course and it made everything make sense. You should offer paid lessons on Udemy. There are lots of bookkeeping courses on there but not even close to what you offer! ChadSee what more users have to say.

How do you get and where do you find this financial information ?

Owners and ManagersOwners and managers of small businesses who either need a quick review (refresher courses) or who need to learn the basics from the ground up.

In this day and age, I recommend that even small businesses use accounting software. That being said, some time does have to be invested in order to learn how to properly use the software.

If you work with or need to know about inventories - take the Inventory Course. If you work with payroll or need to learn about the government's laws and regulations - take the Payroll Course.
