TAMIU-SBDC Basic Recordkeeping Course Friday

A Workshop, “Keeping the Books: Recordkeeping Basics for your Small Business” will be sponsored by Texas A&M International University’s Small Business Development Center (TAMIU-SBDC) on Friday, July 11 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at TAMIU’s Pellegrino Hall, room 106.

Despite a burning passion for your new business, you won’t succeed as an entrepreneur unless you learn to keep your financial records in order. Fortunately this workshop will provide you with simple principles that will help you get your arms around bookkeeping basics and set the stage for your company’s success.

“Keeping the Books” provides a comprehensive hands-on tool that will help you:

• Set up an effective bookkeeping system and keep the right records.
• Prepare projected and historical financial statements that show where your business is headed and where it stands at any given moment.
• Analyze cash flow and develop important financial benchmarks with ease.
• Maintain records required to prevent tax time disasters and maximize profits.

A $20 fee will include Laura Pinzon’s 7th Edition of “Keeping the Books: Basic Recordkeeping and Accounting for the Successful Small Business,” a $50 value.
