The Fundamental Five Courses
Clean up your books and set your winery up for financial success
Our process begins with organizing your QuickBooks file to ensure accuracy. Whether you require assistance with costing or guidance from our CFO services, precise information is essential. We've developed a system for setting up QuickBooks (desktop or online) tailored to the needs of small wineries. This system generates the necessary reports for management review.
Efficient transaction recording is crucial for useful and accurate reports. While there are various methods, utilizing specific features is key. Many wineries initially adopt procedures that suffice but encounter challenges or cumbersome bookkeeping as they expand.
Why QuickBooks? Because it works. It’s flexible for our needs. It’s cheaper than AMS. You don’t need a department of accounting professionals to run the program.
We call our system the Fundamental Five.
These are the 5 processes that must be set up so that your can create useful and accurate reports.
