Katie's Personal Chef Business: Seeking Quickbooks Help

In summary, Quickbooks is a popular accounting software that helps small businesses manage their finances, including tracking income and expenses, creating invoices, and generating financial reports. It is essential for personal chef businesses as it can save time and accurately track finances. Quickbooks has a feature for creating and managing invoices, is user-friendly with tutorials and customer support available, and can track expenses and manage budgets. While not necessary, hiring a professional to set up Quickbooks may be beneficial for ensuring correct setup and utilization of all features.
Does anyone else have their own business, beside PC? I have started my own personal chef business and started using Quickbooks and wondered if anyone can help me use and understand better.

Thanks,
Katie:)

Katie,

I also work with Quickbooks doing books primarily for contractors. Feel free to PM or email me with specifics.
 
Have you thought of buying Quickbooks for Dummies? I have a lot of customers with my other job that swear by it.

Thanks everyone! I'm drawing a blank on the questions I have.

soonerchef-do you know where you can buy that book?
 
I also am a freelance graphic designer and use Quickbooks Pro for that and for PC. If you need help, let me know.Tanya

We have it at my OfficeMax so I would imagine that you could get it at almost any office supply store.
 
Husband and I have (well had, but will reopen after the first of the year) a bar and I ran all our stuff thru Quickbooks, except payroll. (Not that stupid!!) It was easy to keep track of bills, pay them, ran all sorts of bills and made tax time super easy. If you need help, email me.
