Xero Is Flexible

There is no doubt that Xero is an excellent system for startups, but you don’t want to be tied into a system that doesn’t grow with you.  Xero has a huge amount of flexibility built into it’s various packages.  You can start with just the core functions and then as you need them add in other functions to help your business grow.  As your customer base grows you will need a customer database and a CRM system, just bolt it on.  More staff coming on board – manage your team and your workflows through Xero, you can do it on the move as well so you are not tied to the office – particularly important whilst we are in the midst of the current pandemic and you need to be more flexible in your working practices.  

There are a huge number of bolt ons to help customise your package, use them when you need them, remove them when you don’t.  It’s that simple

Simple to Set Up, Simple to Use

Setting up any new system is always a little daunting, it needs to be done with care.  A good bookkeeper will be able to help but, should you need to do it yourself Xero offers a wealth of guidance and support.  Take it carefully and think about your choices as you make them to tailor the package to your needs

The Xero interface is intuitive and designed to help you through.  If you don’t get it perfect – nothing is in tablets of stone and you can change things. Just take  your time, seek advice if you need it and you will have all the data you need about your business at your fingertips.  

Once you have Xero on your team, you can spend your time where it is most needed – paperwork needs to be done, but without doing the business there is no paperwork so focus on that and let Xero and your Bookkeeper take care of the rest.
