When running a business there needs to be a separation of powers, meaning funds should not be combined. You should keep personal and business expenses and income separate. Mixing these funds will not show you accurate numbers in terms of profit and loss and having an accurate report helps in areas such as loans, credit cards, financial growth, etc. Implementing some type of accounting software can help you organize your finances as well as help you know how your business is running so that you can stay in business. You also want to be able to delegate work so that you can make more money. You hand tasks over to experts that way you reduce what you need to do, scale, streamline the work and free up your time and stress.
