Does Your Accounting Department Need a Snow Day?

The second largest snow storm since 1905 hit New England this month, leaving up to 28 inches of the white stuff in areas of Massachusetts. Many businesses closed early on Friday and didn’t open on Monday following the weekend storm. Countless employees called out because they couldn’t make it to work with roads closed across the region. Where was your accounting department during Nemo?

If you hired AccountingDepartment.com for virtual accounting services, you didn’t have to worry. Our full-charge bookkeepers and financial controllers work from home offices over secure Internet connections. Our employees don’t face the perils of dangerous, ice-slicked roads to get to work. They just traipse up the hall, turn on the lights, turn on their dual monitors, and get to work, regardless of what it’s doing outside.

What if your full-charge bookkeeper has lost power due to a storm, but your company is open for business? No problem. We’ll give another one of our trained, certified bookkeepers access to your financial records for the day, or week, or however long is necessary. Because all our bookkeepers follow the same processes and procedures, it’s easy for another bookkeeper to take over in your virtual accounting department. You won’t know the difference.

Just because we make our virtual bookkeepers work in the snow doesn’t mean we’re slave drivers! Our employees are treated well, which is why we have such a low turn-over rate. Virtual bookkeepers work from Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM in their time zone, with a generous break for lunch. They get vacation, paid holidays, sick time, and yes, time off in the event of emergencies or natural disasters. We understand things happen. But we also understand that you have a business to run, regardless of the weather. That’s why we won’t let winter storms, power outages, or any other obstacles get in between you and your virtual accounting department. We just keep plowing on, so you can get on with the task of running your business.
