As a service business owner, you must understand your numbers, like being able to read and interpret financial statements, knowing your breakeven point, and having a good handle on cash flow.

When you know your numbers, you can make informed, strategic decisions about where to allocate resources and which products or services are most profitable. Good number-crunching skills will help you run your business more efficiently and effectively. Though, it’s too stressful to keep all those numbers organized in your head, so you need tools and software to manage that for you.

Meet Garrett Baird, CEO of The Neat Company, a software company that provides financial management tools to small businesses. He started the company in order to help entrepreneurs who are struggling with organization and management. The goal was always to make life easier for business owners so they could focus on what they're passionate about. Now, businesses worldwide rely on Neat's software to keep things organized - it's no wonder Garrett is seen as a visionary in this space!
