Online Bookkeeping: Financial Intelligence for Proper Analysis
Welcome to Pulse, your ultimate online bookkeeping partner. You already know the importance of accurate and timely information for financial decision-making as a bookkeeper. Pulse takes all of the complexity of your financial data and turns it into simple and actionable insight—making your job easier and your clients’ businesses more successful.
Why Online Bookkeeping Matters
Every business relies on precise bookkeeping. It keeps things in order and on the radar from every transaction made to every single expense incurred. Today’s world, though, is fast moving, so the traditional ways won’t suffice. That’s when online bookkeeping comes into play.
The Power of Financial Intelligence
Financial intelligence provides instant access to financial data to make quick, informed decisions in online bookkeeping. We call that financial intelligence. Not knowing the numbers is not about knowing the numbers; it’s about understanding them. That’s where Pulse steps in to help transform the data into actionable insights so you can advise and support your clients even better.
Pulse Dashboard: Your Financial Command Center
The Pulse Dashboard is your new best friend. It brings all your key metrics together in one place, so you can see the big picture. Here’s what you can measure:
Sales and Turnover
Keep track of your clients’ sales and turnover easily. With the Pulse Dashboard, be on top of current figures to monitor performance and track trends. It is important to know how well products sell or services are received. Knowing this serves as a basis for most decisions in business.
Costs
Managing costs is just as critical as managing sales. Let Pulse track all of the small — and big — expenses. By keeping close tabs on your clients’ costs, you’ll be helping them find ways to save money and boost their bottom line.
Gross Margin
Understanding gross margin is key to assessing business health. Pulse works it out for you and displays exactly how much profit has been delivered after costs associated with goods sold are covered. It is this insight that is so important for price setting, cost management, and increased profitability.
Trend Analysis
Pulse takes trend analysis to a whole different level. Looking at data over time, you can perceive trends and, in effect, explicitly forecast future performance. This is where you’ll be able to advise your clients on the best times to invest, expand, or cut back. It’s almost like looking into a crystal ball while planning business ventures.
Business Snapshot: A Quick Overview
You sometimes need an instant synopsis of how your business is doing. Business Snapshot within Pulse does just this. The total sales, total costs, and gross margin are summarised. With just a few seconds, you have a sharp snapshot regarding the health of the business.
Total Sales
Knowing the total sales is fundamental. Pulse provides you with a clear number so that you will always know how much money is coming through the gate. It helps to set targets and measure progress. For example, it would show the target of five thousand, the total cost and total sales.
Total Costs
It can be a headache to keep track of total costs manually. Pulse does most of the hard work and gives you a single figure of all costs. This way, you clearly see where your money is going and how you should manage your money better.
Gross Margin
Pulse’s gross margin figure shows you how profitable the business is after covering costs. It is one of the critical metrics describing the overall financial performance to help in strategic decisions.
Credit Score: Building Trust and Security
They’re not just for people; businesses have credit scores, too. Pulse is going to track changes in your clients’ credit scores, giving you an inside look at their financial stability. Having this opportunity for a good credit score can open doors for loans or partnerships. This can be very instrumental in watching so that your clients can help in establishing trust and security.
Why Credit Scores Matter
A business’s credit score determines whether it could borrow money or even set up payment terms, and attract investors. Pulse helps you track this very important number so that your clients can retain a healthy financial reputation.
