When you’re building a business, it’s natural to wear many hats—marketing manager, customer service rep, operations lead… and often, bookkeeper. At first glance, handling your own bookkeeping may seem like a cost-saving strategy. But what many small business owners don’t realize is that DIY bookkeeping can end up costing you far more in time, stress, and financial mistakes than you think.
If you’ve been trying to manage your books on your own, it’s time to take a closer look at what it’s really costing you—and why partnering with a professional like Steve Mueller at OnTarget Bookkeeping might be one of the smartest moves you can make for your business.
Every minute you spend tracking expenses, categorizing transactions, reconciling accounts, or troubleshooting bookkeeping software is time you’re not spending on growing your business.
The average small business owner spends 8–10 hours per month on bookkeeping tasks. That’s over 100 hours a year you could be investing into strategy, sales, or customer service.
✅ Outsourcing your bookkeeping to OnTarget Bookkeeping means you get that time back—so you can focus on what you do best.
Bookkeeping isn’t just time-consuming—it can be overwhelming, especially if you’re not sure you’re doing it right. You may be constantly second-guessing your entries, worrying about missed transactions, or dreading year-end financial reporting.
That stress builds over time and can affect your confidence and focus.
✅ Steve Mueller and the OnTarget Bookkeeping team take the pressure off by managing your books with accuracy and care. You’ll have peace of mind knowing your financials are in expert hands.
When you don’t have a background in bookkeeping, small errors can turn into big problems. Common mistakes like duplicate entries, incorrect categorization, and overlooked expenses can lead to:
These mistakes can not only hurt your bottom line but also make it difficult to make informed decisions or secure funding.
✅ OnTarget Bookkeeping ensures your books are accurate, organized, and up-to-date, so you always have a clear financial picture to work from.
DIY bookkeeping may seem like it saves money, but when you consider the time lost, the stress added, and the mistakes made, it often ends up being more expensive in the long run.

✅ With OnTarget Bookkeeping, you get expert-level financial support without the full-time salary of an in-house bookkeeper.
