Accounting software like Xero can really help you to manage your day-to-day finances and keep on top of your cash flow. To get started, all you need is an email account, although you will get charged by the month to access the software. Xero offers dozens of ‘how-to’ videos that will help you enter receipts, create invoices and connect automatically to your business bank accounts. If you find it overwhelming, you can request help over the phone or ask an accountant or bookkeeper to walk you through the areas you will use the most.
