What are the benefits of automation for businesses?

Updated: Jun 30, 2023

As a #bookkeeper that has been in practice for 8 years, I have learned that some tasks do not need my personal attention. Instead, I have invested in automating as many simple, repetitive processes as possible. Through this experience, I have come to understand the many benefits of automation for business owners.


One of the biggest benefits of automation is the time saved on administrative tasks. Automating processes frees up valuable time that can be spent on growing and improving the business. As a result, I have been able to take on more clients and provide them with better service. It also means that I have more time to focus on developing my skills and expanding my knowledge base.


Another significant advantage of automation is that it helps keep clients on track with their deadlines. For instance, my clients receive automatic reminders about upcoming #VAT or #CIS deadlines. This means that their submissions are submitted well in advance of the deadline, reducing the likelihood of penalties and other issues.


Knowing that some tasks are automatically dealt with gives me peace of mind and relieves stress. I receive emails and updates that keep me in the loop, so I can see clearly that these tasks are being dealt with, without me lifting a finger! This level of automation has been a game-changer for me, allowing me to be more productive and focused on important tasks.


Using automation within your procedures can also make it simpler when a new team member joins you. For example, my practice management software delegates tasks to a team member, and the associated emails are automatically sent at the required time. This means that the content is exactly as I require it and follows the #EdenBookkeepingSolutions branding. It also helps new team members understand the procedures and expectations of the business more quickly, reducing the need for extensive training.


In conclusion, automation offers many benefits to business owners. It saves time, reduces stress, and ensures that important tasks are completed accurately and on time. If you are a business owner looking to streamline your processes and improve your efficiency, I highly recommend exploring automation solutions.
