What Does an Outsourced Controller Do?

First, let us start by defining the responsibilities of an outsourced controller. An outsourced controller wears many hats and can assist every financial department of your small business.

The principal responsibility of an outsourced controller includes managing the accounting function of your small business. They accomplish this in various ways.

Financial Statement Preparation

Small business financial controllers help prepare your financial statements. Financial statements help you keep track of your small business’s financial information, including liability and progress tracking.

Finance And Accounting Services

Accounting services allow your small business to remain on the path toward meeting your financial goals. They also benefit your small business by ensuring every financial decision you make complies with federal and state laws.

An unethical financial decision can cost your business thousands of dollars and its reputation.

Credit Control

If your small business extends credit to your clients, you must make sure your business strategy stays financially responsible. In other words, you do not want to lend money to clients who have a low probability of paying you back on time.

A financial controller service can assist you in developing a strategy that benefits both your business and your customers.

Payroll

Payroll management can be a stressful part of running any business. Naturally, you want to pay your employees as much as possible.

However, overpaying your employees can put you in serious debt if you do not generate enough revenue to earn a healthy return on your investment. An FC will determine the appropriate salaries for your employees.

Reporting

Financial reporting is a crucial part of your small business. It certifies that your company abides by legal regulations and follows tax laws.

Financial reporting also helps you make wiser decisions moving forward.

Analysis

You can enjoy another benefit of hiring a remote financial controller as they can run an in-depth financial analysis of your small business.

This analysis will allow you to identify the strengths and weaknesses of your business and make improvements.

Forecasting

In business, you must think about your long-term future. At the beginning of each year, you should know where you want to be by the year’s end.

An FC will project annual revenue for you so you can make real-time adjustments to meet your goals.

What Type of Business Needs an Outsourced Controller?

While any business can benefit from a financial controller’s services, most companies that outsource their financial management duties struggle with cash flow issues.

Why Should I Hire a Virtual Financial Controller?

Your small business should hire a financial controller if you require assistance regaining financial stability.

An outsourced controller can recommend changes that will help improve your small business’s financial standing and get you out of debt.

When To Use Outsourced Controller Services

If your small business has trouble closing your books, it may be an ideal time to invest in outsourcing controller services.

Similarly, if your company needs to prepare for acquisitions or a merger, a full-time financial controller can help you get your finances to facilitate these deals.

Benefits of an Outsourced Controller

An outsourced controller can provide several additional benefits to your small business.

Outsourced Controller Services Allows for Confidentiality

One of the benefits of outsourced services is it allows you to keep confidential information safe and secure. You do not want your employees to see private information about their coworkers.

A professional team will ensure you take care of your daily accounting responsibilities. No longer will you have to worry about falling behind on your books.

Outsourcing Controller Services Cost Less Than a Full-Time Controller

Outsourcing controller services cost less than what it would cost to hire a full-time controller. You may be overpaying for a controller who does not have enough responsibilities to justify their salary.

What’s the Difference Between a Controller and a CFO?
