    Dear Vera, I am going to teach a class at Metalwerx early next year
    about metalsmiths and business. I feel that a bookkeeping system is
    just part of what is necessary to successfully run a small business,
    an efficient bookkeeping system will reflect what is in the business
    plan. I have a shall, we say, holistic approach to business and
    metalsmithing, the entire thing has to be integrated, business and
    bookkeeping are not separate issues from crafting. One does not exist
    with out the other ( this is the Zen of metalsmithing, or so it
    sounds). 

    One huge problem I found with a computer program to run a small
    business was that if you don't know bookkeeping and basic accounting
    , the program can get you into worse trouble than a manual method,
    also computers crash. The program you purchase will only know what
    you tell it anyway. It is easier to loose data which can be very
    important to decision making with a program if you don't know the
    basics. It can be more difficult to give your accountant what they
    need to accurately make your tax returns with a program if you don't
    know the basics. 

    Bookkeeping is not a big deal if you know the basics.........oh
    wait, it is a big deal, in fact it's a HUGE deal for the survival of
    any business. Sam Patania, Tucson
