The Hair CEO

I was a serial entrepreneur in the hair industry - importer, distributor, retailer, manufacturer, marketing agency and hair salon owner - but had no clue what I was doing when it came to the money.

It wasn't until I tried buying a house that I realized I had been doing everything wrong all along. So I got a job in IT as a Business Systems Analyst in the Financial sector and for the first time ever, learn about financial and tax systems. All that time as a CEO, I was doing the money put all wrong.

So I started the Money Savvy CEO podcast to share with other CEOs what I've learned since becoming a licensed tax specialist and financial coach.

Being told to have a separate business bank account from your personal account is one of the first things you’re ever told when starting a business. And even though everyone’s heard it, not everyone is doing it. I have a self-employed barber I’m working with now who went through my ‘B2P Wealth’ Course and while he finally started his separate business checking accounts (woohoo) he needed the last 3 years cleaned-up because his money from barbering was going directly into his personal bank account. 

So, for those of you who are running your business from your personal bank account, here are 5 reasons why you should separate them today:

#1. Ability to have clarity on income the business is generating

#2. Ability to project cash flow by looking at similar months in the past

#3. Ability to avoid overspending when buying personal items

#4. Ability to establish a clear audit trail in case you’re ever in an audit

#5. Ability to generate financial statements

During the show I also came up with another reason, so I actually had 6 instead of 5 reasons:

#6. Ability to file taxes easily without separating personal items from business expenses

 I hope these reasons encourage you to finally take the leap and open that business bank account you’ve been meaning to open.
