The core habits — separate accounts, regular reconciliation, simple categorization — that keep your books usable at tax time.
Bookkeeping doesn’t need to be complicated to be effective. Open a dedicated business bank account before your first sale, so personal and business spending never mix. Pick one bookkeeping method (spreadsheet or software) and use it consistently rather than switching tools mid-year. Reconcile your accounts monthly, not just at tax time, so problems surface while they’re still small. This is general information, not accounting advice.
