Most of the time. Peachtree Accounting Software uses the checks in the middle. But you can edit the program where you can use the Quickbooks business checks as well. Some people that are moving over from one accounting program, dont want to spend more to change the check type. If your moving from Quickbooks to peachtree. It can be easy to do with out a problem
.
Peachtree by default uses four different styles for the check in the middle. Quickbooks uses check on top, full page of checks, or 3 up personal checks. All of them can be customized to your business needs with or without lines and your business logo. The more you purchase, the more you can save in the long run. You can even use bulk blank checks and customize your own checks .

American Flag Business Checks are being used more this year

Its great to see that America is ordering more and more Flags for various holiday. Even though we just got through remembering those that perished 10 years ago today. I’m had received a payment from a customer, and i found out where he had ordered it from. I was very impressed to see that someone purchased bulk blank checks that had Flags on there and they are using it to support our country.
We need to support our own country more than what we have. We need to keep more business in the USA instead of having them overseas. Recently, we have lost two more companies that services our public and mostly families. A book store is scheduled here to close next month and a recently remodeled theater has closed due to the economy.

If your looking to purchase a new check printing program. A few things you need to know about. All of the versacheck program for 2011 (7 different types) requires you to do a few things. Each of the programs may do some things a little different, but same overall. You must purchase their versacheck refills. Each box (250 Qty) has a validation code in the box. Its required to use, to print your personal/business checks with. The validation code is to make sure your in compliance with the check 21 laws. Just don’t forget to use MICR ink not the regular ink.
Versacheck Refills
When you purchase the program and the checks. Before you’ll be able to use the program. You’ll have to validate your checking accountant before printing check. You’ll go to gvalidate.com and submit a check for $0.01, and then you’ll see the check come back through to your account. Place the check number into the program to VALIDATE and your able to use your program and the rest of the checks.
They have done that to help combat the check fraud that is occurring out there. Yes, their are other programs that is going to be doing the same thing soon. It may be a little bit of an inconvenience, but it will give you allot more security for your checking account.
Bad weather coming? Secure your business to save it

Well its time of the year again. Hurricane season. Is bad weather coming to your area? What kind of back up plan do you have for your business? Make a back up copy of your business insurance, accounting program, and other important business documents that you may have. Back up your documents off site, put it on a CD and place it into the Safety deposit box, or any other means you have. 
With the hurricane season coming, its good to always have a back up plan. Take pictures of your business (inside and out), and when you come back and you see damage, take pictures of that damage as well. It will help speed up the claim process with your insurance company. Have generators ready to use to help clean up things and any other usage you may need. Have a back up plan for your small business by using hand written business checks as a backup if you cant get to your quickbooks business checks. Have that account as an emergency account till you can get the accounting going again. Place the receipts into a box that you can balance the books later on with.
Use a bar code scanner to help keep track of your inventory

Want to have accurate inventory? When you grab a product for a customer, and if you box it up. Scan the item when it comes into your inventory, and out as well. Using custom bar codes on your inventory will keep your inventory accurate and organized. Just like using your VersaCheck Refills business checks. Each business checks has a check number.
If you do inventory every 6 months, its always good to do a cycle count. A cycle count is a mini inventory on certain items or category. Its very useful on the most popular selling items, to make sure you have enough on hand. You can create your own labels using MS Word, word-pefect, or other programs that are available. You dont have to use the most expensive program to make it work. Using a scanner is really great to use. With your inventory, use it to keep track not only of the item, but Serial Number, and Model Number, in your accounting software.
Having a backup plan for your business is always a must. Keep your business files on a Flash Drive, or back up to a DVD/CD-ROM and keep them in the safety deposit box. Back up the files offsite in case you cant get to the bank. Having a backup plan for your checking account is a great idea as well. What if your small business checking account got compromised by fraud. You can call and have the funds to be changed to a different account and makes it easy with a 2nd merchant account.
Some banks and merchant accounts offer 27/4 support, or M-F only. Keeping up with your accountant information with the last printed quickbooks business checks is a great idea. If your 
the owner, keeping up with the business is a must. Have backup plan for the business in case something happens during/after an emergency.
Want to have your business to succeed easily, cut extra expenses now

When we have a business, we all want it to succeed. During the time of running your business, we see things that we want to have. Make sure you dont have your needs and wants mixed up. Keep everything you need that is essential to run the business, but anything extra that you dont need. Cut them back or off, and it will save you alot more money.
Use that extra money you saved and place it into your business savings account, or re-invest into the company to make it grow. Cost cutting goes along way. If its been over six moths that you’ve had a merchant review. Call them up and ask for a rate review. Is your business allowing
customers to come in later, but no one is there during those 2 extra hours. Cut the hrs back some, cut the electric bill down and offer savings incentive during the day time, or that special time of the year. Make sure you have your business logo on your rebate checks your sending back to your customers using quickbooks business checks. Little things will make your business grow fast. If you need something for your business. Pay cash, instead of using a credit card or any type of credit.
Ask your customers for reviews then they receive your product and service

Asking your customers for a review will help your business to grow. Everyone reads reviews, the good, bad, and the ugly. The more reviews you have and shows alot of positive reviews. The better your chances are of gaining new customers to see what you can offer them. Just keep them happy by always exceeding the customers expectations.
When processing a professional order, like business checks. Its good to tell them one thing, but show them what you can really do. If you say on average it takes 3-5 days. Show them you can do it in 1-2 days instead. Then ask them for a review after they have received
their order. Most will reply with a great review. If something is wrong, call them and let them know. By taking care of your customers is taking care of your business.
Hurricane Season is here, make sure you backup your business files and checks

Theirs a tropical storm that has just formed in the Atlantic Ocean. The track is heading for the state of Florida and maybe Georgia. When we have a business, its important that you back up your business files and put it into your bank safety deposit box. What if your business got flooded and needed to get your business files. It would be safe and nothing to worry about.
If your business is flooded but you dont have a backup, you could loose years of business information, and accounting files. Make sure you have a back up for a backup and your business is insured as well. What would you do if your business checks were all wet from flooding, how would you re start where you left off. Check with your bank and see what was the last business
checks that had cleared and re-order business checks again.
Try to save your money a little at a time for a rainy day

With all of the economic hard time that we all are going through, we wonder what is going to happen with our money. Social security, interest rates going higher, people going into their savings, 401K and etc…. How are we going to be able to buy basic stuff if prices keep on going up, and to make things worse that our government doesn’t reach the deal to increase the debt limit.
Best thing to do, even during hard times its to put money aside each pay period. Even if its $5, it will add up. This goes for personal and business useage. What if something happens with the economy, or slow times and you need money? What would you do and where would you get extra money from? Best thing is from your savings account. With a business, we all need business checks and if you dont have enough money to buy them, then it can create a rolling echo affect. By having extra money in case something bounced like the quickbooks business checks that you use for payroll, would be covered. Having a little on the side can really help your business
succeed during rainy days.
So many colors you can find for bulk blank business checks
posted by Happy Business Guy @ 10:02 PM

Their are so many bulk blank business checks on top you can find with different styles. You can get them with lines, with out lines, signature line only, or no lines at all. Some styles are available in marble, solid color, lattice, prismatic and others. Accountants love to have variety, as it helps to seperate their customers accounts, or their own.
Having a different color for each accounts, helps to make your account easier and organized. If you have 20 accounts, you dont want to have one color for each. Some do, but its just a preference. If you print your own checks, make sure you take it to the bank and have them to run a test to make sure you have everything correct. Failure to do so, can result in the check being returned. You dont want that to happen to your vendor or customer.
I have become again another victim of debit card from. I conduct all of my business here in the USA, not overseas. With the business and personal use. I would say I process less than 200 transactions a month. I use three main vendors. I pay most of the vendors/bills with a check vs a debit card. I have used the debit card locally, and I think that’s where the fraud has happened.
Reduce the amount of transactions you do locally, and out of state and ask if you can be issued a check instead. A check can be compromised, but less likely of fraud than a debit card. Business checks with their security features will help to protect your business. With the newer account I just opened, the fraud had happened in just a matter of hours. The transaction that took place was for over $500. For something that large, it may be good to file a police report for that, even though the transaction took place overseas. The police report can/will help you in case something does come back to you, and is used legally. Do not email your debit credit card via email.
Sales slow? Why not work on your site and make sure SEO is updated

During this past week, it has been slower than normal for sales. Usually a week before a major holiday, we’ll see sales slower then, but not this early. What are you doing since sales are slow, and not processing alot of orders? Have you cleaned up your website, and checked to make sure the SEO is completed on the site? SEO really makes a huge difference on the site if its completed or not.
Re-check your main key words to see if any of them needs to be changed, or added. Make sure each category, sub category, and product page is completed. Just like ordering cheap business checks. If its not signed, the check wont be any good. Same principal with the SEO. 100% optimized webpage will be seen more by the search engines. SEO and doing blogs really does help your site. Its not easy having an online store, but it does take alot of time, just like having a regular brick & mortar store. Gota keep it clea
