Businesses that operate during heavy tourist seasons encounter some unique bookkeeping demands. Shifts in seasonal demand, changing payroll needs, fluctuating inventory levels, and a constantly-changing cash flow necessitate a bookkeeping system that is flexible and adaptable. Checkeeper has been serving thousands of businesses and bookkeepers—including those for seasonal and tourism businesses—for over a decade, and is versatile enough to handle the check printing and mailing for tourist businesses of all sizes and types.
Businesses that cater to tourists are familiar with the rises and falls in revenue that comes with the changing season. If you are fortunate enough to run a business in a region that offers year-round activities and events for tourists, you likely experience multiple seasonal peaks during the year. If your business has really one major tourist season, however, you know the challenges of generating an outsized revenue during key months to cover your business during the inevitable slowdown. Checkeeper adapts to the changing seasonal demands that tourism businesses often face. While you may need hundreds of checks for vendor payments, inventory, insurance, space rental, equipment leasing, and paychecks during some months, you may only need a handful during others. Checkeeper offers unlimited check printing all month long—for as many months as you are subscribed. Print one check or one-thousand, all for the same monthly price.
Business owners that see wide seasonal fluctuations in revenue may choose to take on a secondary revenue stream to help cover the slower months. Checkeeper is designed to cover as many businesses as you own, all from within one dashboard. Add a second (or third or fourth) business to your account, and manage all of them seamlessly from the same login and account page. Each new business incurs its own subscription and obtains its own:
· Online check registry
· Saved add-ons
· Saved templates
· Stored signatures
· User permission settings
· Uploaded logos and images
· Reports features
Many people who offer services for tourists do it as a seasonal side gig. Business owners who want to give their checks a more elevated professional upgrade on those occasions they use the checks for business purposes benefit from Checkeeper’s adaptability and versatility. Checks look more professional—and more memorable—when they include an uploaded color business logo that matches the other marketing material a company sends out. Checkeeper’s template options allow uploading of unique logos and other design images that side-gig owners can place on the checks printed for business purposes.
Only online check printing can offer safeguards against the errors, duplications, omissions, and entry mistakes common to manual recording and data entry. Checkeeper offers an online registry that automatically records and stores the details of each check created for later review, reconciliation and expense tracking. The online Checkeeper registry is searchable according to any check field—including the ones you add or amend yourself—while full or date-specific check registry reports are available to users on demand. Export a list of checks created within a custom time frame, or download your entire check history when needed for tax preparation or to share with your accountant.
The best financial management tools for tourism businesses are those that can adapt to seasonal shifts since some areas see tourism all year, while other tourism-based businesses experience a peak season followed by a slowdown. Checkeeper is a versatile, online check-printing software that can adapt to any business’s changing payment and payroll needs. While some months may require a high volume of check payments to be issued, slower seasons may only require the few payments to keep basic operations running. Checkeeper has no minimums and no limits on the number of checks that a business can print each month, including checks you may need for changing payroll situations. Checkeeper allows unlimited check printing all month long, no matter how many checks are needed, how many bank accounts are owned, how many people you employ, or how many authorized users need to access the account.
