Business Checks keeps your business organized. There is so much to do when you're starting a new business. I'll give you some things to consider and help you, while saving your business money. Having a business is great, but the goal is to make money, not keep on spending. 

When Creating your own business. You know you'll need business checks, deposit slips, accounting program, and a good laser printer for your business checks. 

Getting started. There's a lot of accounting programs out there on the market. For a small business to a large business. You can select from Sage, QuickBooks and so many more. For each of the accounting programs, they do differ in what kind of checks you'll need. 

QuickBooks uses Checks on top, or full page (3up) checks. Their templates are set and your not able to edit them. The only thing you can do is adjust the vertical/horizontal that it prints with your printer for the lines. 

Peachtree/Sage 50 uses Check in middle. You can customize the checks to different templates and even adjust what you need. Sage software is very detailed and yes, it has a learning curve to set up things correctly. Once you get it set up, then it's a breeze. 

There are different versions of QuickBooks and Sage 50. So, it's important to do your research. Look at videos. Call the companies and ask them questions. Get free demos. The more you do, it will help you to get your business set up.

How much is the software? Well it depends on what version you go with. The price will vary if you go monthly or annual which is cheaper hands down. 

When you're buying checks for your software. There's allot to select from. Security features, colors, borders, pantograph and quantity. First off. The more you buy in quantity, it will be cheaper per check. Same thing with the deposit slips. It's recommended to go with medium to high security so in case your check got into the wrong hands, it wouldn't be able to be altered. You must take this seriously or it could cost you more money. 

When ordering your checks. Ask for proof. That way you know it will be correct and or incase you change your mind on a color or something. The proof will have all of your banking info and business information on it. 

Its hard to create your own checks. You'll have to have the proper program to print on, Not talking about QuickBooks or sage. That is the software for your accounting to print onto the checks. These are special software that is hard to come by. You'll have to have the software, MICR ink, get the bank info for the MICR line, know what the software is, paper , printer etc...

Business checks  are great to keep your business organized with the bills. Their bills, vendors, and etc... so keeping a paper trail on each transaction you do is crucial. Electronic payments are great to use, but easier with a paper trail. It will show who you wrote the check to, the business check number and when it was deposited to their account. 

What if there was an internet outage for the area due to the storm? No one would be able to process an electronic payment then, but you could still mail business checks for payment. Old fashion ways are still great in today's environment. 

After you receive your checks, don't hand write it as that ink could be washed off. Use a laser printer. Why? Laser printers take the toner and fuse it to the paper. There is no way it can be washed, or altered. If you manually sign the check. Use a security pen. It has different ink than most ink pens. 

So after all of that. You're good to go. Order your business checks, and make your business look good. Don't forget to include your business logo on the order. We digitally imprint them for free. Its a good marking tool to use and you don't realize it.

There are a few more things. There are even blank checks. That is for companies that have everything they need to make their own business checks with their software. Don't order the blank checks and think that's what you need for QuickBooks or sage software. Order imprinted business checks

Look for imprinted business checks  and it will have all of the info you need to place the order.
