In today’s landscape, there are many challenges online sellers need to be able to navigate through, from logistical issues, increasing expenses, and higher uncertainty regarding the future to marketing and optimal management of the (often) limited capital available. Thus, entrepreneurs and operators alike need to be able to accurately understand and track their cash flows to make sure their businesses can flourish. This need is influenced even further by the size of the business and the online seller’s lack of prior background and knowledge in business administration. In such a context, business owners need to take advantage of tools that can simplify and automate accounting and reporting procedures, as they will ultimately help them scale their businesses.
