This is where I specifically fumble on. From all the research I've tried to do online, I'm still not sure how to look for an accountant. Are there different types that specialise in the work that freelancers/contractors do? Is there a specific title that I should research? etc.
Those are great links - thanks for the info :)
I'm thinking of looking into accountants after I start to make money; up 'til then I'll just keep records, since I'm assuming that I won't be making enough to cover the costs of accountants for a long time during my experimental phase.
Thanks again,
JB
You definitely want to hire someone for this, unless you have a business background or are comfortable with accounting already. Accounting is something you REALLY don't want to fuck up, as the tax and legal consequences can be ugly.
At the very least look into hiring someone for a "bookkeeper" role. Often accountants, or others with an accounting background, will moonlight doing the books for small companies. Search craigslist or the equivalent in India.
