Open separate accounts

Use a dedicated bank account and, if possible, a card exclusively for the business. Never pay personal expenses from the business account.

Pay yourself a salary

Transfer a fixed amount to your personal account instead of taking money whenever you need it. That way you know how much the business really earns.

Set aside for taxes

Save 25% to 30% of your profit for taxes. It will save you from surprises at year-end.
