Then he thought QuickBooks was costing too much.

But here’s the twist…
For 2 years, he didn’t understand the real financial condition of his business.

Reports were inaccurate.
Cash flow problems were hidden.
Profit looked different from reality.
By the time he realized something was wrong, the business was already facing serious financial loss.
