Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Good accounting provides real-time visibility into your agency’s financial health, enabling better decision-making, improved profit margins, and strategic growth. With the proper accounting method, cash or accrual accounting, you can manage cash flow, ensure financial stability, and foster trust with clients.

AURA specializes in and has expertise in the marketing industry. Our executive team have extensive backgrounds working with multi-billion dollar global agencies, so we understand first-hand the challenges that marketing agencies face like cash flow unpredictability due to how agencies bill their clients, balancing full-time employees versus freelancers, properly attributing time and costs to projects and clients, and ensuring accurate revenue recognition.

By using an efficient accounting system, like accrual-based accounting, marketing and communications agencies can properly attribute revenue and expenses, accurately forecast cash flow, and ensure timely invoicing based on payment triggers, to manage cash flow effectively and accurately.

Automating these processes minimizes errors, ensures timely invoices, improves client relations, and reduces delays in payments, ultimately enhancing cash flow and operational efficiency.

AURA provides outsourced accounting services tailored to marketing agencies, offering automated financial processes, accurate forecasting, profit analysis, and internal controls to prevent fraud and ensure compliance with financial regulations.
