Factors to consider when deciding on an expense category for business development
There are a few factors that should be considered when deciding which expense category is most appropriate for business development activities:
- The type of activity being undertaken - is it marketing, sales, product development, or something else?
- The purpose of the activity - is it to generate new leads, convert leads into customers, or something else?
- The cost of the activity - is it a one-time expense or will it be ongoing?
Business development activities can fall under multiple expense categories, and the most appropriate category will depend on the specific activities being undertaken and the goals of the business. Careful consideration should be given to ensure that expenses are properly categorized for accurate financial reporting.
