    209. If I've got very minimal business expenses, should I be separating business from personal in a tool for my records?

    Welcome to the Virtual Cafe where coffee meets money. This week we are chatting about The Money Barista coffee mug and how not to be 'pedestrian' or 'basic' with our beans. The discussion gets spicy when speaking of the perfect world vs when getting started it may look very different.
    When to separate the beansWhat to keep that are the most important thingsHow things can change over time and to know when to separate recordsMake sure what is required in your areaThe right advice from certain professionals is importantNot getting overwhelmed or sucked down the technical rabbit holeWhich tool can make things easier (or much harder)
    Combining your business and personal finances in accounting software may not be the right fit so knowing when it's time has some clues. Everything in business is not the same, there are different shapes and sizes. Numbers matter in whichever industry you are in and they help you understand your business finances.
    We would love you to tune in for this episode and future discussions in the Virtual Cafe, where you too can get in control of your flipping digits.
    We hope you enjoy this experience 🙏

    207. Who Do I Call When I Need To Ask An Embarrassing Money Question?

    207. Who Do I Call When I Need To Ask An Embarrassing Money Question?

    We all have phone-a-friend moments in business especially when it comes to money and finances. It can be compelling to go to a search engine when it's an embarrassing question, but be careful when searching online because it can be a slippery slope. The so-called answers online can be overwhelming and we can get off answers. Asking someone you know has experience and sincerely wants to help you is a much better choice, but how do you know who to ask?
    Kim called Kerry while live on a podcast to see if she knew the answer to a game question she was being askedrelationships that we can have for a 'phone-a-friend' callwho to ask questions that are private and confidentialsearching online can be a slippery slopeKerry gets all kinds of business questions and keeps them anonymous when she answers on the podcast
    Money basics are the same for most people and we understand how hard it can be. If you have questions and don't know who to ask, send them to Kerry and she will do her best to answer them on the podcast without any judgment and she keeps who asked confidential. Don't let those embarrassing questions keep you from getting in control of your BF's aka business finances.
    Send questions to Kerry@kerryzarb.com and remember Kerry loves colorful language so ask away with swear words included. Message her on the socials to connect with her too.

    206. How Do I Overcome Decision Fatigue With My Money?

    206. How Do I Overcome Decision Fatigue With My Money?

    Decisions are fire-hosing us every single day. Part of the decision fatigue is having the right systems in place that are going to work for you. When we think about sitting down and working on our Business Finances, we need to make that decision first. When am I going to do it, where am I going to do it, what day, what time, am I going to get interrupted? Join Kerry and Kim in the Virtual Cafe and prepare to make fewer decisions.
    Decision fatigue is realA recipe for our Business FinancesHaving the Digital Shoebox as a tool
    There are tiny little things that we can do as we are running at a fast pace to help ourselves, if we know ahead of time and we have all our things gathered up, then we can make the decisions on the digits instead of all the things.
    We would love you to tune in for this episode and future discussions in the virtual cafe, where you too can get in control of your business finances.
    We hope you enjoy this experience 🙏
