Why would I ever say something like that to a client?



Answer: Bookkeeping



And not to worry...the statement was VERY well received!



However, the bookkeeping revealed something that went beyond dollars and cents. It made it possible to reveal the real problem that needed to be solved.



I reveal that real problem and how solving it greatly benefited the client in this episode.



I also discuss:




How and why I was introduced to the client
What the bookkeeping revealed and the importance of sharing that information with the client
How the client benefitted from the information obtained from the bookkeeping



Please remember, this episode is based on my experiences with clients, therefore is for discussion purposes only and not to be taken as advice.

The episode before this, I shared a few reasons why I believe you should do your bookkeeping, especially as a business owner.

 

All of those reasons were about keeping more of your hard earned money, and if done my way, you keep without sacrificing the things you love.



This episode I will share how bookkeeping helped my client have money. You'll ALSO learn what she has able to do because she has money.



Here's what else you'll learn, in the episode:


What I discovered when I assisted my client with her bookkeeping
Why my client made this confession: "When I'm broke, I'm happy. But, I'm absolutely miserable when I save money."
The negative impact common money advice has had in her life
Bookkeeping solutions to resolve her financial troubles
What she has been able to do since she started having more money in her bank accounts

Do you believe bookkeeping is low level work?



Do you look at bookkeeping as something that cost you money and time?



Do you believe bookkeeping is only for tax purposes?



Then this episode is for you.



I have looked at a lot of financial statements and bank accounts in my nearly 2 decades of working as an accountant. In that time I have seen a clear difference between those that have money and those that struggle with money.



That difference is bookkeeping.



To be specific, those that have money do their bookkeeping.



Those that do not do their bookkeeping, well…tend to struggle with money and always wonder where their money goes.



In this episode I share the benefits of doing your bookkeeping.



#1 benefit: Keep more of your hard-earned money without sacrificing the things you love.



Here is the entrepreneur that credits good bookkeeping for being the reason she scaled her business from $300k per year to 8-figures in revenue. Check her out! (https://thelifecoachschool.com/entrepreneurialbookkeeping/)

Did you know Instagram as well as other forms of social media impacts and influences your finances?



Early 2022, and especially after another algorithm change, my frustration with Instagram was high. It is a tool that intended to support and enhance my business, yet, I continued to experience the opposite. In fact, it felt like Instagram was taking so much more than it was giving, leading me to question whether it is worth it  to continue being on that platform. That question of worth also include the impact and influence of Instagram on my finances. Should my efforts be directed elsewhere?



I realized many of you have also been questioning where you stand with Instagram as well as the other socials. Which led me to ask this question:



Is it Instagram? Or is it the way we use it?



In this episode I explore that question and the way we use Instagram (and other socials) which impact and influence our finances. 



Other topics include:


Sharing, passionately, what I stand for and how the pressures of the platform interferes with that.
How my colleagues navigate and succumb to the pressures to be relevant on social media.
I explain the difference between an influencer and a business owner - I needed to remind myself to stay in my lane
I then talk about why I like Instagram.



Here’s a twist: Did you know Instagram is responding to how WE use the platform?


I discuss how we, as users, have the power to influence Instagram
Finally, I share what I, as a business owner will navigate Instagram and other forms of social media, going forward.
