    Setting yourself up for failure is almost inevitable when you're trying to save money.

    Bookkeeping for Freelancers

    My guest is bookkeeper extraordinaire Katherine Pomerantz. She has amazing perspectives on money and how business owners can completely change their relationship with money. When you own your own business you are not only the CEO but you're also the HR department, the accounting department, the mail room, the office manager. It's time to outsource and ask for help when you need it. The books - meaning the record that tracks inflows and outflows of your business are the heart of the matter.  If categorizing transactions and spreadsheets don't excite you, it's time to hire help! Katherine walks us through a slew of free and inexpensive tools that can save a small business's life. We talk about how to price your art, how to maximize your time as a business writer, how to be your own bookkeeper and why creative people are better business owners.
