  • Many of my messages on this podcast are geared towards young moms looking for a way to be home with their kids
for a good reason. That’s where I was when I began my own bookkeeping biz, and I truly believe it is one of the greatest tools moms can use to reclaim their time, their presence, and their freedom without sacrificing income


    But that doesn’t mean ONLY young moms can benefit from a bookkeeping business!

    Today, I’m so excited to have Mary Ellen Mansfield on to chat about her journey, which certainly differs from my usual students: Mary already had a long and exciting career before she began to pursue bookkeeping, but when the time came that she wanted more freedom + the option to explore working for herself, bookkeeping became her clear next step!

  • Some time ago, I was interviewed by Tara Armstrong, and I shared a few things with her that still hold true today


    Firstly, I shared the story of how I came to realize I needed to exit corporate, despite meeting every mark of success I’d ever set for myself
and how I made the seemingly impossible happen.

    And secondly, I gave her a list of the traits you need in order to become a successful bookkeeper
and one thing you DON’T need that many people think you do.

  • We’re back with more Profits + Prosecco highlights
and what better story to share than a member of the corporate Quitter’s Club?

    Lisa Kinser came on some time ago to share her experience leaving her corporate job, discovering BABs, and starting her own bookkeeping business. These days, she’s not only running her business—she also hosts The Simply Booked Podcast!

    Lisa’s journey is an inspiring one
and one I believe will show you just what’s possible when you invest in yourself and realize just how much potential you have outside of corporate life. Don’t take my word for it—let me just pass her the mic

  • We’re working incredibly hard behind the scenes on the BABs revamp
but before we get to its launch, I want to remind everyone exactly what BABs can do for you.

    Now, I’ll own this: I’m super biased when it comes to BABs. This program is my baby. I love it dearly. So after all this time listening to me brag about how great it is (because it is, it’s mind-blowing) you might be feeling a bit skeptical. After all, just how transformative can ONE program really be?

    So I thought I’d let you hear from some people who know exactly what it’s like to be in your shoes, and whether BABs is actually worth the investment for you: actual BABs students!

  • Welcome back to the Best of Profits & Prosecco series!

    Today, as we’re heading towards a new era of BABs—and a new era of brand-new bookkeepers—I think it’s a good idea to revisit an important topic
setting realistic expectations.

    As I always say, bookkeeping can be simple. Bookkeeping can be scalable. Bookkeeping can support your life while making room for you to actually live that life


    But that doesn’t happen overnight.

    I don’t want you all to think that bookkeeping is some kind of get-rich-quick scheme. My business is everything I ever wanted it to be, but that didn’t happen overnight! I had to put in the work. I had to build it intentionally over time—a lot of time.

    It took a while to see the return on investment. But now that it’s here, it’s not only worth the wait
it is a recurring form of ROI. Meaning, it never stops giving.

    Here’s how it happened for me

  • If you’re not the biggest fan of planning, then hey
we have something in common!

    Planning does not come easily to me, especially as a mom of three. How am I supposed to plan out my whole YEAR when I don’t even know what the next ten minutes are going to look like?

    Well, I have good news: there is a way. And today, my friend Megan Sumrell—a time management and planning expert—is here to share all about annual planning, why you need to (and can!) make an annual plan whether you enjoy planning or not, and how it will actually save you time, mental space, and energy throughout the year.

    Megan’s method is perfect for planners and non-planners alike, and it will transform the way you pursue and plan out your goals! Let’s walk through it together.

  • Hello again, friends!

    By now, some of you might be wondering
when exactly IS the BABs revamp going live?

    And the answer is
drumroll please


    I have no idea.

    I know, I know–I can hear the collective groaning from here! I am thrilled by how many of you are SO excited for this revamp, and I promise you it will be worth the wait
especially because I’ve chosen not to rush.

    I could push to get this revamp out faster. I could neglect other things to focus on reviewing and tweaking BABs. I could push myself to work on it even when I’m not at my best


    But I won’t. For several reasons, all of which I’m sharing with you today.

    And don’t worry—just because I’m taking my time doesn’t mean we haven’t made progress. So if you’re chomping at the bit for an update, you can rest easy—I’m giving you all the news in this special episode of Profits + Prosecco!

  • Raise your hand if you’ve always been a perfectionist.

    Now raise your hand if you’ve always considered that a positive quality.

    (Spoiler alert: it’s not.)

    Perfectionism is actually a carefully crafted disguise for one thing: fear. And when you’re starting a business, perfectionism has no place in the process.

    I didn’t do one thing perfectly in my business
and I’m so incredibly proud of how it turned out today. So if you’re a perfectionist, brace yourself
I’m going to tell you honestly why it’s time to kick that quality to the curb.

  • Shopping for a bookkeeping course is ten times harder than back-to-school shopping. And having just done that for three kids, trust me
I know what I’m talking about.

    When you’re shopping around for the best bookkeeping course for you and your needs, a simple Google search isn’t going to cut it. There’s so many options out there, all of them teach different things and are taught by different people
and none of them are one-size-fits-all.

    So today, I want to give you a “shopping list” to make things just a little easier. Let’s go over everything you need to look for in a bookkeeping course!

  • When you break it down to the essentials, there are only two things you need in order to start a bookkeeping business:

    The technical skills to do the work, and

    The ability to turn those skills into a business.

    The second, most people understand. But the first
that one can be trickier.

    A lot of people believe bookkeeping is one of those “fake-it-til-you-make-it” skills. But if there’s one thing you take away from this podcast, let it be this


    It is not.

    You cannot fake your way through bookkeeping
not ethically, anyway. And if you are running your bookkeeping business while doing a bad job of the books, i can sincerely, honestly tell you that I hope you get caught quickly.

    You can truly hurt people if you try to do this work without a good grasp on your skills
which is why I created something to make sure bookkeepers get the help they need to make sure those skills are on point. Let’s talk about BABs.

  • Once upon a time, I was a bookkeeping biz beginner too


    And while I’m incredibly proud of the way I built my business, I did make a misstep or two along the way.

    (Actually, I made six.)

    I don’t have any regrets, but there are six things that would have smoothed out + sped up the process if I’d done them differently. And if I’m going to teach you how to start your own bookkeeping business
why wouldn’t I teach you how to do it smoother and faster?

    So without further ado, here are six things to AVOID doing when you start your bookkeeping business!

  • If you’ve been wondering, “What is the best time to start a bookkeeping business, anyway?” then I have some bad news:

    You’ve already missed it.

    And if you don’t know what that time is, I have much better news for you: I’m going to tell you in today’s Best of Profits + Prosecco trip down memory lane.

  • This week, we’re going to kick off a mini-series revisiting the best of the best on the Profits + Prosecco podcast
starting with the ultimate guide to starting a bookkeeping business!

    Starting a business is no easy feat. There are a lot of steps you need to knock out—some you probably don’t even know about. It would be so much easier if someone who’s done it before would just hand you a nice, simple to-do list you could check off step by step, right?

    Well, I happen to agree. So without further ado, here is a list of nineteen things you need to have or do before starting your bookkeeping business
including some things I DIDN’T do that I WISH I’d done when I was first starting out.

    Hindsight is 20/20. So if you hit all nineteen points on this list, good news
you’ll already be starting off in a better place than I did!

  • If you’re on the fence about joining LIBBY, or wondering what exactly it has to offer
you’ve come to the right place. I’m so thrilled to welcome Kristina Hind, current LIBBY member, onto the podcast today!

    Kristina is a licensed CPA and graduated with a Master’s in Taxation. She started her career by following the path that was suggested in college, but felt unfulfilled and just wanted more. (Sound familiar?) So at the end of 2020, she decided to quit her 9-5. Some time later, she discovered this podcast, realized how similar our stories were, and pivoted to bookkeeping! After going through BABs, she moved on to LIBBY and remains an active member.

    Not everyone is able to attend the live components of LIBBY. Some people use certain components more than others. But no matter how you utilize LIBBY, every single facet of the program is packed with value
and Kristina’s journey is a great example!

  • I am so excited to welcome Lis Lee—former BABs student, former corporate accountant, and current Tech Talks subscriber—onto the podcast to chat about the value of Tech Talks!

    Even experienced bookkeepers have questions and uncertainties pop up in their work. Every client is different, and even though many processes are mostly repeatable, unique situations will come up. And when you encounter them, having a space where you can go to ask questions is absolutely game-changing.

    Lis is living proof that Tech Talks can save you time, stress, and uncertainty. So if you’ve been considering signing up, but you’re still on the fence
this might just be the push you need!

  • Today’s episode is going to be a little different.

    It’s short and sweet
but you’re going to want to bookmark it. Because it’s designed for you to come back and listen to as many times as needed.

    This is for you: the aspiring bookkeeper with ambitions to start your own business, but you’re unsure if you can tackle the complexities of being an entrepreneur. The stay-at-home mom looking for a way to make money and be financially stable without sacrificing her time with her kids who’s afraid that starting a business might steal even MORE of her time. The corporate escapee desperate to make an escape plan who doesn’t believe they can make enough money to replace their current salary.

    Whoever you are, if you’re listening to this
this pep talk is specifically for you. You were meant to hear it. And I want you to listen to it as many times as you need to before it finally gives you the kick in the pants you need to step into what you are meant to do.

  • So, we’ve gone over different types of failure that we worry about as aspiring bookkeepers, the worst-case scenario outcome of these fears

  • “I want to start my own business, but
what if I fail?”

    That’s a very good question. What if you DO fail?

    The fear of failure is totally normal
and in many cases, it can be valid! Failure does happen. I’m not going to sit here and tell you that you absolutely won’t fail when you try something new


    But I am going to tell you that failure isn’t the end.

    There is an “after” we often forget about when it comes to failure. We can’t see past all of our fears to realize that if we fail, there are things we can do to repair that.

    So how do we take away the power behind these fears? Let me show you how I do it

  • To my fellow stay-at-home moms:

    If you’re in need of additional income, but absolutely can’t fathom the idea of going back to (or entering) corporate life


    I understand, because I was there once, too.

    Once I’d tasted the stay-at-home mom life, I knew for a fact it would be impossible to go back to corporate life while still being the kind of mom I wanted to be
but I also knew I was going to need a source of income before long.

    So I poured myself wholeheartedly into growing my bookkeeping business
and after several years, I am more convinced than ever that bookkeeping is the absolute BEST business for stay-at-home moms to have.

    And once you see my list of incredible things a bookkeeping business can give you, you’ll be convinced, too.
