Shopping for a bookkeeping course is ten times harder than back-to-school shopping. And having just done that for three kids, trust meâŠI know what Iâm talking about.
When youâre shopping around for the best bookkeeping course for you and your needs, a simple Google search isnât going to cut it. Thereâs so many options out there, all of them teach different things and are taught by different peopleâŠand none of them are one-size-fits-all.
So today, I want to give you a âshopping listâ to make things just a little easier. Letâs 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 firstâŠthat one can be trickier.
A lot of people believe bookkeeping is one of those âfake-it-til-you-make-itâ skills. But if thereâs one thing you take away from this podcast, let it be thisâŠ
It is not.
You cannot fake your way through bookkeepingâŠnot 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 skillsâŠwhich is why I created something to make sure bookkeepers get the help they need to make sure those skills are on point. Letâs talk about BABs.

Once upon a time, I was a bookkeeping biz beginner tooâŠ
And while Iâm incredibly proud of the way I built my business, I did make a misstep or two along the way.
(Actually, I made six.)
I donât have any regrets, but there are six things that would have smoothed out + sped up the process if Iâd done them differently. And if Iâm going to teach you how to start your own bookkeeping businessâŠwhy wouldnât 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!

This week, weâre going to kick off a mini-series revisiting the best of the best on the Profits + Prosecco podcastâŠstarting 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 outâsome you probably donât even know about. It would be so much easier if someone whoâs 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 businessâŠincluding some things I DIDNâT do that I WISH Iâd done when I was first starting out.
Hindsight is 20/20. So if you hit all nineteen points on this list, good newsâŠyouâll already be starting off in a better place than I did!

If youâre on the fence about joining LIBBY, or wondering what exactly it has to offerâŠyouâve come to the right place. Iâm so thrilled to welcome Kristina Hind, current LIBBY member, onto the podcast today!
Kristina is a licensed CPA and graduated with a Masterâs 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 valueâŠand Kristinaâs journey is a great example!

Todayâs episode is going to be a little different.
Itâs short and sweetâŠbut youâre going to want to bookmark it. Because itâs 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 youâre 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 whoâs afraid that starting a business might steal even MORE of her time. The corporate escapee desperate to make an escape plan who doesnât believe they can make enough money to replace their current salary.
Whoever you are, if youâre listening to thisâŠthis 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, weâve gone over different types of failure that we worry about as aspiring bookkeepers, the worst-case scenario outcome of these fearsâŠand what comes next for us.
But as we went over the âNow what?â solutions to the worst-case scenarios, I couldnât help but notice something interesting: most of the solutions we identified can be achieved through something available in my product suite!
If you havenât listened to the last episode yet, go back and start there. Then come back to hear which of my programs will be the best fit for you depending on which fear or failure youâre struggling with!

âI want to start my own business, butâŠwhat if I fail?â
Thatâs a very good question. What if you DO fail?
The fear of failure is totally normalâŠand in many cases, it can be valid! Failure does happen. Iâm not going to sit here and tell you that you absolutely wonât fail when you try something newâŠ
But I am going to tell you that failure isnât the end.
There is an âafterâ we often forget about when it comes to failure. We canât 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 itâŠ

To my fellow stay-at-home moms:
If youâre in need of additional income, but absolutely canât fathom the idea of going back to (or entering) corporate lifeâŠ
I understand, because I was there once, too.
Once Iâd 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 beâŠbut I also knew I was going to need a source of income before long.
So I poured myself wholeheartedly into growing my bookkeeping businessâŠand 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, youâll be convinced, too.

My number one piece of advice for those thinking about starting or scaling their bookkeeping business:
Do. Not. Wait.
There is no perfect time coming, no matter how long you wait for it. You know how I know?
Because Iâm living in what many, many people would probably consider the âbestâ time to start a business.
All my kids are in school. Iâm at home. I have five hours away from them every day. This is the first time since I started having kids that I havenât had one of them home with me all the timeâŠ
And itâs still hard.
Itâs hard to do the laundry. Itâs hard to do the dishes. Itâs hard to fit in a walk. Itâs hard to work on the projects I have on my plate.
The challenges havenât gone awayâŠtheyâre just different. And if you donât believe me, thatâs okay: Iâm also here today to give you the rundown of what the school year looked like for me as a bookkeeper and a mom. And I promise you, itâs going to prove exactly why there is no âperfectâ time coming.
But that doesnât mean you canât begin.

Bookkeeping can sometimes be a discouraging field to work inâŠespecially when you see large corporations offering âbookkeepingâ (itâs not the same thing) for much cheaper than we as individuals can offer it.
My good friend Misa Bacon and I were discussing this via DM, but itâs such an important conversation to have that I wanted to bring it onto the podcast!
If you arenât familiar with Misa, she is the Founder and CEO of Perfectly Kept BooksÂź and your go-to for bookkeeping and QuickBooks Pro. She empowers women entrepreneurs to conquer their financial anxieties, and sheâs here today to give you some powerful encouragement.
It can be easy to feel undervalued or underappreciated. But as my fantastic guest said this week, there is actually a massive shortage of good bookkeepers out thereâŠand a huge demand for good bookkeeping.
You are needed. And the people who need you WILL find youâŠeven if you feel like you canât compete.

Some of you may have heard me talk about CFO services in the past, and you might be wonderingâŠ
âWhat is a CFO, exactly? What do they do?â
Or, if youâre a bookkeeper familiar with what a CFO is, you might be wondering how YOU could begin offering those services, too.
Whether youâre an aspiring CFO yourself or a total newbie, this weekâs episode is going to open up a world of possibilities for youâŠbecause Iâve invited Adam Lean, co-founder of The CFO Project, to come on and chat with me about all things CFO advising!
Adam Lean is a former accountant turned two-time entrepreneur who has built, scaled, and sold two businesses. He currently runs The CFO Project: a training company that trains financial professionals on how to offer an outsourced CFO and business advisory service. (And yes, that includes bookkeepers!)

If thereâs one thing I want you to take away from todayâs episode, itâs this:
Your worth is not your work.
Iâve talked before about how, as accountants, we tend to glorify hard work. We compete to see who can work the most hours, who can miss the most school events, who can eat the most lunches at their desksâŠ
All because we think working hard is what makes us worthy.
Well, Iâve finally unlearned this definition of self-worthâŠbut it wasnât easy, and it took a long time. So today, I want to help you get started on your own deprogramming with the return of my good friend to the podcast: ChatGPT.
Weâre going to go over WHY youâve attached your self-worth so inextricably to your work, how to shift that in a healthy way, and Iâm going to give you a couple journal prompts to get you started.
Itâs not an easy change, but it is a necessary oneâŠand it starts today.

If youâve been listening to me talk about Kajabi, have been wanting to get it, but itâs just too expensive to justify when youâre first starting outâŠ
I have some amazing news.
Kajabi has just come out with a brand-new tier called the âKickstarterâ planâŠfor only $69 a month.
Iâm on the Basic plan, which costs $149 per monthâand for me, that plan is worth its weight in gold. So for them to be offering a new tier just below it at $69 is insanely cheap.
Almost too cheap.
They havenât said this plan is only sticking around for a short while, but I canât help but think it might not be long before it disappears. So if youâve been considering Kajabi, I strongly advise you take that leap NOWâŠbecause even if this plan does go away, youâll get grandfathered in as long as you remain subscribed to it.
This is one of the most exciting opportunities Iâve seen for new business owners trying to build their website and automations in some time. In fact, Iâm so excited that if you use my link to sign up for your trial of this plan, Iâll throw in some pretty amazing bonusesâŠ

By now, we all know what I believe about time: it is your most valuable resource. And, in a lot of ways, the saying âtime is moneyâ is LITERALLY true. So when you save time, you save moneyâŠ
But youâve got your hands full, and there arenât any balls you can drop. So how can you increase your profits by saving your time?
The answer is automationâand the tool is Kajabi.
Iâve raved about Kajabi before, and for good reasonâit is THE ultimate software for building out your website and creating automations to free yourself up from tasks you really donât need to be doing manually.
If you arenât familiar with the platformâor you looked into it, but found all the options overwhelmingâtodayâs episode is for you. My wonderful friend Katie Fleming is here to ask me about all things automation using the Kajabi platform, and I am so excited to share all the ways this software has made it possible for my business to function the way it does today.

It has been a minute since I had a GUEST on the podcastâŠ
Itâs time to rectify that, donât you think?
I am so thrilled to welcome Christy Steinman, CPA and LIBBY student, onto the podcast to share about her journey from corporate to quitterâs club to full-time bookkeeping business!
Christyâs path started out much like mineâŠcollege, accounting, etc. But some of the twists and turns her journey took afterward are TRULY fascinating, and I canât wait for you all to hear just how many different paths can bring you to the bookkeeping biz of your dreams.
This might not be the easiest road, but it is absolutely possibleâŠand it is a lot easier with the LIBBY resources and community to guide you along the way.

For most of 2024, Iâve been sharing about Become a Bookkeeper, my program set up to help teach people the practical skills of bookkeeping.
But some of you might be wonderingâŠwhat do you do if you already HAVE those skillsâyou just donât know how to turn them into a business?
Enter Life By The Books, aka LIBBY!
LIBBY is the program I created for people who are already skilled in bookkeeping, but need some support to take those skills and build a sustainable, life-honoring business on top of them. Inside LIBBY, youâll find a framework to follow, a community to turn to for support and answers, and so much moreâŠ
And to give you a sneak peek into what being part of LIBBY is like, Iâm sharing a special treat with you on todayâs episode: a message I sent out exclusively to the Life By The Books community, never-before-heard outside that program!
