"I'm not a numbers person—can I still become a bookkeeper?"

The answer is…it depends.

When you say you're not a numbers person, is it just a way for you to say you're bad at math? And when you think of math, what are you picturing?

Trigonometry and calculus? Those aren't showing up in bookkeeping. I'll tell you that for free.

In fact…90% of bookkeeping is just addition and subtraction. Maybe a little multiplication and division when things get complicated.

However, you do need to be able to apply these concepts in the right way. You need to be able to plug numbers into formulas. You need to understand basic accounting. In that way, you do need to be a "numbers person."

But being a numbers person is more teachable than you might think…and I'm just the person to teach you. Let me tell you about the program I created for exactly this purpose.
