        • Client Case Study: "You Could've Bought a Lamborghini With That Money!"

          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.

          • Client Case Study: "When I'm broke, I'm happy. But, I'm absolutely miserable when I save money."

            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 Want to Have Money in Your Business? Then Do Your Bookkeeping!

              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/)

            • Is Instagram Really The Problem? Or Is It How We Use It?

              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.

                • You Get To Choose Your Experience With Money

                  Are your beliefs about money really yours? Or do those beliefs belong to someone else?


                  The two questions are what we explore in this episode.


                  Personally, I do not believe our beliefs about money are really ours. Rather, they are what we are expected to believe, based on (at least) cultural and familial standards. Just pay attention to the commercials about money, on TV. It'll become clear why you (and we) believe what you (we) believe about money.


                  The beauty about all of this is you are still in control of your beliefs and, ultimately, your experience with money. This episode will remind you of that and show you how to take command of your experience.


                  In this episode, I discuss:

                  • The differences between commercials about money and all other commercials. The difference, when seen, is hard to unsee.
                  • Common money beliefs and their impact those beliefs have had in my life. You might be able to hear your story in mine.
                  • My ideal money commercial. I'm sure if you saw the commercial I described, you'd be excited to handle your finances.
                  • Two small but very mighty tips to make your experience with money truly yours.

                  • This episode is inspired by my article, also titled: You Get to Choose Your Experience With Money

                  • You're Making Money...Yet You Don't See Any of It. Here's Why and What to Do About It.

                    So you're making money in your business, and it feels so good!  


                    The problem is, you don't see any of it. Stated another way, you have nothing to show for your efforts.


                    That's because you lack a financial system.  It's not your fault as no one taught you the importance of handling your finances, which means you have been left to figure all of it out on your own. 


                    Fortunately for you, this episode can give some direction.


                    In this episode I take my time to discuss:


                    • What is a financial system and why should you care? Why do you need it?
                    • 4 reasons you do not have money despite making it.
                    • What I see you do to manage your money - I do see your effort and intention
                    • Why what you have been doing to manage your money has not been working for you.
                    • The business and life impact of not having money because you lack a financial system.
                    • Solutions - how to have money
                    • How I can help you create your financial system so that you can keep more of your hard-earned money without sacrificing the things you love.

                    • Additional Words: A Personal Take on Recession Proofing Your Business to Prosper

                      I can relate to where many of you are today.


                      There is so much pressure to make a certain amount of money as that amount represents a level of success you crave and therefore work hard for.


                      Unfortunately, that pressure limits all the ways for you to have money.


                      Which means you also limit your ability to take care of the money you do have.


                      The thing is, those limits could put a temporary or permanent stop on your business and the life you desire and deserve to have.


                      With a possible recession on the horizon, I feel it is more important than ever to share my passion for helping you take care of your money so that you can have money regardless of what is going on in the economy.


                      Which is why I am sharing more of my story from the Great Recession and before that, the Dot.com bubble bursting.


                      ‘Recession Proof Your Business and Prosper’ was shared from an “expert’s” point of view.


                      This episode comes from a peer/colleague/friend point of view.


                      Check out this article: How to Survive a Recession and Thrive Afterward - https://hbr.org/2019/05/how-to-survive-a-recession-and-thrive-afterward

                    • Recession Proof Your Business and Prosper

                      Recession.


                      It is a word that strikes fear into many hearts.


                      Many respond to that fear by doing nothing and simply “waiting it out” until the recession ends.


                      Recession is also a word that signals opportunity and innovation.


                      Those seeking opportunity prepare their business and life for the recession and end up taking advantage of opportunities because they were ready.


                      I want to do my part to help more of you prepare for the recession (if it happens) so that you can take advantage of every opportunity available.


                      In this episode I specifically discuss:

                      - What is a recession?

                      - Symptoms of a recession

                      - Innovation born from recessions and other forms of economic downturns

                      - The financially prosperous way to recession proof your business

                      - How I can help you recession proof your business
