September 21, 2024Episode 36 Cassandra Scott - Finding her Tribe Cassandra Scott has been a constant in the Australian Bookkeeping scene for over 20 years and is now recognised as a leading voice when it comes to so many things impacting on the Bookkeeping Industry in Australia. Cassandra has in many ways, had to fight her natural instincts to shy away and just go along quietly over the years and yet, her vast experiences and intensive views on how important Bookkeepers are in Australia have in time, become to significant to hold back. And it is in this episode that Cassandra shares so many insights as to why Bookkeepers and Bookkeeping need to keep growing and evolving for the very existence of the profession she so passionately loves. The word Professional is examined at length in this episode, as well as dealing with a toxic work environment, the importance of systems and a particular app that changed everything for her in her practice, as well as why an exit strategy doesn't have to mean leaving and walking away. So many insights and high impact gains to be made from hearing Cassandra and her approach to bookkeeping and to life more generally in this episode.

...more July 27, 2024Episode 35 Krystal Merrett - Farming the Books Most Bookkeepers face challenges on a daily basis and it is the resilience of Bookkeepers that shines through regularly across Australia, whether that be in the large cities or towns, or way out in the bush. Our guest in this episode, Krystal Merrett, is one of those Bookkeepers who's challenges each day can vary in so many ways, mostly due to the extreme remoteness of her location. Imagine having to do a clients Payroll whilst sitting in the farm ute on the top of a ridge. Or having to travel nearly an hour, just to find a shop that has some paper for the printer. Krystal is one of a new generation of Bookkeepers in Australia who juggles the needs of businesses in her regional district, whilst also assisting her husband and two teenage kids in their own business to run the farm. Based in far western Victoria, Krystal shares the often struggles of being a regional Bookkeeper, but also the highlights of farm life and being part of a small community. A key message in this episode is the journey Krystal and her husband have been on with dealing with succession on the farm and how that can relate to anyone hoping to create longevity and legacy in a business. Another great listen - enjoy.Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Gaining an appreciation for Small Business at a very young age, assisting her Grandpa amongst the dirt and grease of a mechanics shop, Nicole almost from the start knew that her calling would come eventually in her own time to Small Business ... she just didn't know where and when. A chance trip overseas, followed by some dark times facing a form of Domestic violence, finally saw Nicole emerge stronger and more convicted than ever to create her own pathways in the form of a Bookkeeping practice. The highs, the lows and the uncertainties of Nicole's journey, come through strongly in her story to where she finds herself today. Innovation through tech, drives Nicole and her Bookkeeping business currently and we get to examine this, in this wonderful episode. Don't miss having a listen.

Renae Petersen originally from Taranaki in New Zealand and now based in Melbourne Australia, is not one of those people. In fact, Renae was thinking Bookkeeping from a lot younger age than most and made sure that at every turn over the past few decades, she has been working towards her dream of creating and owning, her own Bookkeeping business. It is how Renae achieved that and the adversity she had to go through as part of that journey, that makes this episode of Herat of the Bookkeeper, a very special listen and one that many will find inspiring.Hosted on Acast.

...more September 22, 2023Episode 27 Debbie Roberts - Absolute Pure Bookkeeping Debbie Roberts is a Bookkeeper, an author, an entrepreneur and in many peoples eyes, simply an inspiration in the Bookkeeping Community of Australia. Debbie has ridden the high points and the low points of Bookkeeping for more than 3 decades and in this episode, we get to hear that journey with so many lessons learned and takeaways. The inspiration of Debbies Mum shines through, who almost single handedly brought her up and 5 other siblings of Debbies, after the sad and very early loss of her Dad. Debbie describes her early attempts to build a Bookkeeping practice and how that spiralled out of control and so very nearly ran herself into the ground. And then a chance connection with one of the biggest selling authors of the 20th Century, changed everything and turned "working in your business" into "working on your business" and a whole new approach to living life and getting immense happiness from it as well as new found joy in doing Bookkeeping. We delve into how a brush with a significant health scare, made her very aware that, just when Debbie thought she had done all she needed to do in Bookkeeping, revelation came that she in fact has a whole lot more to give and that the challenges so many Bookkeepers have on a daily basis in Australia, are the same challenges that continue to drive her to help those who reach out and the chance to unlock ways to overcome and achieve amazing things. A wonderful story ... a wonderful listen.
