Ep. 38: Making the Transition to Remote Cannabis Accounting - How an Accountant Did It with a Full-Time Job, and Landed a 6-Figure Client with One Email

Tammy L., a Cannabis accountant from North Carolina, joined us recently to talk about her experiences transitioning from a full-time job to a remote practice. She told the story of the hard work she has put into developing this next chapter in her career, and offered advice to others looking to make the same career move.

Key topics she discusses include:

What it’s like for an average accounting professional to transfer their skills to a remote accounting practice in the Cannabis/CBD niche

The process involved to land high-paying clients (and why it’s simplified with the help of DOPE CFO)

Time-management tips for working remotely and fulfilling client expectations

How a remote accounting firm in Cannabis/CBD niches can help you stay afloat ( even during hardships like this pandemic)

Advice for people interesting in making the leap towards a remote accounting job

Ask most remote accountants about their remote working lifestyle and they will tell you about the freedom they have to work anywhere with a wifi, the flexible hours they get to set, and the ability to acquire higher fees from hand-picked clients. Add a super-powered niche like Cannabis (the fastest growing industry in the country) and you have the formula to crack into a rewarding and fulfilling opportunity.

Especially with most of the country in isolation right now due to coronavirus, there’s no time like the present to learn how to start a remote Cannabis accounting business. Tammy, a DOPE CFO student, launched her remote Cannabis accounting practice last year and managed to land a 6-figure client with just one compelling email, using the DOPE CFO email script. Tune in to hear how she did it and be inspired to follow her footsteps.
