The (Not Boring) Boring Small Business Bookkeeping and Accounting Podcast episodes

July 20, 2023 Bookkeeping Relationships: S2E3
Early on in his career, our resident bookkeeping mensch, Paul Rosenblum, realized that he was not a traditional bookkeeper. Although he was attracted to the orderly nature of bookkeeping, he was also a person who didn’t think highly of customer service in general. So it made sense for him to spend time on tasks that let him build client relationships in a very Paul- like way. In this podcast episode he shares the non-traditional business practices that have helped his business thrive AND also let him feel good about himself as a human. Building these connections have fostered client loyalty, have set him apart from the competition, and ultimately have led to long-term success in the customer service-driven field of bookkeeping. And he’s never had a problem sleeping at night, except during tax season when there aren't enough hours in the day!

July 06, 2023 Computerized Bookkeeping Errors: S2E2
Paul has a burning desire to share the 5 most common errors made in computerized bookkeeping in general (not just in QuickBooks). Why? Because while computerized bookkeeping continues to grow in popularity, software updates within these programs don't always happen as quickly (if ever!) Paul’s pet peeves, err– I mean common errors include mishandling deposits from downloaded transactions, misaligned chart of accounts, and more. Avoiding these errors is crucial for maintaining accurate financial records. So have a listen so that you know how to use your bookkeeping software correctly. Who knows, you might even impress your bookkeeper with your new skills after making these adjustments.
