You’re not running an accountancy firm; you’re running a business. But most accountants and bookkeepers don’t have a business, they have chaos. You end up doing far more work than you get paid for, and you’re not valued enough by your clients. This book will take you on a journey that will challenge some of your most limiting beliefs, remove conflicting thoughts, reveal the blueprint for a successful sales system, and give you the unshakeable confidence to do what you now perceive to be hard, to make life so much easier.

Bookkeeping has been around for hundreds of years. Although keeping a record of your income and expenses may seem straightforward, bookkeeping today involves many complexities. The larger your business, the more challenging your bookkeeping tasks become. Today, we often see small business owners handling their own finances, but most owners of large companies hand over their accounts to professionals.

Did you know the typical small business owner works three to four months just to earn enough profit to pay taxes? Whether you've been in business for several decades or are breaking ground as a new entrepreneur, taxes are a significant expenditure. They must be accounted for and incorporated into your business plan from the very beginning. Failing to account for taxes when planning, budgeting, and assessing revenue goals for a business is like failing to account for the expense of your rent or mortgage.

Don't feel left out in conversations, and don't be left behind because you aren't sure what someone is talking about. Whether you're studying accounting in school, working in the accounting department of an international organization, or just reviewing financial statements as an investor, you may occasionally encounter terminology that's unfamiliar.

Publisher's Summary
How to set up, create and start your own bookkeeping business from scratch. And be successful.
This audiobook is by UK author Lisa Newton who started her own bookkeeping business for £150 in 2004. She used £100 from her overdraft and got £50 'investment' from her mum - and made it work. It is an action-packed, tip-filled, no-nonsense approach to how to start, what to do, things to look out for, pitfalls to avoid and its guidance will help you to avoid the expensive, painful time-consuming mistakes which most freelance independent bookkeepers make. There are plenty of horror stories to keep you on your toes and plenty of useful content to help you to make that transition from full time employee to full time business owner.
Amongst other things this audiobook covers:- getting started- products, price, place, promotion- dealing with clients, suppliers, subcontractors- practical exercises for you to try- and a whole lot more. This isn't theoretical or written by some lecturer. This is written by someone who has been there, done it and franchised the bookkeeping business. And won the Bookkeeping Franchisor of the Year (BKN award) in 2012 AND 2013.
What you'll soon realise (for those of you thinking of starting this kind of business), is that there are a lot of HATERS out there... and the minute you start to become successful - they'll want to find a way to tear you down. But it doesn't matter...it’s actually part of the fun and games which this audiobook also covers. Be flattered when people make an attempt to sabotage your efforts (be it a bad review or to try and get information out of your team) to 'find out how you're doing it'...it’s all happened to the author, and it is to be expected when you're causing a ripple, and doing something that works....

Not worth the money
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
To start with it sounds like she has done her own recording as there are repeated sentences and strange noises. There are few god points there but the endless sale pitch for her MLM company shouldn't be published in a book/audio you pay for.
What could Lisa Newton have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
She should have taken it to a editor as a good editor would have pointed out what should be in there and how to say it.
What didn’t you like about Lisa Newton’s performance?
Lisa comes around a bit arrogant and full of her self. God on her she is doing so well but she doesn't have to mention it numerous times. I didn't buy it to listen to her brag on about it.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I felt sorry for the people that spends money on it. There is a need for him about starting up Bookkeeping business but it had to be of a good quality.
Any additional comments?
Don't teach people time management when you are bad agency a thing yourself. People do what you do not what you say. Could got away with it if she hadn't told all these stories of a bad timekeeping

Very useful
I found this well thought out and it offers a really good grounding on the ups and downs of starting a bookkeeper business. It has given me ideas and highlighted pitfalls I havent thought of. The author is clearly knowledgeable about this industry. The only criticism is the audiobook had a few examples which are basically read out balance sheets which doesn't translate that well into an audiobook.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 45
The idea of owning a business crosses everyone's minds from time to time, and I was no different. For the majority, all that really comes along is a fleeting thought that never gets much true consideration. There are many reasons why people are afraid to take the plunge - they do not have access to substantial funds, they are afraid to lose the security that comes with a steady paycheck, they believe they will have even less time for family and other commitments, and a host of other "I just can't do it" excuses. But the biggest reason that most people never try is simple - they are terrified of failure. I was no different as I mentioned, I have gone through all the phases that most go through before getting into their own business, but being a OTR truck driver, I was gone weeks at a time. I still loved what I was doing, but I had been married now for several years, and we had two children with a third on the way. I missed my family when I was gone, and it was hard on my wife as well.
