As someone who has never even considered a career in bookkeeping, this actually sounds like something I might be really good at. I’m looking for stay at-home options, as my husband and I consider growing our family. This seems like such a great option that would allow me to stay home, bring in a good income, and do something that I could actually enjoy. Thanks for the cheesy metaphor, too. 😉 I love it! Can’t wait to check out your other videos as I consider this exciting new option!

Love your videos. I am not a bookkeeper, but I do some booking keeping for my fiancé trucking business, apart from been the dispatch manager. My golds are to learn more about bookkeeping noting that I Iove to create templates in excel or google sheets and work with formulas. After viewing some of your videos I have decided this is my starting point to grasp and further my knowledge of bookkeeping and to build my client list. Best Regards

It is definitely okay if an individual inverts number sometimes (for example, as is often seen in dyslexia). Those individuals need to double check their work similar to the big picture thinkers. People who invert numbers sometimes are not necessarily excluded from book-keeping work.

@Stephen Gallagher yes with one account you can have more than one client. Morgan also have a video on QuickBooks Proadvisor.
@FinePointsBookkeeping4 жыл бұрын
Yes, you can have many clients under your one account--but with QBO you need to pay for each client (or have the client pay). With desktop, you just buy the program once and can do the books for many clients. Even with that cost difference, I still like QBO better now. :)

How i would manager the accounting software for each clients? For exemple, in QuickBooks is possible i have diferente accounts for each single client or i need to ask each client to create a QuickBooks account thus i would access them accounts. could you help me please???

Good question. Sign up for QuickBooks Online Accountant ... it has your own books for your business, and then there is a dropdown where you can find each of your clients. It's all within your one login. It's free for your business, but you start paying per client you have (or the client can pay for their subscription).
