The W9 form is an important form, and more than likely, you’ve either had a request for this form, or you yourself may be requesting them from your vendors. This form is used to collect information about others, but knowing in advance that you need to request this information will not only save you valuable time but it will also give you the information you need to file necessary and accurate documents for your business as well. In today’s podcast episode, I am covering what the W9 form is, who you need to request it from, and what you need to do with the information once you receive it. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper or accountant, a virtual assistant or VA, or other professional; you will need this information for your business, and having an understanding about why you need this form will make an impact on you and your business.

There’s often a misconception when it comes to figuring out what you’ll be taxed on in your business. This is normally referred to as your net income. Many business owners will take a look at their business bank account and think this is the number they will use for their net income or what they will be paying taxes on, but it isn’t an accurate way to look at it, and it causes a lot of problems, especially if that bank account balance is lower than the actual net income. I’ve heard many times that business owners don’t think they will owe much for taxes because they only have a small dollar amount in their bank account. In today’s podcast episode, I cover some of the main reasons why there may be a gap between your bank balance and your net income. It may seem like your bank balance would be an accurate way to tell what you’ll be paying taxes on, but you’ll find out today what can cause this number to not match what your true profit and loss or net income amount. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper or accountant, a virtual assistant or VA, or other professional, when you are trying to figure out what you’re tax liability will be based on, I want you to make sure you are as prepared as possible for filing your taxes, and you don’t have any surprises pop up…

We need to bridge the world of business ownership or your career with your personal development. Taking the time to navigate the complexities of being a business owner or having a career while finding balance in your life is important, but when we start to add the complications of burnout, it really starts to leave you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and ready to throw in the towel. The question I want to ask you when you start feeling this way is, should you quit at this point, or should you persevere? In today’s podcast episode, I talk about how burnout affects not only your work but also your personal life. To make informed decisions about quitting anything in your life, you need to understand how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are intertwined with your results. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA; you’ll want to think about the common signs of burnout I discuss today and make an informed decision before making a decision to quit or persevere with something in your life…

When you stay on top of your bookkeeping, you’ll feel more confident and relieved knowing you have financial information you can count on to make smart business decisions. When it comes to your business finances and particularly your bookkeeping, I often hear business owners who are feeling overwhelmed and stressed because their bookkeeping has started to pile up, and they feel behind. I know this is the time of the year when most business owners realize they may have fallen behind in their bookkeeping, and they start to look for ways they can catch up before it is too late. These feelings of stress and overwhelm can creep up on you as the end of the year and tax season start to draw near. In today’s episode, I am talking about tips for staying up to date with your bookkeeping. It doesn’t matter if you are staying up to date with your bookkeeping or if you’ve fallen behind; you’ll benefit from the information in this podcast. Now is the time to really look at your financial statements and make sure you end the year exactly how you planned…or at the very least, you can end the year so that you are knowledgeable about your finances, and you can take advantage of any end of the year tax planning. You can certainly be strategic with tax deductions when you plan ahead, but if you wait until after the end of the year, it’s pretty hard to go back and make any changes. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA; I want you to know that if you have fallen behind in your bookkeeping, it’s not too late to catch up, but don’t put it off any longer. I’m here to help you stay up to date with your bookkeeping starting today…

Now that we are finding ourselves in the fourth quarter of the year, it’s time to start wrapping up this year on a high note, and I’m here to guide you through the essential steps you should be taking in this last quarter. If you are anything like me, these last three months of the year go by so quickly, and before I know it, January is here, the holidays are over, and it is back to business as usual again. I try really hard to be as prepared as I possibly can be between both my personal life and my business during this busy time of the year, which is why I am covering what you should be doing in this fourth quarter early so that you can easily prepare for the end of the year. If you want to go into the holiday season with less stress and overwhelm this year, being prepared in your business will be extremely important. Being proactive will allow you to spend that extra time with your family and friends without feeling guilty about not working in your business. In today’s episode, I am walking you through some of the main items you should be thinking about during this last quarter of the year. I’m helping you be proactive and stay on track so that you are able to not only close out your business this year with less stress but you’ll also be able to enjoy your holidays and not be stuck at the office crunching numbers. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, let’s make this the year that you are proactive in this fourth quarter so that you can truly integrate balance between your business and being at home with your family and friends this holiday season…
