People start side hustles for many reasons, but one of the top reasons is so they can make additional money. With the cost of living rising, many people are looking for additional ways to make ends meet since the income they are getting from their job isn’t meeting all of their needs. On average, one in three people has a side hustle. In today’s podcast episode, I’ll walk you through what side hustles are all about, why they are growing in popularity, and if a side hustle is right for you. If you’ve been thinking about starting a side hustle or have already dipped your toes in the side hustle world, listen in and make sure you are aware of how you can make money with a side hustle.

Most business owners typically do their own bookkeeping when they first start their business, but a question I often receive is when should I be getting help with my bookkeeping. The help that a business owner can get from a bookkeeper, accountant, CPA, or tax preparer can vary, and the level of expertise and amount of time required varies as well. The main point here is that all business owners need to understand their business finances, whether they are doing their own bookkeeping or if they have someone else generating their financial statements for them. In today’s podcast episode, I walk through many of the main reasons business owners may want to consider getting help with their bookkeeping, as well as signs it may be time for you to start asking for help with your bookkeeping. If you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, side hustler, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, you want to make sure that you have your business financial information ready to prepare your tax return, but you also want to make sure that you are utilizing this information throughout the year so that you can make smart business decisions. Running your business in the dark without the right financial information will only hinder the success and the potential that you could see in your business. Listen in and see if or when you should be asking for help with your business finances. These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

Reconciling your accounts will make sure you have all your transactions accounted for each month, but when you have transactions that have not cleared the bank, you need to make sure you are taking care of these as well so that you don’t have incorrect data in your financial statements. It’s important to clean these items up in a timely manner so that you are not over or understating your net income for a specific period of time, and taking the time to clean these items up prior to the end of the year will help you prepare for your upcoming tax return. In today’s podcast episode, I cover what an uncleared transaction is as well as how to decide what you need to do to clean it up so that your financials are correct, especially if you find an uncleared transaction from a prior period that has already been closed or your tax return has already been filed. Some of these situations can get tricky, but it doesn’t matter if you are 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, it is important to make sure you are following these processes to ensure your financial statements correctly reflect your income. These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…

Understanding and having control of your personal finances is extremely important when you have a business. There may be instances in your business when you need to inject personal funds into the business if you are having issues with your business meeting its cash flow and financial needs. You need to know if you can indeed afford to put these funds into the business without negatively impacting your personal finances. On the flip side, you also need to know how much money you need the business to pay you so that you can continue to meet all your personal financial obligations. When you have a clear understanding of your personal finances as well as how your personal finances may impact your business, you can be proactive with your finances so that you can benefit your business in the best ways possible.

These tips are essential whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances; or doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document…
