Do you want to trust your businesses bookkeeping to Amateurs?
To be honest, while forming my company, I was surprised to hear things being said to new people interested in this career field.
- 1. No degree Required.
- 2. Take a 40-hour bookkeeping course
- 3. Learn some accounting software. ‘QuickBooks’
- 4. Bookkeeping is referred to as a ‘side hustle‘.
- 5. Due to no degree, not allowed to give financial advice.
Bookkeeping is referred to as ‘A Side Hustle’, something that stay-at-home moms’ can do with little or no education required. A ‘Side Hustle’ really sounds Amateur in my opinion. I believe you get what you pay for.
As a client with your own company/business, you have put much time and effort into making it a successful venture. It takes a lot of hard work; it becomes your lifeblood. Do you want to trust your bookkeeping to a ‘Side Hustle?’ Before accepting clients, I worked very hard to ensure my service is a quality product that only requires a good sales pitch to sell.
Starting my own virtual bookkeeping business was not a small goal and has required much dedication and hard work to open a bookkeeping business, polar opposite from being ‘A Side Hustle”.
Being a Professional
This goal to open a work-from-home virtual bookkeeping business began in 2018. Bookkeeping is considered entry-level position in the accounting field. The goal to open a business started with this thought, “To run my own business, need to make myself an expert first, to deliver a quality product.
This took approximately 3 years of hard work to open ‘Stingray’s Bookkeeping LLC’.
