I’ve been watching your videos for several weeks and they encourage me a lot to start my own bookkeeping business and work remotely since I’m from Mexico. Thank you so much!!

[@BookkeepingExpert]

That is awesome!

[@coronanguio4829]

Hey! I’m also from Mexico, I need some advice tho…where can I contact u?

[@liedobacelar6685]

Hi! I'm a Brazilian accountant and I'm thinking of working as a bookkeeper in the USA. I've been told it's possible, so here I am, researching on the internet. Your videos have encouraged me a lot. Thank you! You do a great job.

[@BookkeepingExpert]

You can do it!

[@JOAOLOPES-cr8wh]

Did you manage do it?

[@jaredwing8248]

I found your channel after I have been studying trying to start my bookkeeping business. I currently work in the IT industry and spend most of my time in front of the computer with not that much time spent on work. So I’m starting this to supplement income and hopefully build it to where it’s my only income. You’re a great inspiration and I will continue to watch your videos. Hopefully I will buy your course soon too. It seems to be the right one.

[@jaredwing8248]

I was wondering if you had a course for just sales and marketing. I’ve already gotten my quickbooks pro advisor certification and taken accounting 1 & 2 in college along with multiple fundamental bookkeeping courses. I’m looking for one specifically focused on sales and marketing.

[@BookkeepingExpert]

That's awesome! Currently, I only have 1 full course for everything

[@BookkeepingMama]

Thank you! Your videos and mentoring are top notch! Keep up the great work.

[@BookkeepingExpert]

I appreciate that!

[@user-rh8iy3dw6o]

I just did a search and your channel came up. I completed a "course" in the past week, spent about $100 only to learn that the host's "mentorship" program to get all the insider info is just under 5 grand....really? After I spent what I did and yes, I got some info, took notes, etc., but of course he didn't reveal the actual mentorship amount til almost the end of the class. You might be able to guess who he is, but I'll keep it to myself. I'm glad I found your channel. I don't know if I'll be able to do this, but I truly think I'd be able to since after a while it becomes repetitive and l learn by doing always. I'm intermediate with comps, I had to learn working in multiple windows on ONE screen way back in 2004 so comps don't make me nervous...just the learning curve as usual, then It's all good. Thanks for what you are doing to help.

[@BookkeepingExpert]

You'll be able to do it!! Never give up

[@user-rh8iy3dw6o]

@@BookkeepingExpert Thank you so much. I watch you and think if I'd had the determination you have had all your life I would have been much farther ahead, but we are all different. I'm sure your parents are so pleased with you. They did a good job. Blessings and gratitude for the guidance you are providing us. Thank you.

[@bellam6545]

Thank you for the videos!! Question, I’m trying to figure out what niche clients would be easier for my beginner journey? What type of clients would you recommend to keep bookkeeping under control as a beginner?

[@BookkeepingExpert]

I would not pick a niche. I would work with any business who is willing to hire you!

[@Mamamo2024]

Been watching your playlist. Thank you for doing this. Although your just repeating your self. But there are still something new. I also love hearing you. Thank you keep doing this.

Thanks for that!

[@BookkeepingExpert]

Awesome!!

[@MelissaMendi]

Hey Zach! I have a startup bookkeeping business and this video surely hits the spot for me! One of the most helpful (and relatable) videos I've seen on this topic. I have basic accounting principles down, took a couple bookkeeping certification courses and I still feel so anxious to get my first client. Do you have any tips or resources of how to work with someone who is more seasoned? If you already have a video on that pls point me in that direction. I've gone through so many of your videos already. Especially as I work in the backend of my business. Thanks for all your content!!

[@BookkeepingExpert]

I don't have resources for that, but I hope you can learn!!

[@diastoleny]

Contact some local CPA firms. My wife is always looking for book keepers for her clients. I've heard her say a person can make a good living as a book keeper if they're good. I've also heard her say GOOD book keepers are hard to find and when she does, they get paid accordingly and CPAs will get you clients. Just take a lot of pride in what you do and in your work.

[@MelissaMendi]

@@diastoleny Thanks so much for this!!! I appreciate your time and advice. If your wife is looking for any virtual bookkeepers, I'd love to chat with her!

[@ryankiel4895]

I wish that I could work an extra one or two hours a night at a side hustle. But that would be my third job. Laundry, dishes, long work needs to be done. I support wife and four kids. I already have a full-time job in my side job is the national guard. I don't think I have enough time and energy for a third job, but it would be great. I just want to get out of debt by finishing paying my mortgage which is only $12,000 left. Then I think my financial position will be much stronger. Pray for me. God bless you. I really liked your video.

[@BookkeepingExpert]

Thanks for watching! God bless you

Hey Zack , I really want to thank you for posting these videos they help motivating me to start my own book keeping business but just got 1 question do i really have to use quick books ? or can i use spreadsheet softwares like excel please let me know . ( i did business admin and know advanced managerial finance and financial accounting ) so i know the fundamentals

[@user-ej1yy3xh8z]

damn you never replied..

[@BookkeepingExpert]

I definitely recommend using QuickBooks!

I just came across this video on KZbin and want to say good information! I am middle age and transitioning into the accounting field. I figured bookkeeping is a good transition. I see a lot of courses and certifications but was wondering what is the best way to get a bookkeeping job starting a business at this time?

[@BookkeepingExpert]

Bookkeeping job vs bookkeeping business is very different. To get a job, I would just search job postings on LinkedIn

[@jerel2119]

@@BookkeepingExpert OK, but I was wondering if I should get the QuickBooks certification or another certification that I found on the web where a variety of subjects are taught is the best route towards an entry level bookkeeping job?

I don't know how the taxes work for an LLC, so As an LLC, would I get a 1099 from my clients or would I take my pay from the profits?

[@BookkeepingExpert]

It can be kind of complicated, but yes, you would get a 1099 from your clients if you are not an S Corp.

10:40 Welp. I guess I'm not cut out for it. If there was a "make the same mistake in a slightly different way 12,000 times, not understand that is my own fault, become upset and blame it on God or some other villain, and then try the same thing again while fooling myself into believing I'm doing something different by changing some minor details and rebranding it, go all in thinking this time it will be different" business, I would monopolize the market within a week!

Hi Zach! I work at a Tax Firm and my boss wants to give me his bookkeeping clients, he wants to focus on corporate taxes only. He has about 30-50 clients and wants to start me off with about 10. Your videos have been extremely helpful. Do you sell contracts and payment authorization forms? Also, do you have a specific video that talks about profit and loss and balance sheet?

[@BookkeepingExpert]

[@OurStories.Podcast]

@@BookkeepingExpert I purchased the contract a few days ago. I wanted to purchase your course. Does it actually explain how to prepare a PL & balance sheet? I purchased a course from another guy once and he only spoke about sales and marketing, which I was numbed out by it because it felt like I wasted my money on it.

[@virtualambience8831]

Hi! Are you by any chance looking for any virtual bookkeepers to help you with those bookkeeping clients? I can work for you for part-time on a remote setting. I'm currently handling a client locally (Philippines) but would love to expand internationally. Let's have a chat!
