What Does a BOOKKEEPER Actually DO?! | Realistic Bookkeeping

[@JENNIFERSONIA8]

I am at the beginning of my "investment journey", planning to put 85K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% per year in dividend returns. Any advice?

[@EdwardAnthony5]

Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.

[@JamesWilliam8]

The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.

$150 monthly is not enough! I charge $300 a month minimum and annually $1000 minimum. I can totally relate to your story because when I started my bookkeeping business I struggled with the pricing and that was the same questions I asked myself, why would a client book me monthly, if annual cost turns out so much less. It’s important to not under value yourself with the pricing. If you charge more, the clients that value your expertise and your work, will pay and value your services/. When people see low cost, they automatically think that it’s not good quality.

[@reds.8995]

Nice experience! It is smart way to charge as monthly and annually. It is too much work for tracking work hours for each clients.

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

I love your comments so much! Thank you for this perspective :)

[@manolitoevangelista4568]

$150 or even $300 a month is way down low charge to do that bookkeeping considering the amount of responsibility & client protection. Not so sure on what kind of liability does bookkeeper has. Pls share

I’m an accountant and for some of my clients that give me the stuff during tax season I have them download their bank transactions in excel. You can then categorize them and tally them up, in less than 30 - 45 minutes. For what you were doing you can just check them off and verify it and it will take a third of the time. You just have to enter in the few of them they did not use their business account for. You may also be some transactions they didn’t receive save the receipts for as well.

[@linkingwithnaz1295]

Great nuts and bolts video on bookkeeping. That's the problem of doing a year's work for $300. He can just do that every year compared to paying someone $150 every month. What you should have done was given your normal rate of $150 a month * 12 months, then show him you giving him a discount. That would have changed his entire perspective.

[@alexanderthorndyke2370]

I'm currently at the beginning of my Bookkeeping career (studying and revising) and this has, by far, been the best video I have seen. You have explained everything in such a straightforward, to the point, fashion that it has been easy to understand for someone such as myself. I will watch more videos. Cheers 🍻

[@simonbradley]

Thank you - probably the most useful video I've seen for someone trying to decide what the job of a bookkeeper entails! Would definitely like to see more like this.

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

I'm so glad it was helpful!

[@JoshMountFilms]

I’m going through your videos in order, and I’ve loved it. I want to start my own bookkeeping business from home, so this is helping me out with perspective. I have thoughts about this video though. I don’t think the problem was that you undercharged for your hourly rate. Instead, I think it just comes down to setting expectations from the start. If at the interview you had said my monthly charge is $150, but as a first-time client, I will give you a discounted hourly rate. That sets the expectation, so instead of feeling like you’re overcharging on your monthly service, your client would feel like you’re giving them a deal right off the bat.

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

I completely agree with you. Having the experience I have now, I would've followed that same game plan. Thank you for your perspective!

[@christinwoodrow9297]

I know I'm very late to this video, but I have to say, that end section about pricing was so helpful for me. I never would have thought about it had you not been willing to share. Thanks for your transparency; it adds a lot of value to your already good content!

[@goldengriffon]

I've often found "budget conscious" customers, those who ask for discounts, etc., tend to be more difficult to deal with down the line. More demanding, acting entitled, often asking for more and more value for no additional pay, and so on. It's hard to turn down business, but I've learned to value myself enough to not be taken advantage of. In regards to bookkeeping, I think at some minimum level of desired service I would simply tell them their needs aren't worth them hiring someone else to do. (I'd need to figure out a nicer way of saying that though...)

Thanks for another valuable video. This past week I have gotten my Quickbooks certification, filed my LLC, designed my website, facebook page, and set up my business checking account. You're videos and encouragement have been so helpful along this process! I've got one potential client that I am about to meet with. So this was a great lesson in pricing and how to approach a new client. I'm the same way with leaning toward undervaluing myself to get in the door with people, but I'm going to really work against that mindset so I don't get into this same situation as you and your restaurant owner. My potential client doesn't have her personal and business finances separated and wants me to help her get them separate so she can clearly see her books. Do you have any advice for doing that, or questions I should ask at our initial meeting? Thanks! And also, just bravo for doing this with a young baby. I see you and I'm there with you (insert Hunger Games salute here)

[@Psalm_27.4]

@Laci Chung Yeah, don't undersell yourself. This co-mingled situation is harder, because you will have to create TWO systems from scratch, and sort stuff out, AND EDUCATE her, so, for sure, don't undersell. If you do decide to be client-friendly and give her a deal rate, you might want to let her know that your hourly rate is such and such, but that this is just a deal, and is lower than your standard rate, in order to be client friendly, but that your monthly maintenance rate is such and such. If she tries to do you like that man did Realistic Bookkeeping, then forget the discount, and just go ahead and charge your regular rate per hour for setting up the separate personal and business systems. ALL THE BEST!

[@MK-ip6eu]

$150 per month is not even high at all wth LOL. Most charge more than that LOL

[@lisaotoole3082]

They could send you photos of the expenses so you aren’t driving for the receipts and they will have their electronic records of receipts. Then your monthly rate could drop. Get batch reports for cc income emailed to you, get bank statements emailed to you. Basically there’s a surcharge for the in person meeting (driving and interaction) built in to the monthly rate. But quarterly of course it will be less. Or you can pick up everything monthly for free when you come by for a free dinner or take out for the family.

[@heatherhartmann7646]

This is great information, thank you! Question... What do you do when you are unable to read the receipt due to fading or if a carbon copy in unreadable? Also, won't the receipts fade when stored for years at a time?

[@shannonleighkelly]

From someone who had a business for over 10 years, yes they do fade. I used excel instead of quick books, and one thing I would do is write the amount of each receipt on the receipt with a pen and the year, so when they faded, I could reference them if I was audited. And then kept each years worth of receipts in a gallon zip lock bag, lol. Once I had the information in the computer my job was done. I figured if I was ever audited, I'd hand the zip lock bags to the irs agent and tell them to have fun auditing me. Why make it easier for them to come after you by organizing everything for them, lol? I was also the person with the receipts spread out around me on my couch, just like in the video!

[@brianabeebe9847]

Maybe this is a dumb question, but let's say a receipt for $100 total had expenses for supplies and materials for a business that equaled $80 and the other $20 was for a different category? How do you split the receipt?

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

In the scenario I have in this video, I would create two rows in the excel for that transaction and split the total so I could categorize both sections. HOWEVER, I will also say that unless the client is paying you for that level of detail (and if they provide you with that level of information) I make the best decision I can for each transaction and move on. In the end, $20 of discrepancy in comparison to $25,000 worth of transactions is not going to make or break the accuracy of their records. Especially since this is cleaning up a mess that wasn't kept up throughout the year. *This is not being pessimistic just realistic :)

[@elhamhojatti608]

hi thanks for your practical videos, but how about the bank reconciliation? did you match every transactions with the bank statement? thanks again and please make a same video for your client who work with qbo

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

This client did not give me access to his bank statements/records so I was incapable of that. However, judging from how working with this particular client turned out I don't think his bank records would EVER reconcile. Not a great system for record keeping on his end.

If using accounting software would you use the excel sheet still?

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

No! If this business owner had been open to using a program like QuickBooks Online, or Xero, or even Gusto, anything, I would have used that over the excel file. But, they were not interested in that and I wanted to give them another option of record keeping. It was also easier on me to do it this way than marking it all on a piece of paper. Hope that answers your question! :)

[@johanserdiroche8590]

So, in order to get hired as a bookeeper, you mainly need to know how to use Excel? I am going to start studying Accounting soon and I thought I had to learn how to use QuickBooks or something like that... Can I get a permanent job at a company as a bookeeper if I know how to use Excel?

[@jedrarx]

From my understanding it depends on what the company is mainly using. Obviously something may happen and the company might switch so it's a good idea to learn both

[@RealisticBookkeeping]

It is in your favor to learn multiple ways/methods of bookkeeping so that you can give your clients options. If you work with a specific company (CPA firm, bookkeeping company, etc.) you will learn whatever software they use for their clients. That could be a form of Excel (unlikely, but possible), QuickBooks, Xero, etc.

But if it's some place like Walmart, it could be anything.

You are worth far more than $150.00 a month, you should have told him when he said it was too much, that to help him out you lowered your prices just to help him out and get his business on it's feet, but you know now never to make that mistake again, and walk out.

QBO is horrible. I found it so difficult to use and get around. Maybe it’s because I’m a control freak and hate that it does all the work. And I feel it’s not accurate. I spend more time trying figure out how to reverse stuff QBO does then actually doing the books
