      It’s only distracting in my opinion because they’re too loud compared to the voice and they’re also not lined up properly, I also feel like not all the sound effects matched up with the graphics as well

    Starting a small business, and I am trying so hard to learn to like the accounting side of things rather than dreading it. I appreciate the persuasive overview. I am beginning to see that it's crucial to start good habits in case my business scales up one day. This was super for an absolute beginner. I first just needed to learn the terminology in a straightforward way. It's a lot more interesting when you own the business.

    • @LYFEAccounting
      @LYFEAccounting  3 года назад +2

      Thanks for sharing Denelle, yes starting a business is hard in general. I would say that don't get to worried about the accounting side until your starting to spend some serious money or make at least 5 figures in revenue

    This is soooo good! I've been in business for more than 25 years. Accounting has always been the weakest area of my business skillset. This was extremely helpful! I love how you presented the information in a clear, concise, and simple way. I didn't even like accounting when I was in college. That's probably why it is one of the most neglected parts of my business. But, not for long...

    • @user-uy3eq5hg1s
      @user-uy3eq5hg1s Год назад

      Me too... to be honest, all of this accounting stuff kinda drives me nuts. My business is low profit margin and tough to keep afloat as it is so hiring an accountant isn't realistic... but learning all of this myself is making my brain hurt and stressing me out. Maybe I should just come up with the cash to hire an accountant?
