  • How much time does it take to become a bookkeeper? And, once you're a bookkeeper, how long does it take each week and month? This can vary depending on how much time and effort you put in each week, as well as your experience level when you start bookkeeping (if you're an accounting major, it may go more quickly than if you're starting at zero). I'll talk about how long it takes to set up your bookkeeping business, learn QuickBooks Online (or other software), get clients and work for each client.

    Yeah, that's actually the challenge of new bookkeepers: finding clients. Because clients prefer someone with relevant experience, at least a year, so unpaid internship or on the job training really is the only way to land a contract since we're dealing with financial statements and not just data entry.

    Hi Morgan, I love love love your videos! Please keep it up! I would like to get your expert opinion on the following, do I need to have a business set up in order to provide bookkeeping services? My focus is on bookkeeping as a side job, at least at the beginning, to provide services as an individual contractor (not a DBA). I would file my income for tax purposes and pay my dues quarterly. From your experience, what would you say?

      Hi Moshe! You can definitely start your own bookkeeping business on the side after hours. This could be a good way to jump start your own bookkeeping business as your full time career.

    How many hours per week do you work and how many clients do you have?

    • @FinePointsBookkeeping
      @FinePointsBookkeeping  3 года назад +6

      My current workload is skewed because I spend about half of my (part-time) schedule on RUclips, but historically as a bookkeeper I have 3-7 clients and work 2 days a week. I don't have a set schedule at the moment (in part b/c of my kids' school being at home in 2020), so I work a bit sporadically--but eventually I'd like to track my time more carefully and do a video about how I spend my time.

      I think it's possible, and I bet people do. Probably depends on your personality and how much you charge. You could ask on a bookkeeper Facebook group to see other examples. Have you seen my video about earning 100K (or your income goal)? ruclips.net/video/pePJ-WAHvVA/видео.html Pair that with my video about small/med/large clients to get a better idea. ruclips.net/video/8A877-pVRKA/видео.html

    If you don’t have the previous knowledge of bookkeeping then……Get proper training!!!! you absolutely cannot be a bookkeeper without taking some sort of accounting classes you need a college accounting class and you need a QuickBooks class minimum to start doing anything. anybody who tells you it’s OK to start a bookkeeping business or anything to do with bookkeeping without the proper schooling and knowledge is lying and this is not anything to be taking lately you’re messing with peoples finances you better know what you’re doing people
