5 Things Every Virtual Bookkeeper Should Consider Going Into 2023

Season 3, Ep. 44

This week's episode is a replay of a live training I did over in the free Bookkeeper Basecamp community on Facebook.

Paying attention to, and then implementing the principles I share in this training will help position you for success in 2023.

If you're a virtual bookkeeper running your own business, or you aspire to start your own virtual bookkeeping business, you really ought to check out the community: I go live in that group at least 3 or 4 times per month to share my insights, offer free trainings, and host office hours to help you launch and grow your own successful bookkeeping business.

These are the things I want you to focus on for the next 60 days or so:

1. The Law of Transformation

Transformation beats transactions, when it comes to business.

2. The Law of Ownership

Understand the pieces of the process that you own vs your client owns, and set expectations and boundaries accordingly during onboarding.

3. The Law of Optimization

Have processes in place that help you manage your time so you are as efficient as possible.

4. The Law of Appreciation

Recognize the value that your results create for your clients.

5. The Law of Leadership

Position yourself as the CEO of your company, not an employee or technician of your company.
