    261: Year End QuickBooks And Tax Strategies Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Mompreneur, Freelancer, Bookkeeper, Virtual Assistant, Or Business Owner
    Dec 18 2024
    If you have a business or do bookkeeping for business owners, you know now is the time you need to wrap up your year-end financial statements. If you’ve heard the phrase closing the books, this is exactly what it means. You simply make sure you have all your money coming in and money going out of your business recorded and reconciled so that your financial statements reflect accurate data. You will use this data to prepare your tax return, so it is extremely important that you do this correctly. In today’s podcast episode, you’ll learn the top tasks you need to do to close out your books whether you are using a computerized software system like QuickBooks, Xero, Wave, or FreshBooks for your business finances, or if you are doing your bookkeeping manually with an Excel spreadsheet or even a Google Document. Many of the processes are the same regardless of which system you use to do your bookkeeping. Having your financial statements and your bookkeeping ready so that you can have your tax return prepared on time with little to no stress is the ultimate goal here. Whether you are just getting started with your business, you are a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, an entrepreneur, a small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, I want you to make sure you are prepared to file your taxes on time feeling confident that you have accurate data.

    There is a lot of talk about belief this time of the year, but I feel like belief is such a vital part of having a side hustle or being a solopreneur. You’ve heard me say dream big, follow your heart, and love what you do before, and we are going to talk about how belief is such an essential aspect of not only dreaming big but also reaching your goals, creating the business you desire and getting to the next level. It’s about pushing past the results you are currently achieving and reaching for something even greater in your business. In today’s podcast episode, we are going to dig deeper into the belief you have for not only yourself but for your business as well. Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper, or a virtual assistant or VA, the belief you have in yourself and what you and your business can do is key to moving your success past your current level and on to a higher level of success.
