Why I Don’t Use a Bookkeeper for My Small Business
Why am I writing an income report?
I think it is important for entrepreneurs to be honest about not just how much they are bringing in, but also how much they are spending.
Main ways my business makes money?
- Website in a day
- Website in a week
- Affiliate courses or platforms
- Social media management
- Squarespace DIY your website course
Total Income January – April: $18,195
$4,500 is GREAT for me considering I only work part time!
How many hours a week do you work?
I have my kids in daycare 2 days a week and I HUSTLE those days. I probably work about 20 hours a week. Below is what a LOW WEEK looks like (I was on vacation so I only worked 8 hours total).
Main Big Expenses
- Dubsado – I use this for workflows, invoicing clients, and contracts
- Showit – website platform host
- Virtual assistant – helps with my social media clients

Get the Business Spreadsheet Tracker HERE. I love Dolly DeLong’s “The Bookkeeping Template For Creatives” and have been using it since 2020! Don’t walk, RUN to go get it! 10/10 SUGGEST! This is why I haven’t needed a bookkeeper or accountant in my business.

I’ve got messy hair and a thirsty heart.
I overshare my life, and have an ultra-expressive personality. Some words people use to describe me are: helpful, real, fun, creative, authentic, and kind.
Elphaba from Wicked is kind of my alter-ego as I am always trying to forge my own path and make a difference in the World, somehow, someway, while also constantly criticizing myself and trying to become the better version of me.
Quality conversations + coffee come easy to me.
I’ve never had an issue connecting naturally with others (probs because I can go on and on about my life story, not that it is interesting, I just process externally, anyone else?!)
I find so much joy in helping and serving others and I give myself fully to whatever it is that engages me, whether that is running a 50k or creating a website in a day.
