Getting Started in Your Bookkeeping Business
Ever thought about Starting Your Own Bookkeeping Business?
1) How to find your first client
2) How much to charge
3) What equipment / resources to get started
We’ve developed a program to get you earning some money by getting you some fee paying clients.
“Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the services that you have provided to me. I am very happy with the clients that you have provided to me and the arrangement we have in place. It has enabled me to expand my client base easily and without too much stress! Our association may have been in place for only a short time but I have found working with you a pleasure and have enjoyed the exchange of ideas and opinions.” - Ann-Marie, Brisbane
Really there are only a few simple steps to starting a bookkeeping business and getting new clients!
Most bookkeepers just want a few clients for extra money and are not too interested in having a “business” as such - they average 3 or 4 clients around 20 hours per week
Yes, some want to go fulltime and build a business and hence then buy bookkeeping franchises. Here’s a handy book about Starting Your Own Bookkeeping Business … You can find the answers to these and many more questions here by securing your copy of “How to Find Bookkeeping Clients” .

We have bookkeepers who just want to get their foot on the ladder by getting a couple of clients.
Bookkeepers hate having to get clients - so are happy for us to source them. Once they get a couple of clients, they are then confident to get their own clients.
Before referring a bookkeeper we ascertain the skill levels of our bookkeeper. There’s certain information we need to ensure we refer the best bookkeeper to the client.
You may not feel confident, and don’t really know how much to charge. Have you ever wondered why it is that when you contact potential clients you often find yourself being “interviewed” by the clients, and having to send resumes etc, waste time in interviews and not necessarily get the contract?
We have never had that problem - we have an approach we take with potential clients that overcomes all of that. We overcome all objections etc in securing new clients - then tell the clients to expect to receive a phone call from one of our bookkeepers.
You’ll then meet the client, do the required work, and find yourself running a bookkeeping business!
We Help bookkeepers to start your business
We provide a consultancy service to help bookkeepers get started in their business, and we incurr a cost in doing that.
When we work with the bookkeeper, we will secure three new clients for the bookkeeper, as well as offering telephone support to the bookkeeper for the time that we work with you.
In order to keep the start-up costs to a minimum, we have developed a program that is a win-win-win. It’s a win for the client, a win for the bookkeeper, and a win for ourselves. If you do not make money from the program, nor do we. How fair can that be?
I have for many years thought of starting my own bookkeeping business, and when there was a change in my employment status I decided that now was the time to start. I fumbled around for 6 weeks trying to make a start but just not quite knowing how, and finding myself overcome with too many questions.
Finally I got on the internet and typed in “How to start a bookkeeping business” and this web site came up. I read the information and entered my details. The next working day I had a phone call from the Bookkeeping Team, who in one phone call eased all of my concerns and questions.
By the end of the week the Bookkeeping Team had put me in contact with 2 new clients, and by the end of the next week a third client. It was just so simple, I wish I had done it earlier.
I am now looking forward to having my own successful bookkeeping business, and with the help of the Bookkeeping Team I am sure that I can build this business faster than I could have ever imagined.

The information that we provide our bookkeepers at the outset has come through tried and tested methods, it is not theoretical. Our experience has shown that once we have organised three clients for a bookkeeper, they have the confidence and understanding to expand their bookkeeping business to whatever level they choose to take it
We offer telephone support to our bookkeepers. Sometimes a bookkeeper may choose to email us the data file so that we can help them if they are having difficulties with a particular job.
You can find all the information that we provide for free if you are willing to take the time to do the research yourself. Bear in mind that for bookkeepers, time is money, so that the longer you are taking to do the research, the more you’ll need to work to compensate. Our program gets you earning almost straight away and save you having to “reinvent the wheel”
