Business bookkeeping training support

The training and support you need to improve your financial know-how and automate your business bookkeeping!

Lack of good bookkeeping not only hurts your business, it can really get you down.

Where all this so-called “freedom” is?

Why there isn’t more money in the bank?

If it isn’t just easier to give up and get a job?

If you’ll ever have enough time and money to take that dream vacation?

If you’ll ever have a weekend to relax without feeling guilty?

You know that things aren’t working, but you don’t know what to fix, or how to fix it.

…And that’s where The Bookkeeping Antidote comes in.

What you don’t know about your books leads to problems

What you don’t know about your books leads to problems

Actually, Three BIG Problems…

1

1

Paperwork Multiplies

Bookkeeping is like the laundry pile that never stops growing. You do your best with apps or inefficient spreadsheets.

When you run into problems, you spin your wheels, chewing through a lot of time looking for solutions.

This is not fun! Soon procrastination takes over. Any headway you make is soon forgotten. You start all over again with bigger piles of older stuff.

You're Bleeding Money

You miss CRA deadlines and incur penalties. You make bad decisions because you are flying blind, just hoping for the best. Your accounting bills are high–much more than you expected and you don’t understand much about what you are getting for your money.

You are constantly babysitting your bank balance.

You're Missing Out

When you don’t have good data and lack financial know-how, you spend all your time in the weeds.

Instead of bringing freedom, your business is like a ball & chain that bleeds you dry and sucks your soul. You get bogged down by things that “have to be done”, distracting you from doing what you’re good at; the reason you started your business in the first place!

You wish you had more time and money for your family.

These THREE myths  are at the root  of ALL of these problems
Bookkeeping only matters at tax time

Waiting until tax time to see how your business is doing is like buying a ticket to a concert that happened yesterday.

Someone else will do a better job

Assuming someone else is going to mind your business better than you can leave you vulnerable to fraud and leads to big messes.

You don't have time for bookkeeping

People who use the right tools in the right way don’t waste time doing things they hate. They never fall behind because they find that having instant access to their financials IS ADDICTIVE.

Why Should You Trust Me?

 

I’m a professional bookkeeper with a strong business background and tons of experience working with small and mid-sized business owners.

Do you know where most bookkeepers get their qualifications…? Yeah, I don’t either. The sad truth is ANYONE can call themselves a bookkeeper. Scary right?!

I am a Certified Professional Bookkeeper (CPBs). Less than 0.5% of all bookkeepers in Canada have earned this designation. 

Why does that matter to you? 

It matters because it means that’s I’ve been tested at high levels, I’m certified, and I’m required to stay on top of the industry in Canada. I abide by a code of conduct and I really know my stuff. 

I want to share the exact same tools & strategies I use to help hundreds of business owners take control of their business finances. I’ve been paid thousands of dollars by businesses to help them understand and implement these strategies, and now I want to guide you through those same tools and strategies through The Bookkeeping Antidote system. Let me empower you!

                  Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions

What If I hate bookkeeping?

I hate bookkeeping too, but I  love showing business owners the power of knowing your numbers. The Bookkeeping Antidote is designed to teach you how to automate most of the pesky bookkeeping so you can focus on actually using your numbers to run your business.

It’s better to outsource the bookkeeping, isn’t it?

This is a myth. Educating yourself on what competent financial management looks like is a must to protect yourself from over-priced or unqualified help and even fraud. Your business is safer with you firmly in the driver’s seat. Once you have a good grasp of the finances, you may want to hire someone to help you out; however, before you understand the financial part of your business yourself, you should NEVER turn your things over to someone else.

What if I’m not a numbers person?

This system is built for you! The whole point of this comprehensive course is to teach non-numbers business owners how to get comfortable with their finances.

I’m doing an awesome job already. Why would I need this system?

Great! If already know where you make the most money, never worry about collecting from your customers, use your real-time financial data to make smart decisions, and nothing is falling through the cracks or keeping you up all night, you’re a rockstar! The Bookkeeping Antidote is for the other 98% of business owners who are struggling.

How much time is this going to take?

The course allows you to learn at your own pace, so that depends on you. Learning the basics takes a couple of hours. Once you grasp the essentials, you can deep dive into any area you like, or keep things simple and take one little bite at a time.

How long do I have access to the course?

As long as you’re a Smart Monkey member, you have access.

What happens to my subscriptions if I cancel my membership?

They’ll be turned over to you. You’ll pay retail price directly to QBO and Dext. 

What kind of support will I get?

The All-You-Can Eat Help Desk gives you unlimited support. That alone is worth the price of admission! I’ll help you with your bookkeeping and technical questions and share my members-only knowledge base. What’s more, you won’t have to worry about keeping up with all of the latest updates and information. I do that for you!

Is everything available immediately?

Yes! All modules of the training will be unlocked so you can go at your own pace. Once you make your purchase, you’ll receive a questionnaire which I’ll use to complete your set-up. It takes about one business day to set up your QuickBooks Online file and integrate it with Dext. In the meantime, you will have immediate access to the training.

I tried QuickBooks Online before and got frustrated. How will this be different?

If you’ve tried and failed in the past, you’re not alone. The difference is this time, a professional bookkeeper will be at your side every step of the way, showing you what needs to be done and how to use the apps in your business.

What if I already have a QuickBooks Online or Dext subscription?

You won’t have to pay for it anymore!* I’ll take over your payments, and have QuickBooks Online upgraded to Plus and your Dext account will have unlimited users and uploads! Once you purchase your membership, I’ll walk you through transferring the billing over to Smart Monkey.
* This does not apply to people using QBO payroll. If you run payroll and are interested in purchasing The Bookkeeping Antidote, then email me at ask@smartmonkey.ca

What if it’s not what I expect?

If you’re not satisfied with your purchase within the 7-day free trial, contact us to cancel. If I opened up the Dext & QBO accounts for you, I’ll close them and you’ll be right back where you started. If you already had your own subscriptions, I’ll transfer them back to you.

After the first 7 days, your membership is month to month and can be cancelled anytime.

Do you have people who have used this with success?

Yes! Smart Monkey members have included those who are just starting their businesses, as well as those who’ve been in business for years.

How does the 20-point Health Check-Up work?

Around 90 days after your membership starts, I will contact you to see how you’re doing in the course and if you’re ready for me to do the check-up. You can choose to have me do it then, or wait until you’re ready. It can be “cashed-in” anytime during your membership after that.

Why won’t you do the Health Check-Up right away?

If you’re new to Quickbooks Online you will get the most out of the check-up if you spend some time deep diving into the materials and actively using the program. In fact the more data you have for me to work with the better. If you already had a QBO account, you’re doing to want to spend time in the course and applying what you learn. Then when I do the check-up, I  can help you focus in on the leftover problems, rather than telling you everything needs work.

Isn’t it going to take too much time?

In my experience, there’s a bit more of a time commitment at the beginning as you’re learning the system. After that, there’s a big time savings because you’re doing things right the first time using automated systems. How much time (and money) have you wasted fixing mistakes, Googling answers, and generally cleaning up mess after mess?

What if I sell products? Will this still work for me?

If you sell products and you already use an app for your inventory and sales (e.g., Shopify), this system will work for you. 

I’m not computer savvy. Will this still work for me?

You need to own a smartphone with a data plan, and be comfortable using a web browser & online banking. The rest you will learn.

Where Will You Be a Year From Now?

We all want to build successful, money-making businesses, but we can’t get there without taking action and working smarter. 

Doing the same thing over and over again is going to keep you EXACTLY where you are now.

Are you okay with that? Or will you look back 6 months from now and wish you’d taken action?

With The Bookkeeping Antidote, in 1 year you’ll have a handle on the money part of your business, avoided penalties and other expensive mistakes, and gained the confidence and knowledge you need to continue growing your business.

How amazing would that be?
