The Bookkeeping Template for Creatives
I'm Ready!
I'm here to tell you, you CAN track the numbers of your business in clarity & confidence (and not feel dumb or confused by the system & process)
You ARE making money (or at least you THINK you are making money), but you are not yet at the point where you can hire out a professional bookkeeper to track your expenses (AKA: you are still in the in-between stages of DIY-ing your business and slowly outsourcing aspects of your business). But DANG! You feel frazzled every time you sit down to "work on a budget" for your business.
You want to take control of your finances and know exactly where all your money is going in your business (and exactly how much to set aside for your business taxes every month)...but you wished you had a plug and play template to use instead of writing it all out.
You keep telling yourself "I am NOT a numbers person and creating a budget & expense report STRESSES me out!" But at the same time you know you need to get your "*life*" together (and be more organized with your business) so that your accountant doesn't kill you every time tax season comes around.
As a creative business owner, you feel scattered and you know you need a system when it comes to money
sound familiar?
➡️You neglect to keep track of your finances all year long and come tax season you assume you've made a profit only to discover...you owe a lot of money?
➡️You feel like new expenses keep coming up in your business and quite literally you feel blindsided by new expenses you were not expecting!
➡️You feel overwhelmed with where to prioritize your money you are making & you are not yet tracking all your streams of income in the most optimized way
Or, you may be hitting some financial walls with your business
I'm here to tell you that even as a creative business owner, you CAN understand the numbers behind your business! (yes, you can!)
Help you actually be prepared and dare I say it, confident, when it comes to tax time!
Help you create a newfound certainty in yourself of understanding some basic data behind your business!
Help you see how to create a system & workflow in the finances of your business! (Systems & Workflows = Save Time)
Help you experience a sense of peace & freedom in knowing the numbers behind your business!
WHAT IF A FEW SIMPLE CHANGES in your finances could:
Stop stressing over the numbers of your business & see how you can truly profit first by setting up a SYSTEM with this easy plug & play template!
You truly CAN take control of the numbers behind your business once you have working knowledge of how your overhead expenses, profits and savings work together!
...it can give you a sense of freedom!
but guess what?
tracking the numbers of your business doesn't have to be mind-numbing...

"The tutorial videos are excellent and the overall simplicity of the template is excellent!! My husband does the majority of my "official" bookkeeping but I HATE feeling in the dark about what's going on in my business numbers-wise. This template is literalllllly what I've needed but didn't know how to ask for it or make it myself. I love that I am able to set a few different annual $ goals and see how taxes I'll have to pay will affect those goals! This is such an insightful resource to me!"

I have tried so many things before in my business (tracking in Quickbooks--too confusing, tracking in Dubsado--not so great-setting up my own Google Sheet--meh okay) but this is LEGIT the BEST thing I have found! I am LOVING every bit of it! I cannot believe you are only selling it for $27! The Videos were super helpful in helping me better understand the template too! Thank you Dolly!"
