Hello there! As the owner and professional bookkeeper of Glo-ing Profit, I am the face you’ll soon get to know well! When I was in high school, I studied Engineering Technology and I graduated top of my vocational class and 7th in the school. I loved math and numbers (I know, I’m a nerd) and I did well. But when it was time to go to college I realized I didn’t want to be an engineer- it just didn’t feel right. I studied Biology for two years (I love animals and Nature) and tutored mathematics and business students to pay for rent and groceries. But I was working too much to have time to be enrolled full time, and I lost my scholarship. I had no idea what I was going to do. Then it hit me that I couldn’t pick a career that I was good at but didn’t love, or loved but didn’t excel in, so I studied bookkeeping and entrepreneurship to start my own virtual bookkeeping business! I love the field and I love being in a position to help other small businesses grow, and I love my job!

A few things we'd rather not see haunting your business this Halloween:

👻 Months of uncategorized transactions
👻 Missing receipts
👻 Unreconciled accounts
👻 A QuickBooks account you haven't opened in months
👻 Not knowing your actual profit

The good news? Your books don't have to be scary.

Whether you need a little help or a full clean-up, we're here to help you get organized without the lectures or judgment.

No tricks. Just bookkeeping with Grace. 🎃

Happy Halloween from Gloing Profit!

Falling behind on your books doesn't make you a bad business owner.

Sometimes you're busy. Sometimes your business grows faster than your systems. Sometimes bookkeeping just isn't your thing.

Whatever the reason, you don't need a lecture. You need a solution.

We'll meet you where you are, figure out what needs attention, and help you move forward.

That's what Bookkeeping With Grace means to us. Book a call to see how we can help you with your books!

Before the year gets away from you, take a quick look at your books:

1. Are your accounts reconciled?
Your books should match your actual bank and credit card activity.

2. Do you have uncategorized transactions?
Review them now so important expenses don't get overlooked.

3. Do your reports make sense?
Look at your revenue, expenses, and profit. Does the picture match what's actually happening in your business?

A little attention now can mean a lot less stress later.

Not quite.

Revenue is the money coming into your business.

Profit is what's left after your business expenses are accounted for.

And your bank balance? That's another number entirely.

Looking at revenue alone can make your business look healthier than it actually is. That's why it's important to understand the relationship between your revenue, expenses, profit, and cash flow.

Your books should help you see the whole picture.

If you’ve ever opened a Profit & Loss statement and thought, “Okay... but what am I actually looking at?” you’re not alone.

A P&L is one of the most useful reports for understanding the financial health of your business. It shows your revenue, expenses, and profit over a specific period of time.

Here are a few things to pay attention to:

Revenue: How much money did your business bring in?
Expenses: Where is your business spending money? Are there categories that have increased significantly?
Profit: After your expenses are accounted for, how much is actually left?

The goal isn't just to look at the final profit number. Looking at these pieces together can help you spot patterns, understand where your money is going, and make more informed decisions.

And you don't have to wait until tax season to look at your P&L.

Your books should help you understand what's happening in your business while there's still time to do something about it.

In case you didn't know, I'm a cat lover, and this is my fur baby, Maple. 🐱

She has made it her personal mission to make sure I never sleep in, and this is how she wakes me up every morning.

Watch the whole thing for a laugh. 😂

Running a business is serious work, but I think it's important to have a little fun in between the spreadsheets and bookkeeping, too.

How many times have you told yourself, “I'll catch up on the books this weekend”?

Then the weekend comes around, and suddenly you'd rather do just about anything else.

The truth is, bookkeeping is important, but that doesn't mean you have to be the one doing every part of it.

You're busy serving clients, making sales, managing your team, creating, solving problems, and actually running your business. It's easy for the back-office tasks to keep getting pushed down the list.

That's where having the right support can make a difference.

Handing off your bookkeeping isn't just about getting transactions categorized. It's about getting some of your time and mental energy back so you can focus on the parts of your business that actually need you.

Your business deserves your attention. Your bookkeeping deserves attention, too. Book a call today to see how our team can support!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting one of our clients, Jonathan Sprouts, and it was such a treat to see their business in person! 🌱

Jonathan Sprouts has been growing organic sprouts in Massachusetts since 1976, and what started with fresh organic produce has grown into so much more. Today, they offer a variety of organic sprouts and microgreens, along with their farm-to-face Broccoli Sprout Skincare collection.

As a bookkeeper, I spend a lot of time looking at the numbers behind a business. Getting to step into the business itself is a great reminder that behind every transaction, report, and spreadsheet are real people building something they care about.

That's one of my favorite parts of working with small businesses. ❤️

So grateful to support the people behind and to get a little glimpse into what they do!

Not sure what kind of bookkeeping support your business actually needs? You're not alone. Different stages of business often call for different kinds of financial support.

Here are three common scenarios:

🖊️ You need a clean-up.
If you've fallen behind, have months of uncategorized transactions, unreconciled accounts, or books that don't accurately reflect your business, a historical clean-up may be the best place to start. The goal is to get everything organized, accurate, and current.

🖊️ You need ongoing support.
If your books are currently in good shape but you don't want to spend your evenings keeping them that way, monthly bookkeeping can help. Regular transaction categorization, reconciliations, and financial reporting keep small issues from turning into a major backlog.

🖊️ You need help understanding your numbers.
Accurate books are only useful if you know what they're telling you. Financial guidance can help you look beyond your bank balance and understand things like profitability, cash flow, spending patterns, and whether your business is financially ready for its next step.

And sometimes, you need a combination of all three.

The important thing is that there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer. Your bookkeeping needs depend on where your business is today and where you're trying to go.
