Episode 46 How to Improve Your Bookkeeping in 3 Steps featured blog post image

As the year draws to a close, a lot of you have reached out and asked me what you can do to significantly improve your bookkeeping.

Now, I know that math isn’t as fun for most people as it is for me, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t make simple shifts in your business to make your bookkeeping less daunting!

So, hear me out, my friend and let me share 3 actionable + simple steps on how you can be more intentional and improve your bookkeeping practices for 2022 (and the years to come)!

improve your bookkeeping for better analysis of your numbers:

  1. First of, you’ll need to review your chart of accounts and customize it to your business. We’re using QuickBooks and it’s one of the easiest ways to track and organize your numbers regardless if you have a bookkeeper in your team or not.
  2. Use classes in QuickBooks to sort and categorize items in your business at a granular level. This helps in creating an overview of your deparment’s revenue and expenses!
  3. You can run better reports by having comparative data handy and notating your budget in your QuickBooks. This means you need to track your numbers accurately so that you have something to measure against when you’re trying to figure out how much your numbers have progressed.

Bookkeeping doesn’t have to be complicated and I’m here to show you how. So, make sure you tune in to this episode to learn more about practical applications for each of these steps!

“Don’t think of the budget as something limiting. Your budget is just your goals that you have set at a certain point in time. And then throughout the year, we’re just going to measure against that set of goals.” – Stephanie Skryzowski

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How to review your chart of accounts and customize it to your business
  • Why you should use classes and how it will help you with running P&L by departments

Episode 45 The 3 Biggest Hardest Lessons of Building a Million Dollar Business in 2021

Episode 45: The 3 Biggest, Hardest Lessons of Building a Million Dollar Business in 2021

Episode 45 The 3 Biggest Hardest Lessons of Building a Million Dollar Business in 2021 blog post featured image

If you’re an entrepreneur, then you know that the journey to building a million dollar business is definitely not an easy one! It takes a considerable amount of trial and error to get things working just the way you want it. And sometimes, if we’re not careful, impostor syndrome can set in! But as John Wooden once said, “Good things take time, as they should. We shouldn’t expect good things to happen overnight. Actually, getting something too easily or too soon can cheapen the outcome.” 

But what does it take to be a successful business owner?

  1. You need to be willing to work hard and make sacrifices in order for your business to grow.
  2. You need to surround yourself with highly capable and reliable individuals that believe in your mission.
  3. And most importantly, you have to be relentless in pursuing your goals!

Ahh… I bet you’re thinking, “Stephanie, aren’t these 3 things a given? What else can I do to make 2022 a better year?” 

So, join me in this episode, as I share the biggest lessons that helped me speed up the process and get that much closer to building a million dollar business:

  • The first lesson is about investing in your team members so they can do their jobs well and feel empowered at work.
  • Next is creating and streamlining systems + internal infrastructure within your organization so it runs like clockwork even when you’re not around. (Because we all know how important it is for entrepreneurs to spend time on growing their businesses rather than wasting time doing administrative tasks themselves!)
  • And finally, the third lesson: hiring coaches or mentors who can guide us through difficult times and provide us with valuable advice. This helps us take significantly less time to discover and understand what we might otherwise never thought of ourselves.

These lessons were such a game-changer for me and I’m sure that these will help make 2022 your year of greater growth and abundance!

“I was very intentional about all four of those things: how I was going to make my money, how I was going to invest it, how I would donate it, and how I would save it. And because of that, we have hit our financial goals for the year!” – Stephanie Skryzowski

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • My 5 goals were this year and how I achieved most of them
  • What does building a million dollar business mean for us
  • Why you should invest in your team
  • The 3 Biggest, Hardest Lessons of Building a Million Dollar Business in 2021

Episode 40: How to Find Massive Expansion in Your Career and Life

Episode 40 featured blog post graphic with Stephanie Skryzowski on How to Expand Your Career and Life

If you ask me, I find that there are a lot of ways to find massive expansion in your career and uplevel your life. You can soak in new ideas by reading insightful articles, books, and go full research mode. You can listen to podcasts, attend live events, and invest in learning new skills. But you know what is often left out of the equation?

Just how much we can learn from uncomfortable situations!

Now, I’m not gonna lie, I do have my fair share of moments where things just didn’t feel right. Like I wasn’t meant to be there. Like I wasn’t qualified to be there.

Did I want to leave? YES. Did I want to melt into a puddle of goo and just slip out the door? Definitely! But what ultimately stopped me from quitting was the realization that, oftentimes, these moments of discomfort are exactly what we need to break the mold. It made me realize that beyond this discomfort, these sick-to-your-stomach feelings, is where I’ll find something extraordinary.

And so, let me put my storyteller hat on today, because I don’t think we talk enough about how important it is that we embrace this phase in our journey.

If you’ve been itching for a massive expansion in your career, but end up with a crazy amount of ‘fight or flight’ moments instead, then I urge you to tune in. This episode might just give you the mindset shift you need to push through despite the odds!

“I had a choice, I could have decided that this is not for me, but I didn’t. I’ve decided to push myself through that sick to my stomach feeling. I tried again, learned more, and come back to the table and do it again.” – Stephanie Skryzowski
