Bookkeepers On Fire with Deb & Donna

đź’Ą Stop selling yourself short. đź’Ą

 Bookkeeping isn’t about clocking hours or “what clients can afford.” It’s about VALUE.

 Here’s the raw truth we see every day & ✨ 3 Spicy Takeaways:

🚫 Stop guessing clients’ budgets — let THEM decide what they can pay.
🧨 Meetings aren’t “optional fluff.” They’re where the real strategy (and value) happens.
💎 Clients will pay for outcomes, not hours — but only if you position yourself as more than a checkbook babysitter.

🔥 Bookkeepers, you bring more to the table than reconciliations. Stop shrinking. Own it.
