Put your math skills to the test as a bookkeeper
Many bookkeepers have had no formal qualifications prior to starting bookkeeping.
Skills required to be a good bookkeeper are basic accounting knowledge, attention
to detail, being orderly and well organized, being able to resolve problems and
having basic knowledge of computers and software programs like Quickbooks.
The majority of work from home bookkeepers have 10 or less clients and get paid
on an hourly basis between $15 and $30 per hour depending on the experience, industry
and complexity of the work.
Best way to build up a client base for a bookkeeping business is to find a couple
of clients (either through referrals or an online job site (see above), do a good
job for them and then ask them for referrals. Word of mouth is the major source
of new business for bookkeepers, followed by referrals by accountants and tax attorneys.
