Many bookkeepers have faced the challenges of marketing and finding great clients. And those of us that manage to jump that hurdle then find we\u2019re facing a whole new set of challenges: long hours, ever-dwindling time for friends and family, and how to earn the rates we deserve.<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-sm-12-12 col-md-3-12\">\n<p>I\u2019m Debbie Roberts, a fellow bookkeeper. I\u2019ve been in your shoes. Back in 2001, I was facing all those challenges. \u201cBAS-ON\u201d (as my husband calls it) was crazy. I didn\u2019t see my family, I was working long hours but I still wasn\u2019t getting the financial rewards I deserved. Then I started working with business coach Peter Cook. As a result, I made a series of important changes. Some were easy to make. Others were more difficult. However, I successfully made the changes I needed to make. The result? By 2010, I had a successful team of 12 bookkeepers. I enjoyed sensible hours. My personal income more than trebled and I worked with a much higher caliber of clients. Today, I enjoy a long annual holiday\u2014with no worries about running my bookkeeping business.<\/p>\n<div class=\"col-sm-12-12 col-md-6-12\">The key to a great bookkeeping business is great clients. Clients that value your work, value your time, and pay you accordingly. It sounds simple, but it\u2019s anything but. Not cracking the sales and marketing leaves many business owners stressed out, underpaid, and feeling unfulfilled. A steady stream of new clients flowing in the door unlocks so many possibilities for your business. Wouldn\u2019t it be great if you could \u201csack\u201d your bad clients because you knew there was a steady stream of new clients flowing in? Wouldn\u2019t it be great if you could raise your hourly rate by $5-10 dollars an hour, safe in the knowledge that you can afford to lose a couple of \u201cstingy\u201d customers that don\u2019t appreciate your skills anyway? When building her own business, Debbie came to understand just how critical marketing really is, but like most bookkeepers had absolutely no formal training or experience in the field. Over the proceeding ten years (and after a great deal of research, and trial and error), she developed and refined a simple marketing system that consistently delivers new clients.<\/div>\n<h3>The Back Story<\/h3>\n<p>Debbie Roberts knows how you feel. She\u2019s been in the professional bookkeeping game for over 20 years and went through everything you could possibly imagine. Back in 2001, she was about 18 months into her bookkeeping business when it changed forever. She met Peter Cook who had been working a business consultant and coach since the mid-1990s. At that time in her life, Debbie was tearing her hair out. She was full up, working nights and weekends and wanted to grow her business. But, she was nervous about hiring other bookkeepers. She had cleaned up messes left behind by bad bookkeepers and didn\u2019t want to risk her clients and her reputation to someone else. But, she also didn\u2019t want to turn away anyone who needed her help. Then, after meeting Pete at a networking group, they chatted over coffee when he asked, \u201cIf you took the way you do bookkeeping out of your head and put it onto paper as a system and another bookkeeper was following that system, could you trust them then?\u201d At that moment, the Pure Bookkeeping System was born. Pete became Debbie\u2019s coach and over the next decade, she grew her business to the successful, profitable operation with a team of 12 highly skilled bookkeepers who worked for her (She\u2019d later sell her business in 2014). In 2010, Debbie and Pete decided to take what they learned in their journey to form Pure Bookkeeping to help other bookkeepers grow their businesses and that they did in 3 different continents \u2013 Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<h3>What We Know<\/h3>\n<p>We believe normal bookkeepers can do incredible things.
