Bookkeeping doesn't have to be painful
You set out to be a successful entrepreneur in your chosen field - not an accountant. You're not ready to outsource your bookkeeping so what are your options?
You may think starting with a bookkeeping software is the way to go. But learning complex accounting software is daunting. And honestly, it's easy to make a big mess very quickly.
You might consider ignoring your books completely. But doing so can hinder your business growth and your mental health. Knowing your numbers is one of the most important parts of running a business.
DIY-ing your books just makes sense for you at this stage of your business. But there is a lot about bookkeeping that you don't know, and you're not sure where to start.
Things are about to change!

Hi, I'm Emily — the bookkeeper for growing modern businesses
I am a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) with a passion for systems and organization. I help entrepreneurs gain control of their business financials. I have helped over 800 entrepreneurs DIY their books with my bookkeeping templates!
As a bookkeeper for small businesses, I saw a gap in the market for business owners just starting out. It wasn't time to outsource their bookkeeping yet, but they needed some guidance on how to DIY their books. Enter the Clear Profits program.
Understanding your bookkeeping sets you up for success in your business. Knowing your numbers will guide you in making strategic business decisions. And when it's time to do your taxes or hire a bookkeeper, your data will be clean and organized.
Bookkeeping doesn't have to be overwhelming. You can live your best life with your books in order - and Clear Profits can help!
Clear Profits is not for everyone.
Some small businesses are complex enough to require accounting software and a bookkeeper.
The program is for you if:
✔ Your business tax return is filed on the Form 1040, Schedule C
✔ You are based in the United States
✔ You don't have any W-2 employees in your business
✔ You are a single-member LLC or sole proprietor
✔ You are not taxed as an S-Corp
✔ You run a simple, non-complex business (think: service based, digital products, low inventory)
✔ You want to dig into your own books each month and complete this task
✔ You are ready to learn the bookkeeping basics and just need the perfect tools to become informed & confident in your bookkeeping
The program is NOT for you if:
✖ Your business tax return is filed with a Balance Sheet
✖ You are not based in the United States
✖ You have W-2 employees in your business
✖ You are a partnership, multi-member LLC, or corporation
✖ You are taxed as an S-Corp
✖ You run a complex business model and need detailed reporting (think: high inventory levels, business loans, fixed assets)
✖ You want to hire someone to do your bookkeeping each month (I can help with that!)
✖ You want to spend your time and energy doing other things to grow your business + live your best life
