Pricing. Discovery calls. Onboarding. The real work in QuickBooks. How to talk to clients — and even how to build your website. I've run my own firm for five years. Now I teach other bookkeepers exactly how I did it.
From picking bookkeeping as a career to landing your first clients, working the books in QuickBooks, full client walkthroughs, and recording payroll from the big providers. Watch at your own pace, as many times as you want.
26 lessons across 6 sections, about 4 hr 34 min.

This isn't theory. These are the exact things I do in my own business every week, broken down so you can do them too.
Flat monthly rates that actually profit. Stop guessing at hourly.
Turn a first conversation into a paying client without feeling salesy.
Get a new client set up clean, fast, and stress-free from day one.
Month-end, cleanups, and the real monthly workflow — done right.
Set boundaries, communicate well, and keep clients for years.
Look legit, get found, and let the right clients come to you.
Capped under 10 people on purpose. Everyone gets airtime. No lurking in a 200-person Zoom.
We start by going around. Each person shares what they got done last week. Momentum compounds when you say it out loud.
Bring anything — pricing, a tough client, a tech-stack question, an offer you're building. No question is too basic.
Stuck? We put your business on the screen and work it out live. You leave with a concrete next move.
Every call is recorded, and members get the full library of past calls. Included in Weekly Group Coaching and Coaching + Community
The entire playbook in one book. How I went from zero clients to a calm, profitable firm — pricing, first clients, the monthly work, hiring, and getting your time back. Real numbers. Real mistakes. Real lessons. Read it in an afternoon, use it for years.
Also included in the Resource Library.
Plug-and-play references and templates from my own firm. Get all of them in the Resource Library, or buy any one on its own.
My e-book plus the cheat sheets and templates I use in my firm, all in one purchase.
The full playbook, from zero clients to a calm, profitable firm.
Discovery calls, onboarding, software stack, tax rules, and quoting from QuickBooks.
The step-by-step monthly workflow I use to deliver consistent books.
Scope of work, payment terms, confidentiality, and how either side can end it.
One-on-one calls aren't part of any membership. If you want to talk through your specific situation, book a 30-minute strategy call. Bring your biggest question, leave with a plan.
I started Wenonah Bookkeeping in 2021. Five years later it runs around 60 clients and $270K a year — in about 30 hours a week. I live in South Jersey with my wife and our four kids.
COVID taught me a hard lesson: as an employee, I didn't have control. So I built a business to take it back — and built it to fit around my life, not run it.
Now I help other bookkeepers build the same thing: a calm, profitable business, one client at a time.
