There's no shame in DIY bookkeeping - but is it still working for you?

At some point, what once worked starts to cost you more than it saves - in time, stress, and missed opportunities.

If you're nodding along to any of these signs, it might be time to hand it off to someone who does this all day.

I'm Ashley, and I help solo business owners and nonprofits in PA (and nationwide) finally get a handle on their books, so you can have the peace of mind your books are handled with expertise.

Happy 1st Birthday to Tally Bean Bookkeeping!

Last year I took an entrepreneurial leap of faith.

The highlight reel includes:
- 5 cleanup projects completed
- Over 100 social media posts
- 8 new recurring clients onboarded
- 5, 5-star Google reviews
- 2 onsite client visits
- Serving small business owners and nonprofits in 7 different states nationwide, including 3 within my local PA community

What you didn’t see:
- many long nights after my kids went to bed
- countless hours of educational training
- overthinking why a potential client ghosted me
- self doubt when showing up on social media
- lack of confidence initially even though I had over a decade of educational and corporate accounting experience
- calling my twin sister wondering why I didn’t have a new client in 3 months
- the Mom guilt when working

Many times we only see the highlight reel so this is me being real and showing that building something takes work, it takes consistency, and it takes believing in yourself.

I’m grateful to all my clients for trusting me, the people I've connected with on social media, and also for the support of my family - they’re my biggest supporters and Tally Bean hype squad. You all know who you are ❤️

One year in and I’m proud of the way I’m serving clients. More importantly, I’m proud of the way I’ve structured my business to serve me in this season of life.

Cheers to year 2!

A small business’s books hadn’t been looked at in over 2 years.

They had no idea if their business was actually profitable. No idea if they were pricing their services accurately.

Here’s what I found:
Missed payroll tax payments they didn’t know about.
Expenses that had been bleeding money for months that nobody noticed.
Large fees from payment processors which were taking their profits.

The value I delivered?
Real clarity on where the business actually stood.
A plan to catch up with the IRS before it became a bigger problem.
Expenses we could cut immediately to improve their margins.

Two years of avoidance. Cleaned up. Done.

This is exactly why I do what I do. You can’t make good decisions about your business if you don’t know your numbers.

Business isn’t static. It’s ever changing - every time you land a new client, have a personal life change, or pivot your goals.

Most people think a bookkeeper is just for data entry or only for tax season.

But the real value? It’s the human on the other end of the line.

It’s having a professional partner you can actually talk to when:
- You have a “What does this mean?” moment
- Your business hits a growth spurt
- You need to close the laptop and just be “Mom” or “Dad”

Partner up with someone who values the human behind the business. (Link in bio)

Navigate to the Gear Icon > Audit Log.

This is helpful for yourself but also if you have an assistant, a partner, or a linked app making changes. The Audit Log identifies exactly who performed the action and when.

If a balance looks "off" suddenly, this is the detective tool that finds the culprit!

My favorite coworkers are usually my 5 cats and a hot pot of medium roast coffee. But this month, I traded the remote life for a client site visit. I got a behind-the-scenes look at a local non-profit food bank, meeting the team and experiencing the daily operations firsthand.

What I learned:
- You can provide trust and credibility by making that effort to be there in person
- If you have a local client, going the extra step can show you care about their business or mission

Now when I sit at home to do their books, I better understand their workflow and can connect the operations to the end financials. This introvert is admitting the "peopling" was worth it!

ps - I need to get better at taking pictures while I’m “peopling”

Q1 is almost in the books!

Friendly reminder: Your first quarterly tax payment for 2026 is due April 15th. Most business owners spend the first two weeks of April in a panic. But when your bookkeeping is intentional and up-to-date, April 15th is just another Wednesday. Knowing your real-time profit means no underpayment penalties and no accidental "loans" to the government from overpaying.

If you're thinking 2026 is the year you want to hand off your small business or nonprofit bookkeeping, DM me to schedule a discovery call.
