One of the first things I did was get QuickBooks. I haven’t sold anything yet but I knew from your book and others that this was an important first step. Thanks for the great content.
Where can I get ur book and her book
I already made my own version of quickbooks in google docs. to save money. It took me 30 minutes to create all the formulas and attach the pages together. After using the online quickbooks do you think that its worth the money or should I continue using my own books?
This video just separated tho hobby farm from the market gardener NICE!
I love the long format, and definitely enjoy the tips and tricks. Have you been using tend.ag? If so, I would be really interested in an interview depth dive similar to this video with QuickBooks.
You must have ESP. Every time I have a question pertaining to farming, or the business thereof, your video answering or at least addressing the issue is uploaded within 20 hours. It's creepy, but I'm kinda ok with it.
Thank you!!!!
I was just promoting her book at our last farmers institute meeting 🙂
LOLOLOLOL I guess I should wait until the end before commenting. Sorry. I will head over to Ms Julia's webinars.
I am in the process of getting in to farming, a newbee. Can you maybe have a session with either Ms. Julia, or someone else, to show us newbees how we should get started with our business / bookkeeping / etc…, or maybe guide us to a good resource for further information.
Thank you.
if you leave it to the end of the week, and then to the end of the month, then you are drinking more than one or two bourbons, (maybe the entire bottle from the stress, LOL)…
Great content Curtis, this gave me the kick in the ass that I needed.
Curtis I have a question. Are you better off doing your bookkeeping first thing in the morning rather than at night when your tired from the day? I could see that you could be more accurate in the morning over a cup of coffee rather than at night when fatigue could be a factor affecting your memory.
I have been following Curtis & was excited to see this Video as I run a Virtual Bookkeeping business and have begun to Specialize in service for growers. Everything she is saying is so accurate and can make a business tremendously profitable when practiced.
I bought Curtis' book off Amazon and it was a great read. I am definitely going to use many of his ideas this year.
Curtis……you are awesome
Nice job and video! A wake up call for me, as well! I keep the numbers running in my head all year, but tax time always kicks my ass! For one thing I need to do a end of year review, before the end of the year!!! What I was thinking was enough was not enough. It took me a Damn long time to get to this point, but I need to utilize what I can.
Yeah, I have a small business, just me, and I work from home. I don't like doing invoices and taxes, so I set up the spread sheet to easily track everything so it moves towards invoices and tax time. Doing my year end for taxes takes maybe an hour, including double checking. I know other people doing the same thing who are still adding invoices by hand, for some reason. Not a very techy area. It's not hard to add things into the spreadsheet to track profitability. It's nice having almost instant results whenever I want them.
Thank you very very much. cheers
http://www.juliashanks.com/video-tutorials/ Here is a link to one of her Video Tutorials & Webinars. I would not recommend bourbon prior to watching them though.
Very useful man, thank you !
This was a great video, Curtis! I found it very helpful, even though I ran a business before (and I'm a nut for detail and a bit OCD, which helps in business actually). Julia seems like a great gal & very knowledgeable. Thanks for sharing!
Did she just say $10 for every 2 hours invested ????!?!!! making $5 per hour.
Great video. I would love to see a playlist of things related to business admin stuff like this.
This is a really informative video
Curtis you mentioned tax on food is "exempt" but its actually "zero-rated", not exempt. Both are 0% tax though.
What was the name of the book an who the publisher
Julia I just bought your book. I have a quick question if you have time. Do I need two separate quickbook pro desktop programs if I have a full time job and a ranch?
How are these farmers paying their taxes if they don't have their accounting books??? Don't you need a registered business name to be a market farmer?
