Deaf or Hearing: Bookkeeping Business...how many of you run it?

I am curious how many of you own a bookkeeping business and how you are doing?

What involves in a typical bookkeeping? Do you use Quickbook or Peachtree?

What software do you use?

I am an expert on Excel Spreadsheets, do excel help your business?

Do you use Access?

Thanks, Jim

Is anyone familiar withNational Deaf Business Institute ? I am hard of hearing and a graduate of NTID, would they be useful for me as I start a new business?

I am starting a bookkeeping business.......

I will be retiring within 2 1/2 years and I want to keep myself busy after I retire. I am planning to work from home. I know every business needs to have a bookkeeping system in place. The crazy thing is that a good bookkeeping system can be a godsend to the business owner. My accounting skills and eye for detail can turn natural ability into a bookkeeping profession when starting a bookkeeping business. As I wrote in my blog on July 12th July 12 blog, With my accounting experience (30 combined years), I will give my complete attention to someone's business who needs to be on the top of the bookkeeper’s priority list. Their business financial will be impeccable only if I as a bookkeeper is focused on getting things done the right way.

I live in Upper Arlington, Ohio and hoping to find a small business who is looking for a bookkeeper. I won't be expensive since I already have a income so my rate will be lower than most bookkeepers in the area.

I have a name that I came up with. I have gone to one seminar so far. I am going to "start a business" seminar later this week (Thursday).

I have a good accounting experience and I need to refresher on bookkeeping since I have not done bookkeeping since in the late 1980's when I volunteered for a few non-profit organizations.

Thinking of my retirement in a few years

Home business ideas for after-retirement. The ability to work from home, create a fantastic income and spend that precious time with our family would have been an easy choice.

I am an accounting who is eligible to retire within a few years is considering starting-up a home-based bookkeeping service or help another bookkeeper. Small business bookkeepers and accountants have worked from their home offices for years. The average small-business bookkeeping for one client is $100-$300 per month with just 6-8 hours each month.
