Wishing you a spook-tastic Halloween!

Content day in downtown 🤩 Stay tuned for some fun, helpful videos coming soon!

You do not have to know every tax rule to make smart decisions for your business. Start with clean books, ask good questions, and bring your tax preparer into the conversation before 2026 wraps up. Check out my blog on this topic for the full 411!

If "I'll log into QuickBooks and get my numbers in order later" has been your strategy this year, later has officially arrived. Now is the time for a clean-up up before tax season -- and I'm here to get it done for you! That way, you can focus on your business and the holiday seasons. Your future self and your CPA will thank you 😀

Captain Dena, reporting for bookkeeping duty! This is proof that conference headshots do not always have to be serious⚓😄

Day one at in was a success! I'm SO grateful to the Accounting & Financial Women's Alliance for the opportunity to attend this conference, speak to like-minded business owners, and re-connect with old friends. I'm not complaining about lunch with this view, either 😉

Stop clicking through the calendar every time you need to change a date. In any date field in QuickBooks Online, click into the field and use your keyboard instead:

• + or - moves the date forward or back one day
• T jumps to today
• W and K jump to the first and last day of the week
• M and H jump to the first and last day of the month
• Y and R jump to the first and last day of the year

This comes in really handy when you're running reports. Need a year-to-date Profit and Loss? Press Y in the start date and R in the end date, and you're done.

Let me take care of the behind-the-scenes books so you can enjoy time that's supposed to belong to *you*! That's one reason why you opened your own business, right?

Next week, I'll be speaking at the 2026 Women Who Count Conference. I'm equal parts nervous and excited 😅

But most of all I'm looking forward to seeing familiar faces, making new connections, and sharing a little bit of knowledge with my peers 📒

If you're an accountant or bookkeeper and feel like you need to sharpen your skills or approach to business, this conference is for you.

Thinking about attending? I can save you a little money:
