Description

💸 Cash + Coaches = Chaos?

Sometimes bookkeeping questions aren’t about how to record… but why the heck it happened in the first place.

Here’s the hot take from this week’s Bookkeepers on Fire 🎙️🔥:

🚨 Red Flags Everywhere – Paying a “business coach” in cash? No invoice? No W9? Yeah… sketchy.

💼 Bookkeepers ≠ Police – Our job is to record, advise, and guide. Not cuff clients for bad decision.

💡 Transform, Don’t Tattle – The win is coaching clients toward smarter choices (not letting them spiral into IRS nightmares).

👉 Bottom line: You record the transaction, you flag the concern, and you keep the sparkle of professionalism alive. ✨
