EP322: Andrew Wall - Why Continuous Learning Is Vital For Your Bookkeeping Business

“There are plenty of fish in the sea, and by helping the
people in my community, that’s going to raise the tide, which is
going to rise all ships.”


-Andrew Wall
 
Adapting to change is never easy. What we plan for versus what
actually happens are often wildly different and can leave us
feeling like we don’t really understand what we’re doing at all.
Making plans and business building become much better when we
shift our thinking from a mindset of having to be right about
everything, to being open to learning anything.
 
Automated services may be slowly replacing traditional
bookkeeping functions, but this isn’t anything to fear. When you
figure out what value you are able to bring to the table, your
business will no longer be about compliance and meeting
deadlines, but a business that lets you forecast the future to
keep your clients on the cutting edge.
 
Time spent worrying about whether you’ll have clients or not is
wasted in the face of recognizing only you can do what you can
do. When you’re passionate and love what you do, there is no
other end result than learning, growing and becoming an expert in
your field or niche.
