What I have seen through my years as a Bookkeeping Mentor: someone decides to start a bookkeeping business and immediately panics about what to offer. Payroll? Job costing? CFO services? Inventory management?
Have you Googled "will AI replace bookkeepers" lately? Be honest — I think we all have at some point. I know I did, and what I found wasn't all doom and gloom, but it wasn't the hype you see on LinkedIn either.
