I've got experience with this, gotta say: hiring a junior accountant depends on a few factors. Gather the data first don't make emotional decisions.

bro let's be real most business owners make the wrong choice in these situations. be careful, hasty decisions often end in regret.

another perspective: maybe the real issue with hiring a bookkeeper is something else entirely. think about it...

Good call starting this thread. Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

My questions are cleared up, thanks. The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

Solutions that work at a small scale collapse when you grow; I learned this late. Hope this helps.

I'm a small business, let me explain from my side. Taking notes for two weeks yields better results than a six-month estimate.

When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place. Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

Let me share what happened to me; it might be useful. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

You're right, I've been down that road too. If you get three different answers on a topic the question was asked wrong.

Don't miss this: Processes without records never improve, because you don't know what to fix.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

Let's separate the concepts, they're getting mixed up. Don't enter any agreement without an exit plan.

Good luck with that.

my perspective changed after experiencing that. tbh when we decide without measuring we always end up in the same place.

if you post the result here, it will help others too.

Good luck with that.

You're right. Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right.
