I have been doing research on this subject, and for four days I keep finding sites that are supposed to have what I am looking for, only to be disappointed with the lack of what I needed. I wish I would have located your web-site sooner! I had about 25% of what I needed and your site has that, and the rest of what I needed to complete my research. Thank you and I will report back on how it goes! Finally, I located the information I was looking for.

It seems I've been asked questions similar to this one several times lately. So that must mean it's time to write an article surrounding this topic! So keep on the watch for an article specifically about how to get your business set up legally and so that you don't get into trouble, or run into a nasty tax surprise next April. I'll post it for you within the next couple weeks or so. Great question, Jeanne!

I've been doing the books for my husbands small business for 10 years and would like to go into some freelance work. My question is more about how do I need to set myself up legally like a DBA and tax numbers,reporting income etc. I want to keep this as small and hassle free as I can. Could you talk a little about that end of things? Thanks, Jeanne This is great info for me as well.

There are A LOT of opportunities for freelance bookkeepers! And I hope that you will find the information on this blog in the coming weeks and months helpful in your exploration. As far as office machines, you can start off with just the basics, or none at all, depending on how you want to start your business. If you will go to your clients' offices to do their bookkeeping (a popular option for many new bookkeepers), you can use their equipment. But if you will be doing client work from your own home office, you can start off with a good computer (PC), QuickBooks software (I suggest you get the Premier Accountant Edition, if you can afford it), a printer, and of course, an adding machine. Many bookkeepers use their cell phone as their main business telephone number, at least in the beginning. Of course, these are just the bare bone basics. I'll be providing more detailed information in a future post, so stay tuned! Great question. Thanks for asking it. Hi Melanie!
