Bookkeeping Training For
DIY Business Owners
If you’re a business owner who wants to understand your finances, stay organized, and stop being stressed every time tax season hits… this training was made for you.
This is NOT a course
This is a Personalized Bookkeeping Training built around how your business actually runs.
Does this sound familiar?
You’re a growing business owner who wants to do your own bookkeeping (for now or long-term)
You’re unsure if your financial numbers are accurate
Your bookkeeping software feels overwhelming or half set up
You’re tired of Googling “how to do this in QuickBooks”
Your business has outgrown the current way you do financial tracking
You value learning things the right way instead of patching problems later
You’re invoicing and collecting money, but not confidently tracking it or know what your expenses are
You want a bookkeeping system that works monthly, quarterly, and makes tax time easy
You want control of your bookkeeping, but don’t know the right system or workflow
Get your bookkeeping system set up from start to finish and step by step training using your real accounts, not examples.
Meet Abena,
Your Guide to Confident Bookkeeping

I founded Aurrera Consulting, to help solo and small business owners gain clarity and confidence in their numbers.

My approach is practical, judgment free, and focused on helping you truly understand your numbers so you can run your business with confidence.
