Welcome to Financial Chit Chat with Lozelle: A massage therapist from Oregon ask – should I use an accounting software for my new massage therapy business?

Being a business owner is one of the most rewarding jobs in the world, but it’s not for the faint of heart. There is no instruction manual to run your company. It requires research, stamina, support, and confidence.

Too many people don’t understand the sacrifices, responsibilities, and risks they’re making when they take on a side hustle. It could be a financial disaster very, very fast. Just because it’s a side gig doesn’t mean that you don’t still have to do a lot of the same structure as a real business.
Extra income very literally comes at a cost. That’s not to say that you’re doing anything wrong, but there are tax considerations that you should know about sooner rather than later.
Your budget is just comprised of pieces of information that you already have. This is a process of helping you put it together in a meaningful way.
I’ll walk you through the basics in 5 easy steps.
