Question –Could I do this on my own-

 Answer – Yes. Potentially you could do this on your own. There is a lot of information freely available on the internet, however, you would need to know where to look and our information is specifically written for the bookkeeping industry.

 We have over 20 years combined experience running our own successful  Bookkeeping businesses.

 By using our proven information and systems you would be at least 2 years ahead in business, than you would be trying to do it on your own.

 

Question – Do I use the Bookkeeping Biz in a Box name?

 

Answer – No you don’t. 

 Unlike a franchise, there is no common name that you would use. 

 Also, unlike a franchise you don’t keep paying for the privilege of using the name for the rest of your business life.

Part of the licence package is a session with our marketing expert, who will help you choose a name if you haven’t already done so.

 Question – Is Bookkeeping Biz in a Box licence expensive?

Answer – Compared to most bookkeeping franchises it is a very inexpensive way of getting all the information to help you survive in your first critical year. 

 Once you compare the costs you will be more than pleasantly surprised at the saving you will make compared to a franchise.

 

Question – So if it costs less, can it be as good as a franchise system?

 Answer –  Yes it can.  There are quite a few bookkeeping and accounting franchises are available, and many of them are very good.

 However, most franchisees become disenchanted after a few years when they no longer need the help and support that they needed in the first critical period.

 When we decided to setup Bookkeeping Biz in a Box, we spent 18 months developing the concept, that way we took the parts that we felt were valuable and did not include the parts of a franchise that people come to resent after a while.

 The result, you can get the same systems and information that you would buying a franchise, but for a fraction of the cost!

 

 Question – What if I feel that I need the extra ongoing mentoring and support that a franchise provides?

 Answer –  We felt that 3 months support is enough to give you the concepts and information to build a successful bookkeeping business.

However, we are aware that some people prefer to have the ongoing mentoring and support and we have thought of that.  After your initial 3 months, you can continue to receive support for a small monthly fee.

However there is no expectation and it is not mandatory.  If you do decide to continue with the ongoing mentoring and support, you can stop it at any time.

 

Question – Why do you have different packages?

Answer – We realise everybody has a different budget when starting a business and therefore the 3 different packages were created that way you could decided how much or how little information and support you need to help you start your business.

 

 We feel the Platinum Package will give you the best possible start in your new bookkeeping .

 The face to face training is invaluable as you many extra tips and tricks from people who have been there and done it all, and individually created two successful businesses.

 You continue to get the ongoing mentoring and support for 3 months after the training, to help guide you through the initial daunting first few months of starting a business.

 The marketing package included in the Platinum Package was created to give you the best marketing start in your business.

 A professional image is important when dealing with other businesses, and some bookkeepers start with no business card or the home made cards created and printed on a inkjet printer and in this day and age a website is becoming a necessity not a luxury for businesses if you want to appear serious.

 We have created a package at a discounted price that will give you everything you need to get started marketing straight away.

 

Question – A Francise guarantees me leads?

 Answer –  Yes they do, but at a ongoing marketing costs and usually not sufficient on their own for you to build a business.

 

You will still need to do your own marketing in the beginning and that is what you will learn in the Bookkeeping Biz in a Box License.

 

Question –I could buy an already established business and have guaranteed clients?

 

Answer – Yes you could buy an established business. 

 

This is no doubt a viable option and you can get your new business up and running a lot quicker than starting from scratch.

 

However, this option is more expensive and no guarantee that the clients you purchase will continue to use your services after you have paid for them. 

 

With a Bookkeeping Biz in a Box license you learn how to attract your own clients use various marketing techniques
