When you engage a bookkeeper, you are paying for a solution to your problem

That doesn’t necessarily mean that you need (or want) a bookkeeper – you just want the bookeeping work done. So how does that relate to leaking pipes?

Recently we discovered a leak in our mains water supply – we had been paying for water that we hadn’t been using, and were totally unaware of the leak until some work was being carried out in the front yard. So we called a plumber who was more than happy to attend to this problem.

Guess what? We didn’t want a plumber, what we wanted was a solution to our problem of leaking pipes, because we didn’t know how to fix the problem ourselves. When you engage a bookkeeper, you are paying for a solution to your problem – you are paying for skills, knowledge and expertise.

Five minutes work and $160 later, we no longer had a leaking pipe! The next time we had a leaking pipe, guess what? We didn’t call out the plumber, we just went down to the local hardware store and purchased similar accessories that the plumber used to fix the first leak, and fifteen minutes later the job was fixed for around $25 dollars (plus our time)

When you employ a bookkeeper (whether full-time, part-time or as a subcontractor), you are paying for their expertise as well as their skills, just as we paid for the plumber’s knowledge and we learned from watching him.

You can watch and learn form your bookkeeper. You can even get your bookkeeper to teach you the necessary skills to do the bookwork, if that’s what you want. Or you can decide to focus on what you do best and let the bookkeeper do what s/he does best
