The back-office solution for accounting & bookkeeping firms!
Since 1979 Universal Accounting Center (UAC) has committed to helping accounting firms evolve profitably and remain competitive. Whether it is getting more clients, offering quality services or working efficiently we continue to say: “If it’s about accounting, it’s Universal.” For this reason, Roger Knecht, president of UAC is excited to work with Veronica Wasek to offer the Virtual Bookkeeper’s Roadmap program. (See related UAC & Virtual Bookkeeper’s Roadmap press release)
How to Start a Virtual Bookkeeping Business
When building a successful virtual accounting and bookkeeping, and/or tax business there are three stages. Each is an evolution that most can identify with. For some, it begins working with clients on the side, a supplemental income. Perhaps they are friends or family or just those asking for help. At some point, it moves from being a favor to a serious endeavor. For others, the need to take on clients was necessary, a way to do more of what they love but also a viable way to bring in a much-needed income. For others, this is the life long dream of having their own firm, being their own boss, helping business owners.
Regardless of your story and motivation, you own an accounting business offering valuable services to business owners. Of all the hats you wear there are three key areas of the business that you cannot fully delegate, we refer to this as MAPPING the business. The ultimate goal, in time, is to move you towards running a self-sustaining, independent business.
This Journey is a Turnkey Process to help you have the Premier Accounting Firm. Simply put we focus on 3 areas of the business that when done right help you get paid what you are worth:

The ultimate goal is to offer the services your accounting clients expect as their Profit & Growth Expert. As you confidently market and sell your services, taking on your ideal clients you’ll find that working again can be fun.
If you are wondering how to start a virtual accounting business, we have the answer. To ensure you are working efficiently and profitably we offer The Virtual Bookkeeper’s Roadmap program as the “PRODUCTION” solution you need. This was designed by Veronica Wasek CPA to teach the best practices when it comes to the back-office workflow and to become a virtual bookkeeper. Providing clients quality information and reports is great but do you find yourself:
Working too many hours to take care of your clients
Working nights and weekends
Not having time for yourself, for family and friends
Honestly, when was your last vacation or holiday
If you have the clients you need, love what you are doing but believe there is a better way to do the work this is the program for you. Whether you are a solo-entrepreneur doing all the work or have a staff of a few or many this program is designed to standardize your workflow putting into place procedures you can trust. Veronica said it best:
There are hundreds of tools to choose from. You could spend years and thousands of dollars building your business only to find out that you’ve been working against yourself in an inefficient system. It’s like driving with the brakes on! You can never get that time back.”
“After developing my own bookkeeping workflow and investing well over $100K systematizing and growing my own virtual bookkeeping business, I’m ready to share my insider knowledge and experience with you. Are you ready to master your bookkeeping workflows and build the business of your dreams without all the bumps and bruises?”
