182: Setting Yourself Up for Financial Success with Crystalynn Shelton
I’m going to be honest with you dear listener. The topic of this week’s episode is a skill that I would say is NOT in my zone of genius. That’s why I was so excited to sit down with Crystalynn Shelton so I could pick her brain about all things business finance.
Crystalynn is a licensed CPA, small business advisor, and a QuickBooks Top 100 ProAdvisor specializing in financial accounting software training, coaching, and consulting. Crystalynn was so so generous with her extensive knowledge of bookkeeping, I know anyone listening to this interview will pick up some useful tips and tricks.
In this episode, we discussed:

How you can budget for a CPA
The financial "fear factors" in a business
Steps you can implement today to contribute to long-term financial success
The easiest and most beneficial ways to automate your business's finances
