but when I was unlimited rate I started at 9 dollars per hour
[3]
and the number of hours you work depends on you
[7]
and depends on what you do
[9]
okay home mates
[10]
we have a good video again today
[12]
I will share a new skill with you
[14]
that you can be a work from home or online jobs
[17]
I have many clients who hire this position
[21]
on freelancing websites
[23]
okay ka-home mates
[24]
maam jenneth is with us now
[26]
because she is the expert here in bookkeeping
[29]
so maam jenneth let's start right away
[32]
what is your work or do you do as a bookkeeper
[36]
as a bookkeeper
[38]
we are preparing a financial report for our clients
[44]
or you can create their invoices
[48]
create their bills
[51]
record their expenses related to their sales
[54]
that is the overview as a bookkeeper
[57]
it's like you're making a report
[59]
it is more on numbers
[61]
and you will analyze transactions
[64]
you will identify
[66]
which is expenses
[67]
which is revenue
[69]
so you can prepare a financial report
[72]
okay maam jenneth
[73]
in that kind of work, how much is the salary range
[76]
like from beginner
[77]
when you are just starting
[79]
until now you have been in that work for a long time
[81]
salary range maam?
[83]
okay, when I started
[85]
my salary started at 20 thousand
[88]
the fixed rate
[89]
that means it is a full time
[91]
but when I was unli rate
[93]
I set 5 dollars per hour
[95]
and then the number of hours you will work
[98]
depends on you
[99]
and depends on what you will do
[101]
now, that we have been in this business for a long time
[104]
if you really have that experience
[106]
you can earn up to 200 thousand pesos a month
[110]
okay maam jenneth
[112]
that's your work, there are numbers
[115]
is that required to the client or in that kind of work?
[118]
graduated in accounting?
[120]
or bookkeeping course
[125]
that's a very good question
[127]
because
[128]
that's one of the myths of bookkeepers
[132]
they said the bookkeeper had to be an accounting graduate
[135]
which is a big no
[137]
because the bookkeeper doesn't need to be an accountancy graduate
[141]
because a bookkeeper
[143]
you don鈥檛 have to study all the ins and outs of accounting
[148]
you are a bookkeeper
[149]
which deals more on
[151]
data entry
[152]
and recording transactions
[154]
and analyzing
[155]
because accounting is a different level
[157]
if asked
[159]
if required to be an accountancy graduate
[160]
it's not
[161]
if you have knowledge about basic bookkeeping
[164]
debit, credit
[165]
and you know the
[168]
expenses
[169]
revenue
[170]
you know how to categorize
[172]
you know how to identify
[174]
which are the bills
[175]
which are the expenses
[176]
then you can start your bookkeeping career
[180]
that's good
[182]
the hearts of the viewers were enlivened
[185]
because accounting is not required
[187]
but ma'am jenneth
[188]
but that is advantage
[191]
if you finished accounting
[193]
or bookkeeping
[194]
it has a big advantage
[195]
yes it is a big advantage
[197]
because you already have knowledge about accounting
[199]
you already know the ins and outs of bookkeeping
[203]
clients maybe sometimes
[206]
maybe there are clients
[208]
that prefers graduated
[209]
maybe there is
[211]
maybe there are also some that they no longer require
[215]
good you mentioned
[217]
because
[218]
when it comes to clients
[220]
they don't really care if you graduate in accountancy
[226]
what they are looking at is the result that you can deliver
[229]
because based on my experience
[232]
I have met many clients
[235]
throughout the way as a bookkeeper
[238]
I think out of 10
[240]
only two asked what course I graduated
[243]
but the rest
[244]
they didn鈥檛 ask if I was a graduate
[247]
what course do I graduate
[249]
if accountancy
[249]
if I have knowledge about bookkeeping
[251]
what they immediately ask me
[253]
what is the result that you can deliver
[255]
can you do this in the job description?
[259]
if your answer is yes
[260]
you can deliver it
[261]
and you can prove to your prospect client
[265]
that you can do
[266]
then you have a good chance of being hired
[269]
even you don't have a degree in accounting
[273]
it's amazing, ka-home mates, right?
[275]
actually not just like that
[277]
even in other jobs
[279]
the result is really important
[282]
you can do something
[284]
you will be hired without asking what degree did you finish
[287]
but I didn't expect in bookkeeping
[289]
it's the same
[290]
there are lots of clients that
[293]
are not asking what you finished
[295]
but is there an accounting position in online jobs
[300]
there is also, right?
[301]
yes, it has.
[302]
they are called accountants
[306]
we have bookkeeper
[307]
there is also an accountant
[309]
and also CPA
[310]
the difference of the three
[312]
the bookkeeper is more on data entry
[316]
but it also analyzes
[318]
enters expenses
[320]
revenues in accounting software of the client
[324]
the account can be a bookkeeper
[328]
the accountant has a degree in accounting
[331]
to be called an accountant
[334]
then
[335]
the CPA
[336]
Certified Public Accountant
[338]
an accounting graduate
[340]
who passed the board
[342]
what the CPA does
[343]
he is the one who audits what the accountant and bookkeeper do
[348]
the rest of us just found out about it
[351]
so accountants, and CPAs
[353]
are often required a degree by the client
[357]
maybe that's often, right?
[359]
yes, exactly
[362]
bookkeeper sometimes it requires degree but many do not
[365]
that's true
[366]
so if you have no experience
[370]
and want to try bookkeeping
[372]
just try it
[372]
you will not know
[374]
there is nothing wrong with trying
[376]
okay ka-home mates and Ma'am Jenneth
[378]
let's explore your work a bit more
[381]
because we want viewers to picture your work
[387]
because ma'am said data entry
[389]
will put expenses and income
[391]
that it ka-home mates
[394]
let's talk about that a bit Ma'am Jenneth
[397]
let's just expand a bit in layman's term
[400]
in your work
[402]
Let's take it one by one so that viewers can comprehend
[405]
so let's start with data entry
[408]
income and expense
[410]
let's start with income
[411]
of course with income
[412]
salary, right?
[413]
all of that salary
[415]
what kind of client salary do we put there?
[419]
or what kind of income, like that
[421]
it depends
[423]
in bookkeeping
[425]
there are many industries you can enter
[428]
we have construction
[430]
education
[431]
real estate
[433]
e-commerce
[434]
drop shipping
[435]
everything
[436]
so just imagine
[438]
there are different companies here in the Philippines
[440]
right?
[440]
the same goes for bookkeeping
[442]
it depends on your future client
[445]
if your client is an e-commerce business owner
[449]
the income you will record
[452]
his sales using his shopee pay or amazon account
[457]
if here in the Philippines
[459]
this is what we call Lazada
[461]
and Shopee
[463]
like that
[464]
you will record how much he earned that day
[468]
on that website
[471]
it is like
[473]
so it is called data entry
[474]
because you will put to the accounting software the data and income
[479]
yes that is right
[480]
what went in there in his bank
[483]
you will have an access to his accounting software
[485]
you can see how much came in
[487]
how much came out
[489]
so what came in are possible income
[492]
you will record what kind of income is that
[495]
so ka-home mates
[496]
the reason why it calls data entry
[498]
how about expenses
[500]
let's give an example
[501]
how do you record or what are the recorded expenses
[505]
if the income is coming in
[507]
the expenses are out of the bank
[509]
we have many kinds of expenses
[512]
but in online bookkeeping
[514]
common there is the software they use
[517]
similar to communicating with another client
[522]
or another person
[524]
we have zoom
[525]
they are paying for a subscription
[527]
they are paying the subscription on their amazon or shopee pay account
[534]
or Skype
[535]
they pay for all that
[537]
like Google
[538]
they are advertising using Facebook
[541]
Google
[542]
all that will be recorded
[544]
that's an example of expenses
[546]
there are also food-related expenses
[550]
that your client got into running the business
[555]
so that's what we call food and beverages
[558]
or sometimes called meals and entertainment
[562]
just to be easy
[564]
if you have a bank
[566]
something came in and something came out
[568]
it came out what did you buy?
[571]
you will just record it
[572]
I brought bread and I will record it
[574]
bread and how much
[577]
that's it ka-home mates
[578]
it is well explained by Maam Jenneth
[580]
the expense
[582]
how much the exact amount
[583]
how much the exact pay
[585]
you will record it
[586]
in simple words, you will type it in their software
[591]
what is an invoice that you are doing, Maam Jenneth?
[596]
okay
[598]
an invoice
[600]
is ready for accounting software
[603]
you will just encode it
[605]
what kind of product that the customer brought
[610]
what kind of services that you render for your client
[616]
is it clear ? or not?
[619]
is that the receipt?
[620]
yes it is a receipt
[623]
if you have the receipt you will record the invoice number
[626]
and price
[627]
actually the invoice number
[629]
it is automated by a system
[631]
what you will enter is
[634]
that the kind of product that the customer brought or services that you render
[639]
that's it
[639]
and how much the amount
[640]
and then that's it
[642]
you will send to his client
[644]
and that what they call invoicing
[648]
okay Ma'am Jenneth
[649]
in the bookkeeping or bookkeeper
[651]
what is your schedule?
[654]
is it a flexible time?
[656]
or is it full time? 9-5 hours
[658]
how is your work schedule as a bookkeeper
[661]
me? as a bookkeeper
[663]
my schedule is flexible
[665]
that means
[667]
any time and day I can do it
[669]
as long as
[671]
I can deliver the result at the time he wants or on the due date he wants
[678]
is it monthly?
[680]
you are preparing a report monthly
[682]
and weekly you are working for your clients
[685]
yes
[686]
I work weekly with the client
[687]
and then the report
[689]
there is a client who asks weekly
[691]
there is a client who asks monthly
[693]
so it depends on the client
[695]
I have a client that is weekly
[696]
so it means
[698]
for that client, I need to be able to submit every Friday
[701]
similar today
[702]
the report
[703]
and then I get paid weekly
[706]
the is a client that is monthly
[708]
but that monthly, I do it every day
[711]
so that I will not be overwhelmed with work
[714]
because it is also difficult when you record too many transactions
[717]
then you only do it once a month
[719]
it is hard
[720]
you need to manage your time every day
[723]
but a bookkeeper is very flexible
[726]
but
[727]
it still depends
[729]
because there are clients who want you to be full time
[733]
it means
[734]
you will only work for him
[736]
there is also a part time
[738]
which means
[738]
this time
[739]
for example
[740]
8 PM night until 12 AM
[745]
you have to work for him
[747]
we have what is called a freelance
[749]
that's the type of my schedule
[752]
because since I'm a freelancer, the client doesn't hold my time
[757]
I hold my time
[758]
Ma'am Jenneth
[759]
Are most of them long-term clients?
[762]
or per project?
[763]
like once a month
[764]
or once in two months, you will only have a project with him
[767]
what is that? Is it continuous or just per project?
[770]
okay
[771]
since bookkeeping is in demand
[774]
and the business owner really needs to see
[776]
what is his status when it comes to finances
[783]
there are clients who will hire you for one year
[787]
or there is also per project
[791]
it means
[792]
once you finish this month
[794]
it is finished
[795]
so you need to find someone else
[798]
so that's how it is
[799]
there is ongoing
[801]
that is called ongoing client
[803]
and there is also
[805]
per project client
[807]
Okay Ma'am Jenneth
[808]
we're doing data entry in that kind of work
[810]
you are inputting data and expenses on the software of the client
[815]
what software does the client usually use in such bookkeeping?
[819]
or as a bookkeeper?
[821]
okay
[822]
if you are a bookkeeper
[823]
it is better if you know the Xero
[826]
and Quickbooks
[828]
that's the common two
[829]
they are common in bookkeeping
[832]
and then additional software
[834]
it is better if you have knowledge about A2X and InventoryLab
[839]
you know how to access Amazon and Shopee pay
[843]
if it is an e-commerce business
[845]
but the most common
[847]
are Xero and QuickBooks
[849]
so that Xero and QuickBooks
[851]
give us a short description
[855]
what is that software for?
[857]
Xero and Quickbooks are both accounting software
[861]
where all your client's accounting data
[865]
you will record there
[867]
it is like the software organizes the finances or income expenses of your client
[875]
in one folder
[878]
or one software
[880]
so that's it
[882]
so when the client goes to the software, he will see the report immediately
[888]
he can access it immediately
[890]
and make your recording easier
[893]
which means
[894]
you will just enter and the software will create an entry
[898]
the bookkeeper鈥檚 job is easier when using accounting software
[903]
okay ka home mates, that's it
[904]
a very quick description
[906]
that software is used by bookkeepers and clients
[910]
to enter income, expenses, etc.
[914]
so Maam Jenneth has full tutorials
[918]
about Xero and Quickbooks
[921]
and other accounting software
[923]
home mates, if you want to learn about that
[925]
if you are interested
[927]
Maam Jenneth said that
[929]
not required to be an accounting graduate
[932]
or maybe even without experience
[934]
learn about it
[935]
go to Maam Jenneth's channel
[937]
search her tutorial about Xero and Quickbooks
[941]
and other accounting software
[943]
check on Maam Jenneth's youtube channel
[946]
Maam Jenneth what is often required by clients
[949]
for example, you are applying
[951]
they replied to you
[953]
or to their job posting
[955]
what are their frequent requirements?
[958]
first, what skill?
[959]
second is equipment
[960]
are they requiring a laptop?
[963]
if you want to offer bookkeeping services to your client
[967]
you need to have your own laptop
[970]
you have a fast internet
[973]
make sure it is working properly
[976]
it is not lagging
[978]
because when it lags
[980]
it means you will not be productive
[982]
you will wait too long
[983]
to process one data
[986]
make sure it is a working laptop
[987]
you have a reliable internet connection
[990]
and of course, you know how to use the computer
[993]
that are the basic things you should have
[996]
and of course, you know how to use Xero and Quickbooks
[1001]
and of course, you need to know how to analyze data
[1007]
when you view a document
[1009]
you can identify what transaction it is
[1012]
or what category it will fall
[1014]
what expenses should be recorded
[1017]
what income should be recorded
[1019]
so that's how it is
[1020]
you must be able to analyze data
[1023]
So Maam Jenneth that's another job of a bookkeeper
[1027]
it is like a big factory
[1029]
analyzing is a big job
[1031]
determining what kind of transaction it is
[1035]
that's a big part of you
[1037]
that is true
[1039]
because when you can't identify,
[1041]
it would be difficult and you will be stucked in that process
[1045]
Maam Jenneth, do you have a tutorial?
[1047]
in analyzing a data like that
[1050]
actually, not yet
[1051]
because right now I'm more on Xero
[1054]
I am introducing them to the software first
[1057]
so that is it home mates
[1058]
if you want this
[1060]
again, you can visit Maam Jenneth's Xero tutorial
[1064]
I want to teach you about that
[1066]
but I can't do that
[1068]
there are experts when it comes to such
[1070]
they will teach you about the software
[1072]
again Ma'am Jenneth
[1074]
does the client require experience?
[1078]
experience is not required
[1081]
but
[1082]
it is better that you are dedicated
[1086]
because when I started I had no experience
[1089]
totally nothing when it comes to online jobs
[1092]
so what I did
[1094]
I just proved to my client that I could deliver the result
[1098]
and I have the skill they are looking for
[1100]
which is I can analyze data
[1103]
and I could work even when I'm at home
[1106]
I can deliver a result to him even if we are far apart
[1110]
that is how it is
[1111]
Ma'am Jenneth
[1112]
where will they see you?
[1114]
like where they can find you
[1116]
where they can learn from you
[1118]
if you want to learn about bookkeeping
[1120]
the use of software used by a bookkeeper
[1124]
you can visit me on my youtube channel
[1128]
which is Kajea Vlogs
[1130]
I teach more about bookkeeping
[1133]
and online work related to a virtual assistance
[1136]
and bookkeeping
[1138]
so that is it home mates
[1139]
thank you for watching
[1141]
see you next time
[1142]
it is nicely shared by Ma'am Jenneth
