As a photographer and designer, I’ve seen a lot of misinformation floating around in regards to accounting and business record keeping. I’ve wanted to develop a series of short videos to help creatives better understand all things left-brained. My formal education is, in fact, in Accountancy and I graduated with my Bachelor’s from ASU. I also have my MBA. Once I got all of the left-brained degrees out of the way (and able to support my family) I began to follow my passion for photography… and design… and Photoshop! In the last several years, I’ve had so many people ask me accounting related questions that I’ve been wanting to create a series of videos specifically for artistic creatives. Originally I wanted to sell subscriptions to the series, but ultimately decided to just share my knowledge without charging for the series. As you can well imagine, this does take a bit of time to put together… so while they are free to view on youtube, I had to monetize the series to make it worth my while. What photographer wants to work for free, right?
In the essence of time, the video presentations are silent. I spent several hours testing recorded explanations to go with the videos, but decided it was just WAY too time consuming. Being a perfectionist does NOT help the process. You’ll just have to turn on the radio if you need noise while you watch the series. I’m not sure how often I’ll put out a video, but I’ll be sure to post a link to each one here as they’re released.
I’d love, love, love to get your feedback (both here and on youtube) so that I can put out a product that will be helpful to my fellow photographers and artists. I’ll be covering a wide range of topics, and will hopefully squelch a lot of the misinformation that I’ve heard floating around out there. I was a tax consultant for five years and am still in the accounting industry, so I’ve seen a lot out there!
ENJOY!
