Bookkeeping is something that you either have to learn or outsource when you're running a business. Luckily, it's possible to learn how to manage your own books and there are a few notable benefits to tackling it yourself.

Bookkeeping can be a surprisingly profitable business. That's partly because bookkeeping businesses don't have a lot of barriers to entry or even a lot of startup costs to worry about. All you really need is some bookkeeping experience, access to accounting software, and a way to market yourself to prospects.
