In this episode of Dose of Social, we dive into the “unsexy but essential” side of running a business—bookkeeping and financial strategy—with Stacey Hunt, founder of Lockstep Consulting. After 30 years in corporate sales, Stacey transitioned into entrepreneurship to empower creatives and service providers to understand and manage their numbers with confidence.

From the difference between bookkeepers and accountants to tools for streamlining your finances, Stacey breaks down exactly what every entrepreneur should know. Whether you're DIY-ing your books or thinking about hiring help, this episode is packed with insights on building a financially sound business that can actually grow.

Here’s what we’re diving into:

• Stacey’s pivot from corporate sales to launching Lockstep Consulting
• Why bookkeeping isn’t just data entry—it’s strategic decision-making
• The top numbers every business owner should track: cash flow, AR/AP, margins
• How often you should actually be reviewing your financials
• The key difference between a bookkeeper and a tax accountant (and why you probably need both)
