Trying to recreate your entire 2026 mileage log by triangulating your trips from your Google Maps and calendar? 🔍

Do this instead ↓

📲 Download a mileage app like Everlance or MileIQ.

They automatically track all your trips! Each week, you can go in and categorize whether they were for a personal errand or a legitimate business purpose.

More of a pen + paper mileage tracker? ✍️

That's totally fine! For each trip, write down these things:

→ The date
→ Starting location + destination
→ Total business miles
→ Specific business purpose
→ Which vehicle you drove (if you drive multiple)

Whatever you do, the IRS wants you to keep a ~timely~ log, so make time for a 5-minute mileage review in your calendar each week. 📆

Have you ever heard someone say that taking the home office deduction increases your audit risk?!

Yeah, that's just an old myth! 🙃

The thing you reallllly need to be careful about if you're a business owner who primarily works from home is that your home office space should be used regularly + exclusively for your business.

A kitchen table where you set up your laptop from 9 to 3, then host Taco Tuesday at 7? 🌮

That's exactly where the IRS starts to have an issue!

Home offices aren't an automatic red flag, but if you want to deduct yours, you generally need to keep personal use out of it.

POV: You were going to catch up on your bookkeeping after that family vacation to Mexico... then after the 4th of July... then after the kids go back to school...

I SEE YOU! 👀

And I've seen this pattern with too many [your niches] before you to know exactly how it ends: you desperately searching for a bookkeeper before April 15th!

I've laid out the exact steps you need to take to get your bookkeeping caught back up after the summer.

Don't have the time, energy, or desire to do all that?!

Let's simplify it to just one step: click the link in my bio! 🔗🤭

Do real estate investors come to me with some ~creative~ account names and questionable write-offs?!

Absolutely! 🙂‍↕️

Would I ever expose them?

I will genuinely take it to my deathbed! 🤫

Fox Valley Bookkeeping is a judgement-free zone for real estate investors.

Got a finance question you're too scared to ask anyone else because you feel like it's dumb? I'm your girl. 📲

So... you've signed up to spend your weekends figuring out what that transaction from a place called SQ*0852HP3 is from? 🕵️

Kidding, doing your own bookkeeping isn't thaaat bad... as long as you know what you're doing (and follow my advice on the next slides 🤭).

In my opinion, the best DIY bookkeeping set-up doesn't mean you have to have the most expensive software or have everything automated.

The best system is the one you'll stick with even when you're swamped with flipping homes, going to closing appointments and coordinating contractors schedules 😅

Cause I do! 😏

Waiting 3 business days for a response on a decision for your business that you end up having to panic-Google instead is nooott it!

I'm here for my clients to ask the "is this normal?" questions, talk through the numbers, and help you make decisions in real time. 😌

Stop scrolling and make sure you have your own copies of these things saved right now ↓

→ Bank, credit card + loan statements

→ Receipts + vendor invoices

→ Sales reports from your payment processor (Stripe, Etsy, Square, etc.)

→ Payroll reports (deposit confirmations, filings, W-2s/W-3)

→ Tax records (filings, estimated tax payments, IRS or state notices)

→ Bookkeeping records (monthly financial statements, reconciliation reports, year-end financials)

→ Business formation documents (LLC/organization documents, business licenses, EIN letter, state/local registrations, etc.)

These documents shouldn't exclusively live in your iPhone files or a local folder on your laptop; make sure you're saving them to a location that isn't device-dependent! 🖥️

Did you buy a new blazer SPECIFICALLY for a new photoshoot? 📸

Believe it or not, if you haven't altered that blazer, it's not deductible as a business expense.

Clothing that is not specialized work gear and can be suitable for other occasions (meaning you could also wear that blazer to a nice dinner) is not deductible. 🚫

Even if you ONLY wear that blazer for your photoshoot, it still *could* be worn elsewhere, and that's what the IRS cares about!

However, if you embroider your logo on the outside of your blazer, you can now classify the embroidery costs and the costs of your blazer as a marketing expense. 💸

One of the most frustrating things for business owners doing their own bookkeeping is when your bank feeds get all wonky...

Like, what do you mean I have to manually enter all 100 of my transactions from last month?!🫠

But as someone who works in Quickbooks on the daily, I'm kind of a pro at getting bank feeds back online and syncing correctly!

I know I wasn't the only kid thinking a brand new agenda was going to completely change my academic future...

Buying the latest Lisa Frank may not have been the reason I was the teacher's favorite, but getting the things on the next slide will ~definitely~ make you one of your bookkeeper and tax accountant's favorite clients! 😍
