The Ambitious Bookkeeper Podcast 206 | 2025 The State of Virtual Bookkeeping & Accounting Industry Report with Alyssa Lang
Join Serena and Alyssa Lang, the Workflow Queen, as they dive deep into the results of the first-ever State of Virtual Bookkeeping and Accounting Industry Report! We collected over 200 responses from bookkeepers and accounting firm owners like you, and the data is honestly eye-opening. This isn't your typical corporate survey - this is BY us, FOR us small firm owners.
In this episode you’ll hear:
- The advisory services reality check - Why 41% of you are probably already doing advisory work but not charging for it
- The referral marketing machine breakdown - Since 41% of you rely on word-of-mouth referrals, we're sharing specific strategies to systematize and amplify your referral game
- Team structure insights - Why so many are working full-time but haven't built a team yet
- Client capacity breakdown - 26% are serving 20+ clients, and we're breaking down how that's even possible
- Industry positioning trends - What people are calling themselves and their businesses
