Dez Magelssen is the founder of Alpine Ridge Accounting, where she helps women-led, service-based business owners get a grip on their finances so they can stress less and enjoy more of what they love. Dez has over a decade of accounting experience and is based in Bozeman, MT, though you can work with her remotely.
Dez is also a collaborator on the Money Clarity Course for freelancers! We teamed up to offer a module in the course specifically around freelance business money management, including legal entities, tax filing, bookkeeping, and more.
In this episode, Justine and Dez chat about:
Why and how freelancers should separate business and personal finances
Whether to form an LLC or another entity
Why to file quarterly taxes
Whether there's a difference between expenses and deductions
Figuring out what are qualified expenses when it comes to gear and apparel
How to pay yourself through your business
Saving enough for taxes and how much to anticipate
Enrollment is open for the Money Clarity program's Q4 cohort!
Most of us never had anybody teach us how to balance books or create a pricing model, and "unpacking money beliefs” probably wasn’t on the agenda either.
But just like you learned to be safe in the backcountry, take epic photos, or develop your craft, you can learn how to set up a practical and profitable financial foundation.
Address your money mindset and financial practices head-on, while getting accountability and resources to help you reach your financial goals.
We have live coaching calls every month plus lifetime access to the six sections of the course. We even have a certified accountant join in one module to give you the ins and outs of the financial system.
I believe this is the only money course you'll ever need as a freelancer.
We start October 1st and go through the rest of 2024, so you can kick off 2025 with the clarity and confidence you need to reach your financial goals while freelancing.
