Episode 7: Your bank balance is not your income. 💸
As a designer, money reaches you from Stripe, PayPal, Wise, direct transfers and Contra. By the time it lands, fees, currency conversion and delays have already taken a cut, and some of it never gets recorded.
That’s why a monthly bank reconciliation matters. It means matching your bank statement to your books, line by line, so you can:
✅ Spot the client invoice that was never paid
✅ Catch the software subscription you forgot to cancel
✅ Find the processor fees nobody recorded
✅ Know your real profit per project
✅ Reach tax time with clean numbers instead of a panic
It takes about 30 minutes a month. A gap you catch in October is easy to fix. A gap you find a year later is expensive.
