How much are you actually making?
Enough? Not enough?
I find that having everything in one place is a great way to keep track of your finances.
You can do this with spreadsheets.
Not many people know that once you have a good spreadsheet set up, there are no extra ongoing costs!
If you're visual like me, tracking your money, whether it's personal or for your business, just makes so much sense.
This template lets you:
- See your monthly income, expenses, and actual profit.
- Track your monthly target, whether it's £1,000 or £10,000.
- See how much you've earned and how much you have left to reach your goal.
Simple, clear, and easy to use.✨

Running a small business is already a lot of work — keeping track of every expense, transaction, and financial record shouldn't make it harder!
Hi everyone! I'm an Accounting & Finance student building my skills in bookkeeping, Excel, and financial reporting.
Here’s how I can help:
📊 Excel bookkeeping & spreadsheet organization

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.
