Do it yourself. Get a little guidance. Or let someone else handle it.
Running your own business means wearing a lot of hats. Whether you're a rideshare driver, delivery courier, freelancer, independent contractor, or sole proprietor, you're responsible for more than just earning an income. You also need to keep track of what comes in, what goes out, and where your money is going.
For many self-employed people, bookkeeping is one of those tasks that gets pushed aside. Not because it isn't important, but because there are only so many hours in a day. When you're busy earning a living, sorting through receipts and tracking expenses isn't always at the top of your list.
The good news? You don't have to spend a fortune to keep your books organized.
At EZ Gig Bookkeeping, we believe that good bookkeeping should be accessible and affordable, regardless of the size of your business. That's why we offer three different ways to manage your bookkeeping, depending on your needs, your budget, and how much you want to do yourself.
Option 1 | Do It Yourself and Save Money
Available in Canada and the United States
If you're comfortable managing your own finances and want to keep costs down, doing your own bookkeeping can be an excellent choice.
Our affordable bookkeeping workbooks are designed specifically for gig workers and self-employed individuals, with separate Canadian and U.S. editions. They help you organize your income, track business expenses, and maintain the financial records you'll need throughout the year and at tax time.
You don't need an accounting background or expensive software to get started.
Our Google Sheets workbooks offer:
-
A simple, organized way to track income and expenses.
-
Categories designed for self-employed individuals and gig workers.
-
Automatic calculations and helpful financial summaries.
-
A one-time purchase with no monthly subscription fees.
-
No bank account connections or location tracking. Your financial information stays under your control.
Whether you're driving for Uber or Lyft, delivering orders, freelancing, or operating a small business, keeping accurate records can help you better understand what you're actually earning.
Best for: People who want to take control of their bookkeeping, are comfortable entering their own information, and prefer an affordable, do-it-yourself solution.
Option 2 | Book a Private Consultation and Get Guidance
Available to Canadian customers
Maybe you're happy to do your own bookkeeping, but you're not quite sure where to begin.
Perhaps you've accumulated months of receipts, you're uncertain how to organize your expenses, or you simply want someone to help you establish a better recordkeeping system.
You don't necessarily need to hire a bookkeeper on an ongoing basis. Sometimes, a little personalized guidance is all it takes.
With a private bookkeeping consultation, you can get help understanding how to organize your financial records, record your income and expenses, or establish a practical bookkeeping routine.
We can discuss your specific recordkeeping needs, answer questions about organizing your bookkeeping, and help you find an approach that makes sense for your business.
No complicated accounting jargon. No pressure to sign up for services you don't need.
Best for: Canadian gig workers, independent contractors, and sole proprietors who want to manage their own books but need some guidance or help getting organized.
Option 3 | Hire a Bookkeeper and Save Time
Available locally in the Eastern Greater Toronto Area, Ontario
Not everyone wants to do their own bookkeeping, and that's perfectly reasonable.
Maybe you're too busy running your business. Maybe paperwork isn't your thing. Or perhaps you'd simply rather spend your time doing what you do best.
That's where personalized bookkeeping services come in.
EZ Gig Bookkeeping offers affordable, local bookkeeping assistance for gig workers, independent contractors, and sole proprietors in the Eastern GTA who would prefer to have someone else manage their financial records.
With a bookkeeping background that includes previous experience working with chartered accountants, along with firsthand experience in self-employment and the gig economy, we understand both the numbers and the practical challenges of running a small business.
Our goal is to help you keep your records organized, understand your business finances, and make tax preparation less stressful.
You don't need to be a large company to benefit from having a bookkeeper. Small businesses deserve reliable, affordable support too.
Best for: Self-employed individuals and small business owners in the Eastern GTA who want dependable, personalized bookkeeping assistance without the expense of a large accounting firm.
Good Bookkeeping Isn't Just About Tax Time
It's easy to think of bookkeeping as something you only need when it's time to file your taxes. But keeping your records up to date throughout the year gives you something equally important: a clearer picture of your business.
Are you actually making money after expenses? How much does it cost to operate your business? Are your expenses increasing? Do you have the records you need to support your deductions?
These are questions every self-employed person should be able to answer.
Good bookkeeping helps you make informed decisions, identify potential problems, and avoid the year-end scramble to reconstruct months of financial activity.
And it doesn't have to be complicated or expensive.
Your Business. Your Budget. Your Choice.
At EZ Gig Bookkeeping, we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach.
Some people prefer the independence and savings of doing their own bookkeeping. Others want a little help getting started. And some would rather hand the paperwork over to someone they trust.
All three are perfectly reasonable choices.
Do it yourself and save money. Get guidance when you need it. Or hire a bookkeeper and save time.
Our bookkeeping workbooks are available to customers across Canada and the United States. Private consultations are available to Canadian customers, while personalized bookkeeping services are offered locally in the Eastern GTA.
Whatever works best for you, our goal is to make bookkeeping simpler, more affordable, and less intimidating.
