ions. So, I'm hoping I can catch a couple business owners where they're getting too busy for the day. So, I built this product for every small business owner. I know most have a problem. Not always, but I bet you a good 90%. So, let me show you what I built. Let me show how easy it is. And every business needs to have this so you can know your numbers. So, this is a uh a bookkeeping tax planning system. They're built in together. I will show you the app in a second. I just wanted to show you if you ever done QuickBooks or any other accounting and you're not have an accounting background, guess what? Then you're going to have trouble setting up your account. You don't know everything where everything goes. I eliminated all that. I built a fully no learning curve bookkeeping that can work with somebody who makes a few million dollars. And let me log in. I mean, let me on board. This how easy it is to initially on board and then once you're in the system, you'll finish off. But this is how you on board. Let me show you how easy it is. I'mma use the voice command. Everything I do is voice command because that's pretty much where AI is going. I click it. Allow this site. And then it tells me, "Hi, I'm Taylor, your bookkeeping assistant. I'll set up." Wait, let me shut it off. You got to shut it off like the mic because if you don't then um it'll pick up all the words. I don't know why I see all AI doing that where you have to shut the mic off. So, we'll see. So, hi, I'm Taylor, your AI bookkeeping assistant. I'll set up your books in about five minutes. I've never seen nobody do it in five minutes. First, they got to learn how to do it. then takes them an hour or two maybe three after a couple days couple weeks of YouTube University then to start tell me about your business in your own words what do you do and roughly how long have you been doing it so I am a plumber and 10 years okay so it's going to ask me if you Love it. 10 years of serious experience. What should I call you? And what's the name of your plumbing company? Uh Mark and Prime Plumbing. Click that. Nice to meet you, Mark. And got it. Prime Plumbing. It is one quick thing. are you the soul order I'm going to put escortp that's what we are now I could have just talked I could have answered the questions that way I decided to to type them in but you do have the ability to to just voice it so I'm set up now tells me nice to meet you great prime plumbing is all set up here's what's ready for you. Charter of accounts built for you. 14-day trial, active, no card needed. Ready to connect your bank. That's next. Type continue when ready. And ask me anything first. So, I'll go to the dashboard. And now we're in Prime Plumbing. And I want to show you important things that most businesses don't know on a daily basis. They they got to go on QuickBooks, figure out how to get their daily numbers. I I I solved that problem for you guys. This thing is no learning curve. Very simple. So, you're inside. You can connect your bank. Now, you're on a 14-day trial. I'm not asking for credit card. I set this up because this is how I always wanted to buy products for the last 30 years. When I bought something, very rare you get a 14-day trial. You know why they don't give you 14-day trial? Because they don't want you to have one bad experience. Because if you do, you're out. You ain't going to sign up. I taking a chance on my on my one eliminates anything to do with bookkeeping. All you got to do is feed it, connect your bank, and scan things, and your bookkeeping would be amazing. You can even do your own taxes. That's how that's how the the bookkeeping sets up the taxes for your CPA if you have one. So, if you don't want to connect your bank and you're on a 14-day trial, you can still take a copy of your business bank account, just couple pages, and scan it and see if it goes where it's supposed to go in the system. So, when I said plumber, right, did it set me up? Let's check. Let's check. Here's my chart of accounts. I don't know if you guys know what accounting, but your chart of accounts, that's where all the money goes uh everything goes there. Your your your assets everything. Okay. So, auto autogenerate a chart of accounts. How do we know it's plumbing? Watch. just start to recognize plumbing equipment tools videos plumbing tools and equipment. So, it has specific for plumbing. You ain't got to think. Most people, they wouldn't have uh plumbing tools for equipment. They'll just have equipment. Mines is very technical and you ain't got to learn nothing. You [clears throat] just got to command it, you know. And the cool thing is you don't need to know about county with mines. Here's a little guy. I'll put them up against any CPA. You ask any question you want. How do I run this software? What do I do? It will answer. You'll never have to call nobody. This thing is set up. And believe me, Taylor, she's programmed with a lot of knowledge. Uh, attorney tax knowledge, attorney tax knowledge, uh, CPA knowledge, EA knowledge. She knows how to do it all when it comes to the IRS. And she can answer any question and come. So, you have that. If it's a owner, you're a home. You want to know you're right here. Show me my five biggest expenses. You want to know what your five biggest expenses are. See if you can get them down. That's the kind of thing you can do with this software. So, let's go back. Here's the scan. So, here's the scanner I told you. Now, you won't be using it on here unless you buy a scanner, but you'll have it on your phone. This app goes on your phone. You're having a a a party for the for the for the office on Saturday. You go to Costco, everything's a write-off. You buy all the stuff from Costco, you come out of Costco. Instead of throwing the receipt, most people that receipt never makes a home, but me, it doesn't. You take a picture of it now. It's a business account hopefully on Costco. And now it goes into the software and and the the the receipts in the year get audited. The receipts there. You can you can even jot down in the notes. This was for a a party. This it does it all, you guys. So, you got the re the scanner and then you connect your bank and you just feed it constantly and it'll do what it's supposed to do and your books will be amazing. Now, if you want to uh bring your books over and they're dirty, bring them over. Just leave them behind and let's clean you up and get you started fresh. We can do that with this system. Now, here's your numbers, guys. Now, there's no numbers in here. It's a new company, right? I just set it up. We've seen that income. You want to know your daily income month January, December, that income is going to be here all year. Your expenses, obviously, your income better outdo your expenses or you're in trouble, right? Your profit. Your profit better have profit, estimated tax owed, and then let me show you KPI. Anybody Anybody know what KPIs are? A lot of small business owners don't know what the KPIs are. Here's your KPI numbers. On top of these numbers you need to see daily. These are your KPI numbers. And you want to see all your KPIs. It's the same kind of business you are, right? If you're a home service, you're a plumbing company. I'm going to have your everything in here. Revenue per tech. You're going to know what every driver is going to bring, every truck is going to bring. If you have 10 trucks, you're going to know who makes the most money. And then now you can just go by the revenue and say, "Hey, Johnny, I thought I gave you the sales. I gave you the training. and uh I'm still having problems and you're not meeting the quot of the other guys. Now, not everybody's going to be the same, but when somebody's way off, you you you can tell. So, everything's here. Close rate, revenue per truck, days to get paid, revenue per tech, late, everything, everything's here that you need to know on a bookkeeping software. Now, I threw in some bonuses because I think people want to have that ability to pay their stuff off. So, I'll show you that. But, let me show you this. Anybody that gets his bookkeeping right now, for the first 50 people, you're going to get my my security hub. You put all your apps in one place and you log in here. Just boom, just click it and you go all in because you logged in to the hub. So the hub secured and you just got to go to one place. I used to go all over my computer to find stuff. Now everything's here. I just log in here and then I put one more bonuses for the people who get the the the this uh setup. now. Okay. So, here's one more thing you guys I put in for anybody gets a bookkeeping probably for the first 50. So, this is shows you how to pay your house, your bills, everything off. So, I throw this in.
