If it feels like everyone in Colorado has a side hustle these days… you’re not wrong. From rideshare drivers in Denver to freelance designers in Boulder to yoga instructors in Colorado Springs, the gig economy here is booming. And while gig work brings flexibility (and maybe even a little Rocky Mountain freedom), it also brings one big headache: keeping your finances in order as a 1099 worker.

If you think bookkeepers cry over math problems, you’d be wrong. We cry over messy records, mystery transactions, and enough crumpled receipts to wallpaper the Denver Public Library. But we also cheer—loudly—when a client hands us a clean, reconciled account.

You know that feeling when you hand your bookkeeper a pile of crumpled receipts, a mystery bank statement, and a sheepish smile — and then hope they poof turn it into a perfectly balanced set of books? Yeah… about that.

If there’s one phrase we hear on repeat from new clients at Clearbookz, it’s this:“I don’t know where my money is going.” First of all — you’re not alone. If that sentence feels like it was ripped straight from your brain, congrats, you're officially a small business owner doing All The Things. And second of all — this is music to a bookkeeper’s ears. Why? Because it means we’ve got somewhere to start.
