Episode Synopsis


As an early-stage entrepreneur you’ve probably tried to do your accounting yourself, at least once. Not surprisingly, it’s one of the first things that you’ll outsource to a third-party provider because you quickly realise your business will be better off with the guidance of a professional. 
A member from our entrepreneur community, The Level-Up League, is an accountant and tutor and in this episode we chat with him about what he calls “making order out of chaos”. Can you relate?
Giles Belfrage of Accountancy Tamer has a wonderfully quirky sense of humour and has been helping entrepreneurs and students in Bermuda for years. He was also a lecturer at Bermuda College.
In this short and punchy episode we hope you’ll find useful perspectives as we head into 2023.
We cover topics such as:

Work-life purpose and why we do what we do
The importance of prioritising getting your numbers in order
Do you know if your business is profitable?
The 4 obligations to government
Not giving up and being resilient
Having personal boundaries in business
Knowing your strengths and limitations and knowing when to outsource 

Enjoy! Remember we’re always growing and always learning.
