Are you an accountant or bookkeeper in India?

Maybe you are a commerce graduate or an MBA or even a CA or CMA.

Are you happy with your growth prospects and the amount you are earning at the moment?

Don’t worry, this is not a survey.

We have asked around and identified some of the most common problems faced by people working in sectors like finance, bookkeeping, accounting etc.

Here are the ones we most hear about.

1. The pay is really low in these fields.
2. Entry level salaries are so low that it is not even enough to sustain you. 
3. Even CAs and CMAs struggle to earn well despite working very hard – less than 1% of them secure jobs in Big Four or other reputed organisations
4. Those who start their own practices or firms rarely manage to succeed because they fail to land high ticket clients. It’s obvious high ticket clients prefer reputed or Big Four firms 
5. The competition is fierce leading to fees becoming lesser and lesser. Many online startups which do book-keeping, accounting, tax filing, and other work have already driven down prices for such work to rock-bottom. 
6. There is a threat of AI taking away many easy jobs where repetitive tasks are involved.

There is a huge demand on you to specialise and differentiate – but what do you need to specialise in and how can you do it? 

Even 10-20 years back it was very different. Your seniors may be shocked to hear how much it has changed today.

What can you do in this situation?

Is it not reasonable to get a job that pays well, or build your own practice where you can earn INR 1-2 lakhs per month? 

Seems unimaginable? 

Not so, we promise you. We know because we have seen it happen in front of our eyes.

In fact we have empowered people to do so.

You can earn incredibly well by shifting your horizons and focus a little bit.

Let’s look westward, towards the US.

There are 2.5 million e-commerce websites in the US alone. All of them need accountants and bookkeepers.

But why would they hire you instead of someone locally?

Because of the huge cost advantage. 

Even if you quote them something as low as $10 or $20 it would be more than what clients are ready to pay here.

Yes, you will need some extra skills and some initial guidance. 

This is why we are inviting you to our 3 day, online, live bootcamp – How Indian Accounting & Bookkeeping Professionals can get US Jobs and Freelance Gigs from 3pm to 6 pm from 16th to 18th December. 

Let us finish with an incredible true story.

CA finalist Vijayathithyan B.B. runs a firm called Pramoth & Associates with his partner in Bengaluru, and he joined our course in October 2022.

When the time came to look for freelance assignments, one of his first activities with us was to post a basic video on LinkedIn about how to incorporate a company in Delaware, which our team showed him how to do. 

He took 10 minutes to create the video with our guidance, and it was posted on LinkedIn at 11.00 am. The very same day, a prospective client who had just incorporated a company in Delaware connected with him at 7.00 pm and requested a meeting. 

This was an Indian AI company based in Chennai with a presence in the US, and they were impressed enough to retain Vijay for corporate compliance on a retainership of INR 2 lakh per year. 

He is also assisting them to set up a finance division for their Indian and US entities, and performing tax compliance both in India and abroad. 

Simultaneously, he has sent out numerous proposals on Upwork, via email, and on LinkedIn, and has earned more than INR 75,000 from freelance work until now. 

Currently, Vijay is working on three International projects regarding the incorporation of two companies in Delaware and one in California. He will be earning INR 20-25,000 for each incorporation, having secured one of the clients on LinkedIn and the others through referrals. 

Exciting?
