Most online businesses don’t need more complicated accounting.
As your revenue grows, it’s easy to assume your accounting needs to become more sophisticated. For some businesses, that often means switching from simple cash-based bookkeeping to something called accrual accounting.
The problem is, most online businesses don’t actually need it.
Accrual records income when it’s earned instead of when cash actually hits your bank account. While that approach makes sense for certain types of companies, most online and modern small businesses don’t benefit from the added complexity.
In this week’s episode, I break down the difference between cash-basis and accrual accounting, when accrual truly makes sense, and why simpler is often smarter.

For the past few years, the online business world has been changing fast.
Costs have gone up.
Customer behavior has changed.
And many business owners are asking the same question:
What’s actually normal right now?
That’s exactly why we created the Online Business Industry Report. And we’re so excited to share the 2nd Edition, built from a full year of financial data from hundreds of online businesses in 2025.
Inside the report, we’re digging into things like:
- What profit margins actually look like across different revenue levels
- Where most online businesses are spending their money
- How owner pay and team costs are shifting across the industry
- And what the most stable businesses are doing differently right now
I’ll be walking through the findings live in a free workshop on:
📅 Thursday, March 19, 2026
⏰ 10:00 AM PT
Last time we hosted this workshop, one of the most valuable parts was the conversation that unfolded once business owners started sharing what they were seeing in their own businesses.
The more perspectives in the room, the better the discussion becomes. If you run an online business, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss!
