Why 125k?
If you are profiting over $125,000 in your business we suggest you take the course and reachout regarding our custom consulting packages. Allow us to assist in building your advisory team. Having a narrow focus allows our course to have maximum impact.
Ideal candidates are consultants, coaches, or online businesses without inventory. We cover inventory in our Advanced Entrepreneur course because it adds another layer of complexity.
If you’ve got a side hustle (a small business you’re running on the side while keeping your day job), then we can help you, too. Starting slow and on the side is a great approach to minimize your initial risk and build up to success, and we’ll happily walk you through the process.
Decades of experience distilled into one online course.
We call this a course package because it encompasses what we teach and provide our entrepreneur clients at the Gillingham CPA firm, all for a fraction of the cost.

Boot-Strappers Welcome
We’re aiming to accelerate the growth of small businesses funded often with a dream and a credit card.
We understand and address not only the financial struggles, but making it work at home as well. Nothing is more valuable then your time and business runway.
KYN works for loads of different professions such as: computer programming, graphic design, accounting, insurance sales, real estate, and consultanting.
Many simply take their current job and strike out to do the same work on their own. For example, a staff fitness instructor at a local gym may begin working for clients independently. These “hours for dollars” businesses are difficult to scale, but are a great way to transition into self-employment.
This involves essentially buying and re-selling physical goods using Amazon, Shopify, eBay, or even swap-meet/flea markets.
There is a steep learning curve for those starting product-based businesses without previous experience, but the long-term regards can be great. As your product-based business grows, you may end up with a manufacturing operation.
This is the path I took in creating Accounting Play and Know Your Numbers.
Content and digital product creators have a host of different considerations, since most of their costs are just the daily living expenses that allow them to create. One advantage to being a creator is the ease of content publication, but there are many real challenges to address as well.
Size and Entity Matters
KYN addresses important needs with realistic constraints. For most self-funded entrepreneurs, knowledge, time, and money are the most valuable.
We want you to make your finanancial desicions undertanding that we do not have a million dollar investor check waiting for us. These small businesses will need to be designed to actually make the first $100,000 profit and then work into the first seven figures.
Three stages of entrepreneurial savvy.
Whether you’re just beginning to formulate your idea, already up and running with a couple employees, or somewhere in between, there’s a Know Your Numbers course for you!

What people are saying about our products
We use the Debits & Credits game in class to engage students and occasionally assign for extra credit
Thanks for the Cheat Sheet, ironic coming from a teacher, but great to have a reference to point back to
I am impressed with the amount of illustrations, audio, and video jammed into this app centered around learning accounting. I learned a ton about debit and credit, accounting equation, and statements. Compared to a textbook this costs almost nothing. Thanks for the great resourse
I started using the app for my Certified Bookkeepers class. Excellent tool for studying before a test. The cheat sheet is awesome & shared with my class. It has helped me with my Depreciation & Inventory classes, especially with the formulas I keep forgetting
Love the app! I am a designer and do a lot of contract work so thought it would be really helpful to learn a few things about taxes and how to maybe better plan my expenses. Little did I know how actually helpful it was! I wish I knew about this app earlier
