    Great show!
    This podcast is a perfect kickstart to the mornings. For motivation, inspiration, and actionable tips, The Successful Bookkeeper is where it’s at! Thank you for having me on as a guest!
  • JenTracy7
    Amazing Show
    Amazing show with great content!! So appreciative of the insight shared!
  • GloMommy!
    Excellent podcast that I look forward to weekly
    Michael does such a great job interviewing the guests. The most rent episode “tips to get your business back on track” was the realest interview I’ve heard from someone that has had a successful business and ran into struggles. I was just so grateful that this episode came out because I really related in some ways. She’s had a rough year and she was willing to share her story. As soon as I started my business - there were so many obstacles and I kinda thought it was just me struggling to make everything work. I loved her outlook and her metaphors and really made so much sense to me!. Excellent and honest episode!
  • Lpyle12345
    Great podcast even if you’re not a bookkeeper
    I'm not a bookkeeper but I am a business owner. However, bookkeepers are one of the professions we serve so I enjoy learning more about the industry. I found so much of the content applicable to any small business. I enjoy the variety of topics and guests.
  • A-MACK
    Great Interview!
    Michael is such a masterful interviewer and conversationalist. He brings out the best in his guests and clearly understands how to bring value and insight to his audience. This is a great one to follow and check out when it pops up in your “Up Next”!
  • IanAB1

    Great info for bookkeeping entrepreneurs
    I came across this podcast while searching for bookkeeping resources. The Successful Bookkeeper Podcast offers bookkeeping info for entrepreneurs starting their own business.
  • GeraldineDcarter
    Great resource for bookkeepers running their own businesses!
    Michael is plugged in and switched on. His is a great podcast with interesting guests and worthwhile insights. If you want intelligent, innovative ideas for your bookkeeping business, look no further!
  • Monique43895672
    Good information, Poor quality sound
    There is A LOT of good information in this podcast but the quality of the sound is terrible. I realize that on most podcasts, people are interviewed virtually. But for some reason, on this one, the quality is so poor it sounds like the guest is talking on their phone inside a cave. Sometimes it is very hard to hear and not clear. Poor sound quality. Which is a shame because there is so much good in here it takes away from the quality information you get.
  • bwonson
    Great support for bookkeeping and financial small businesses
    I listened to Michael Palmer’s podcast when I was invited to be a guest talking about Navigating Challenging Dialogue® and Mastering Feedback®. At first I wondered how his podcast, geared toward bookkeepers, could be relevant and meaningful for me - a small business owner and consultant. However, as I listened to different episodes, I gained a great deal of insight that regardless of the work of the business, really matters. Thank you for being a quality podcaster sharing great content!
  • Taking the shot!!!

  • J. Barshop
    Insightful, entertaining and actionable
    Michael and his wide variety of knowledgeable guests are making financial management a fascinating task rather than a finicky chore! The great content and advice they provide, combined with the relatable way in which they deliver it had me hooked from the very first listen. Thanks for putting out such a stellar show Mike - keep up the great work!
