Services – Katherine Pomerantz

Finally trust your money is taken care of, so you can focus on where you're the most valuable.

CREATIVELY FREE. FINANCIALLY STABLE.

Do you feel like something is holding you back in business?

Can you name it?

Can you measure it?

Can you release it?

Money Maps see and name anchors in your business – it’s not gut feeling, not intuition, not guesswork, not opinion. It’s money. And it doesn’t lie.

There are a lot of great services that could deliver financial data to you.

It’s one thing to have an external system giving you data. It’s quite another to make that system internal so you can really live and feel it.

That’s what being a Money Storyteller means. You’ll still get feelings that something is “off” in your business, but you’ll also have the tools to go and find it. Once found, you can make more money.

THE BOOKKEEPING ARTIST (BKA)

BKA is a virtual accounting firm.

With Katherine Pomerantz at the helm, this team of trusted bookkeepers and accountants use the Chaos Money Framework to support creative business owners from the early phases to multi-millionaire dollar businesses.

All BKA services are customized and start with a discovery call.

I WANT A MAP FOR MY SUCCESS

The Chaos Money Framework, which is one of the pillars of money storytelling, was designed to help you do just this.

It’s a 5-step framework that helps you create and apply financial strategy, so you can achieve your business goals and make more money.

Because helping yourself is the first step towards helping other people.

With the Chaos Money Framework, you will:

Have a clear understanding of high-level financial concepts as they relate to your business.
Feel empowered to lead your team and business, make more impact, and help people.
Make more money. With a lot of the work done upfront, all you’ll need is to refine your Money Map to meet changes and growth in your business.

But that’s just scratching the surface.

You will also:

Spend your time in more effective ways, working only on areas that really affect your business.
Have better clients - because you have a much better system for evaluating what things are worth your time.
Enjoy better negotiating power. You’ll be much clearer on the value you provide and be able to stick up for yourself.
Have improved relationships with yourself and your money
And be less stressed about money. You’ll be able to survive and thrive in the face of crisis because you know a crisis won’t break you. No more panic. Just more success.

"I've loved working with Katherine and the Bookkeeping Artist team. They've not only taken care of the day-to-day details for us, but they've been instrumental in helping us develop strategies for the future. The best part of adding them to our team is that now we focus on making quality podcasts for our listeners, knowing that our books are in order and our company is in great shape."

"My name is McKenzie and I’m a full time wedding photographer. Before I worked with Katherine I struggled so much with organization and taxes. As creatives, our brains don't operate in a way that easily understands the financial side of things. They also don't teach you this stuff in art school...

Since working with Katherine, I was able to reorganize my business and take charge of my business financially. She broke down terms I didn't understand and I never feel judged when chatting with her. She honestly cares and you can tell.

Hiring Katherine is an easy choice if you want to take complete charge of your business both creatively and financially."

"My name is Jennifer Walschap and I run Imagine Music and Arts. After about 3 years in business, I felt I had hit a wall with my finances. I felt limited by money and my budget, and my business goals felt like distant dreams. I knew I needed someone’s help, but I didn’t know who or what I needed.

Since meeting Katherine and learning about her Chaos Money Framework, I knew I had found the answer. In the 6 months I have been working with her, I have a renewed sense of control over my business and my goals feel attainable! I am learning how to use money to my benefit, rather than let it hold me back.

Hiring Katherine is the best thing you can do for your business, especially if you are feeling stuck or stagnant. She somehow makes talking about money fun and exciting, and you will feel inspired again after working with her!

TEACHING AND EMBODYING THE CHAOS MONEY FRAMEWORK IS OUR PRIMARY SERVICE,

BUT WE FURTHER SUPPORT YOUR BUSINESS THROUGH:

HERE’S WHY MOST ACCOUNTING SERVICES FALL SHORT:

We can create financial reports, budgets, strategy maps, etc. We can further set up bookkeeping systems to feed these reports. But that doesn’t change your day-to-day responsibility as a business owner.

You still have to take action on these reports, update them regularly, and continuously refine your strategy. This often feels overwhelming or irritating, so most business owners tend to give up or skip over this work altogether.

If you can approach this as a Money Storyteller, then it’s easier, faster, and – dare I say it – fun.
It’s this unique perspective that makes BKA so valuable. Yes, we use traditional accounting tools. But because of our Chaos Money Framework, they are more effective for YOU to implement.

And because your strategy is easier to implement,
your wealth grows.

The Chaos Money Studio

This is a 1:1 mentorship program where we do a deep-dive into your business.

I work with you to design your money map, a custom money-management strategy that lines up with your mission. I also equip you with emotional and mindfulness tools to tackle ongoing stressors surrounding money and give you control over your financial future.

The program duration is 90 days, with a support and implementation period of up to 6 months.

How it works

Fill out this intake form and schedule a 30-minute discovery call with me. During the call, we discuss your goals and determine if we’re the right fit. You also get a feel of what you’re going to get out of our collaboration. It is important to get out of your investment what you put into it, so this call serves to establish expectations on both sides.
Your value-centered business plan. This is where you share your goals and I translate them in money terms.
Clean-up. I gather financial data during a one-time clean-up of your accounts and feed these into your accounting system. I also check the system to make sure it’s running correctly.
Money Map Design. Using data obtained from your accounting software, I design your money map – your new financial system. This is where you learn how to engage money as your teammate, so it can work for you.
Implementation. With your money map built, you can start leading your business in line with your vision. You will have a clearer understanding of your financial statements, make plans and execute them more strategically, and also make better decisions.
Accountability & follow-up. As you implement your strategy, you’ll be able to reach out for help. This is where you continue working to refine, validate and update the points on your money map. As a creative, staying the course is a superpower you will learn. It may take a few months but reaching your goals is so worth the effort.

The Chaos Money Studio is for you if you:

Want a custom, BIG PICTURE strategy that aligns with your purpose.
Want a true understanding of what money is and how it can be used.
Are looking for predictability through clear metrics and tracking.
Believe that the purpose of wealth and abundance is to create freedom and impact.
Have worked with other coaches and grown successful at selling but not quite at managing your money to make it work for you.
You want your business to work FOR YOU, not the other way around!

It is not for you if you:

Are looking for a shortcut to financial stability.
Are looking for a consultant to tell you what to do. This Studio is more akin to coaching, where you will discover your own answers and gain the tools to achieve.
Are an excuse maker or no-show. This program is for doers only.
Are only half-committed to your goals.
