Alicia walks through her systematic approach to year-end cleanup, explaining why many business owners' books contain errors that go unnoticed until tax time. She covers the most common trouble spots—from duplicate revenue in undeposited funds to improperly categorized transactions—and demonstrates how to use QuickBooks' built-in tools like the Reclassify feature and Report Options to fix problems at their source rather than just making adjusting journal entries. The episode emphasizes why proper cleanup matters: automations and banking feeds learn from past behavior, so correcting the underlying transactions prevents the same mistakes from recurring year after year.Sponsors(00:00) - Welcome to The Unofficial QuickBooks Accountants Podcast (00:25) - Year-End Cleanup for Tax Time (02:30) - Importance of Accurate Bookkeeping (04:32) - QuickBooks Tools for Cleanup (14:49) - Reconciling Accounts Properly (18:19) - Categorizing Transactions Correctly (20:51) - Adjusting Inventory and Equity (24:42) - Analyzing Reports for Anomalies (26:03) - Conclusion and Class Promotion Alicia's current classes: 1099s in QBO: http://royl.ws/QBO1099?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEQBO Year-end Cleanup for Taxes: http://royl.ws/yearend?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEProjects & Job Costing in QBO: http://royl.ws/ProjectCenter?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPESales Tax in QBO: http://royl.ws/SalesTax?affiliate=5393907, recording with CPEPayroll Perfection Bundles (4 QBO Payroll classes - 1099s, Running Payroll, Compliance, and QB Time), Live Feb 3-10: http://royl.ws/payroll-perfection?affiliate=5393907 We want to hear from you!Send your questions and comments to us at unofficialquickbookspodcast@gmail.com.Join our LinkedIn community at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14630719/Visit our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@UnofficialQuickBooksPodcast?sub_confirmation=1 Sign up to Earmark to earn free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://www.earmark.app/onboarding

2025 was anything but predictable for short-term rentals. After a surprisingly strong start, the second half of the year told a very different story — and the December data brings that contrast into sharp focus. In this episode of The STR Data Lab, AirDNA Chief Economist Jamie Lane is joined by Bram Gallagher to break down the final U.S. performance numbers and what they reveal about the state of the STR industry heading into 2026.From weakening occupancy to long-awaited ADR growth finally outpacing inflation, the conversation unpacks why topline stability masked huge disparities beneath the surface. While national averages ended the year nearly flat, many operators experienced dramatic wins or losses depending on where they operate, who they serve, and how they're positioned. The episode also explores how broader economic forces — cooling labor markets, mortgage-rate volatility, and a K-shaped economy — showed up clearly in STR performance.Looking ahead, Jamie and Bram dig into pacing data for early 2026, uncovering encouraging signs for spring break and summer travel, especially in resort markets. They also discuss what easing mortgage conditions and stabilizing occupancy could mean for investors considering their next move. Whether you're managing one property or a growing portfolio, this episode helps cut through the noise to understand what really drove performance — and what to watch next.You don't want to miss this episode!Key Takeaways for STR Hosts & Operators2025 was a tale of two halves: Strong performance early in the year gave way to declining occupancy in the back half, despite modest ADR gains.Averages hide extremes: While national occupancy finished flat, nearly half of major markets saw meaningful gains — and others saw steep declines.Luxury outperformed across the board: Higher-priced listings consistently captured stronger (or less negative) occupancy than budget properties, reinforcing the K-shaped economy.Resort markets led the way: Coastal and mountain destinations posted the strongest occupancy and ADR growth, while urban markets continued to struggle.Early 2026 signals are improving: Spring break and summer demand are pacing well, lead times are stabilizing, and easing mortgage conditions may unlock new investment opportunitiesYear End Review:https://www.airdna.co/blog/us-review-december-2025—————Sign up for AirDNA for FREE

Year-End Reality Check: Public Health, Medicare Advantage, and the Limits of AI. 2025 Year-End Reflections is a candid, unscripted look at the biggest shifts shaping population health and covered lives heading into 2026. Gregg and Fred tackle the year's most consequential story first: the destabilization of public health prevention and early warning, and why those blind spots may echo for years. From there, they unpack the affordability fallout of expiring enhanced ACA premium tax credits "QHP" (Qualified Health Plan) sticker shock, the coverage implications of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," Medicare Advantage as an ongoing trust stress test, and where AI realistically helps (admin/workflow) versus where it risks hype, bias, and added burden.

As a new year begins, most practice owners feel like they should "plan better" than they did last year. But here's the problem: Most annual reviews are so complex that they never actually get finished and often focus on things that don't really move the needle for a cash-based or mostly OON practice. In this episode, I walk through a practical, real-world approach to reviewing your year and designing the next one — without chasing someone else's version of success or spending time/resources on things that don't make a big impact. This isn't about arbitrary benchmarks or grinding harder… It's about building a Cash-Based Practice that supports your life, priorities, and definition of success. What You'll Learn in This Episode Which KPIs actually matter in a cash-based model How to evaluate revenue, expenses, and growth honestly Why "good revenue" can still hide serious problems How to turn a year-end review into a clear plan for the year ahead USEFUL INFORMATION: Check out our course: Cash-Based Practice Mastermind

In this episode of the Business of Strength Podcast, Dan Goodman breaks down how his organization runs year-end reviews and why the process has been so effective as the company has grown.The review is done in two parts. First, a self-review led by the team member to create ownership, clarity, and alignment. Second, a compensation review that reinforces expectations and removes uncertainty around performance and pay.Dan also discusses the two factors that truly drive growth in training businesses: the ability to generate consistent leads and the ability to lead humans well. While most gyms focus on marketing, this episode highlights why leadership systems are just as critical.This two-part review process has improved retention, strengthened leadership, and increased fulfillment across the team, making it a practical framework for any gym owner managing a growing staff.Get tickets for our upcoming events:https://trainerschool.businessofstrength.com/ (https://trainerschool.businessofstrength.com/)https://london.businessofstrength.com/ (https://london.businessofstrength.com/) Support our Sponsors of the Show:TurnKey Coach https://turnkey.coach/business-of-strength/Ignite Entrepreneurs https://ignite-entrepreneurs.comSimmons Mediahttps://simmonsmedia.co/ Naamly https://www.naamly.com/

You crushed your year-end fundraising goal… so why does revenue still feel shaky?If you've ever felt uneasy after a successful campaign—like the money came in, but stability didn't—you're not alone. I've been there too. In this episode, I unpack why that post-campaign fragility is so common and what it actually tells you about your organization's fundraising infrastructure.We'll talk about the difference between a revenue spike and a sustainable revenue system, and I'll walk you through how to shift from relying on quick wins to building a Capital Engine™ that creates predictable, long-term stability.Whether you're coming off a big win or staring down your next big push, this episode will help you reframe the problem—and start building smarter.In this episode, you'll learn:Why a successful campaign doesn't necessarily mean your revenue model is strongHow to spot the real reason your funding feels fragile—even when the numbers look goodThe first three steps to move from fragile to resilient3 key takeaways:Year-end campaigns generate momentum—but momentum is not the same as stabilityFragility usually stems from design, not effort—your system can't hold what you're buildingA reliable Capital Engine™ is built on structure, not heroics

There are a lot of year end surprises in store with the 2025 wrap up. The year has come to an end and we are here to discuss everything from year-end reflections and personal anecdotes to a broad market outlook. We focused on the recent surge and volatility in precious metals, especially silver, explaining how futures-market leverage and exchange rule changes (like margin requirement hikes) are used to cool speculative excess, why parabolic price moves are unhealthy, and why investors should be cautious in the near term even if long-term fundamentals remain bullish. We also talked government fraud, rising debt costs, aging demographics, deglobalization, and higher-for-longer rates, arguing that bad asset allocation now carries real risk and diversification with assets like precious metals still matter. We discuss... We challenge simplistic economic cause-and-effect narratives, arguing that inflation, tariffs, and monetary policy outcomes are highly contextual and often misrepresented by official government data. Past periods of QE and low inflation were cited to illustrate how money printing can offset deflation rather than automatically cause inflation, reinforcing skepticism toward consensus forecasts. Large-scale government fraud is pervasive, rarely punished, and structurally embedded, with the prediction that no high-level figures will face consequences in ongoing public scandals. Precious metals, particularly silver, were a major focus due to extreme recent price volatility, including sharp multi-day gains and losses while most investors were disengaged over the holidays. The mechanics of futures markets were explained in detail, emphasizing how leverage works, why margin requirements matter, and how exchanges can legally change rules to stabilize markets. Recent increases in margin requirements for silver, gold, platinum, and palladium were highlighted as a deliberate attempt by exchanges to flush out speculative leverage and cool "animal spirits." Governments and exchanges can escalate interventions dramatically if needed, including forcing cash settlement or changing delivery rules, which would materially alter market dynamics. Banks' growing discomfort with holding U.S. Treasuries and their shift toward gold are a quiet but significant signal about long-term confidence in fiat systems. The contrast between gold (central-bank owned) and silver (primarily investor and industrial owned) explains differing market behaviors and intervention risks. The hosts argued that the era of "cheap mistakes" is over, meaning poor allocation decisions now result in permanent capital loss, not just missed opportunity. AI enthusiasm should be thought of skeptically as large language models are becoming commoditized quickly, lack durable moats, and resemble past tech bubbles. Be cautious, diversify, be skeptical of narratives, have respect for market structure, and prepare for a year where volatility exposes complacency.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump announces that the U.S. America has launched “Operation Hawkeye Strike” in Syria after ISIS ambushed and killed two of our soldiers and an interpreter. Trump promised overwhelming retaliation—and he's delivering—sending jets, helicopters, and artillery to wipe out ISIS fighters and their infrastructure. This is real leadership: when you kill Americans, you pay the price. Also, Ukraine drones blew up a Russian oil tanker. For all the talk of Ukraine losing this war, they are putting up a fight. Ukraine is on the offense! Later, America was founded by Christians—all delegates at the Constitutional Convention and Second Continental Congress were Christian—and Christianity is a tolerant, and humane faith enabling religious minorities to live freely. The Declaration of Independence's references to God stem from Judeo-Christian values, with Christianity heavily influenced by Judaism, as recognized by the founders; modern efforts, like those by Tucker Carlson, to separate the two are a new attack on both Jews and Christians, repudiated as blasphemy by pastors. Americanism is fundamentally incompatible with Islamism. There's an alliance between leftists and Islamists driven by a shared goal of destroying the West, America, its Constitution, and republican system. Afterward, America owes its greatness to the Republican Party, which ended slavery and passed civil rights acts that Democrats wrongly claim credit for, rooted in foundational principles called constitutional conservatism. Without it, the nation would be an awful, dark, lawless place. The party fights to secure borders, promote assimilation, teach true history (good, bad, and ugly), and elect conservatives who embrace national ideals, leading to better quality of life in free states compared to dying blue ones. However, internal threats like Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and Steve Bannon seek to destroy the Republican Party—not just its establishment—and its Judeo-Christian foundations, abandoning the legacy of Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Coolidge, Eisenhower, Reagan, and Trump, without specifying a replacement.
