So, you've got your QBO Accountant account. Maybe you've even got your certifications. Now you're eager to take on clients so you can multiply your income and make bookkeeping your full-time gig.
After that, maybe the plan is to bring on your loved ones so they can get a taste of time freedom too.

Get experience.
Get on-the-job experience without the nail-biting pressure of managing — and potentially messing up — someone's books.

Introducing…
Fast & Easy QBO Gym
The hands-on training academy for experience-hungry bookkeepers who love to learn by doing. Not watching.
Get real-world experience
Certifications are one thing but actually doing the work for a client is another. Now you can work through the same scenarios you'll encounter on the job before you work with the client.
Retain 70% MORE of what you learn
We retain 75% of what we practice vs 5% of what we hear. People hire you for the work you know how to DO, not what you know in theory.

When you join, you'll get:
INSTANT SAVINGS of $300 during this flash sale
INSTANT ACCESS to 12 months of on-the-job experience with a virtual business owner and sample company
Client-getting marketing prompts at the end of every workout
Your profile on BooksMatch, where you can get matched with paying clients based on your activity
Access to NEW advanced training every month once you've completed Year 1
Premium access to our Skills Lab Facebook group (your place to get questions answered!)
"Being able to work through situations that are 'life-like' and get my hands dirty has been such a confidence booster. I feel so much more prepared for that first client call. I've even been able to go back on the exercises and read through the scenarios to see if I can remember the steps without looking."
Kristen
Bookkeeper
"Wow… this is exactly what new bookkeepers need… there is always a pretty significant difference between knowledge you need for an exam and what you need to know to 'do the job.' The fear of getting a client and not really knowing how to do the work is terrifying and your QBO Gym with each exercise dispels that fear just a little bit more."
Shawn
Bookkeeper
"Your hands-on practice gym is the BEST! Nothing beats being able to practice the different steps as you learn how to do them. Just listening alone on how to do something is less effective than actually practicing step by step what you are trying to learn."
Venita
Bookkeeper
Pssst… have you met Craig?
Craig's Landscaping Business
Craig is the simulated owner of a landscaping business. And guess what? He needs YOU to help him with his books.
Each exercise you'll complete for Craig mirrors the tasks you'll do on the job. This means you'll have experience with a wide range of bookkeeping skills when you start working with real-life clients.
Practice the exact steps you'll do for clients
Each "workout" is made up of 4 sets of practice exercises designed to sharpen your skills and get you comfortable working in QBO.
Warm Ups
Watch a short animated video outlining the tasks Craig needs help with. Get familiar with what needs to be done before you dive in.
Cardio
Put into practice all the things Craig has asked you to do. Send invoices, record payments, pay bills — a day in the life of a practicing bookkeeper.
Strength Training
Dig deep into specific QBO features. Sharpen your problem-solving skills by facing real-world challenges like inventory tracking and theft adjustments.
Cool Down
Reconcile Craig's bank accounts — including fixing mistakes and preparing reports. Come back to the step-by-step workflows any time you need a refresher.
Turn your skills into clients with proven marketing prompts
Now you've got some experience under your belt, it's time to share it with the world. Use our post-workout marketing prompts to position yourself as a true QBO ProAdvisor.
No more awkward conversations when clients ask about your experience.
PLUS! Get NEW training every month
Year 2 with AI Craig
When you've completed the Year 1 training program, you'll unlock access to Year 2. Instead of getting spoonfed the steps, you'll complete exercises without prompts.
Our life-like AI version of Craig won't share all the information you need, so you'll have to ask for it. Just like a real client!
"I LOVE this feature. I wish all clients responded as fast as Craig does! It's an awesome addition! It was like I was texting a real client and he was sending what I needed once I got the question right! So cool!"
— Sherry, Bookkeeper
"I loved this! I like that it's more interactive instead of just passively clicking on stuff because I'm told to. I'd forgotten about the difference between using the Category and Item grids, and the quiz helped me catch that. Overall, this is more challenging. Good job!"
— Marceline, Bookkeeper

Margie Remmers-Davis
Hi, I'm Margie. And I've helped thousands of people pass their ProAdvisor certifications and achieve time and money freedom along the way.
I created QBO Gym because it broke my heart to see so many talented bookkeepers miss out on opportunities because they didn't have experience.
Now, you can get on-the-job experience without getting a job.
Did we mention the entire program is gamified?
Stay motivated by collecting points and badges when you complete exercises. Watch your skills stack up as you become more and more attractive to potential clients.
✓ The Gym is RIGHT for you if you…
- ✓Believe practice makes perfect profit. It's important to you that you know what you're doing so clients can trust you with their books.
- ✓Can spare as little as 45 minutes a week to sharpen your skills so you're equipped to take on — and do a great job for — paying clients.
- ✓Enjoy problem-solving. When a challenge pops up, you want to be the person with the answers.
✕ The Gym may NOT be for you if you…
- •Are fine guessing your way through your clients' books. Even if it means getting things wrong and risking an audit.
- •Have no time to take on paying clients — and therefore can't spare as little as 45 minutes to get client-ready in the Gym.
- •Are looking to do the bare minimum. You don't mind turning away leads because you don't have the experience.
