Learning new accounting software probably isn’t the reason you started your business. And while there are plenty of courses, videos and tutorials that can teach you the basics of Xero, sometimes you need a little more than a lesson on where to click.
That’s where personalized training comes in. With Accounting by Sal’s 1-on-1 Xero training, you have the opportunity to learn the software while focusing on your business, your questions and the areas where you actually need support.
The Training Is Built Around You
Courses can offer great blocks of knowledge. However, because these types of courses are pre-recorded, they’re made to share the same material with everyone who uses them. That means there aren’t personalization options to help address specific questions or concerns you might have about your unique business.
Our one-on-one training, however, can be adjusted depending on whether you are completely new, already using Xero but struggling with certain areas, or only need help filling knowledge gaps. For example, if you already know how to create an invoice, then you don’t need to sit through an hour-long video learning how to create one just to get one piece of new information 54 minutes in. With our training, you can skip the parts you already know and go directly into learning about what you don’t.
You Learn By Actually Using Xero
Our one-on-one training isn’t about sitting down and watching pre-recorded videos. It’s hands-on training that allows you to use the software while you learn. During the training, we work together within Xero to go over everything you need to know, which means you get hands-on experience with the software with our support right there when you need it.
We feel this is important because there’s a difference between knowing what a feature does and feeling comfortable using it when you’re back at work on Monday without someone watching over your shoulder.
You Can Ask Questions As You Go
With one-on-one training, we don’t move on to the next topic until you understand the current one. If something doesn’t make sense? Stop and ask. Want us to explain it another way? Say the word. If you have a question that’s specific to the way your business operates, in our training, you don’t have to hope a module will eventually cover it. We can tailor the flow of the training to suit how and what you want to learn.
You’re Learning Accounting, Not Just Software
Knowing which button to click is useful. Understanding why you’re clicking it is even better.
You don’t have to be an accountant or a technology expert to utilize this type of software, but understanding more than just the numbers can help you get a better view of how the software and your business are functioning.
Our training can help you better understand the accounting behind what Xero is doing, which means the skills can be more useful than simply memorizing a Xero workflow.
You Can Focus on the Features Your Business Actually Uses
Are there specific or unique features that your business wants to cover? Maybe there’s some areas you want to skip completely because they’re not applicable to you? That’s simple to do with personalized training. Our training can cover areas including:
- Invoicing
- Expenses and revenue
- Financial reports
- Reconciliation
- Payroll
- Automation
- Troubleshooting
- Everyday transactions
You don’t need to spend your training time covering every feature. Instead, we can focus in on the tools and processes that are most useful for how you actually run your business.
Is 1-on-1 Xero Training Right for You?
Our one-on-one training is completely customizable to suit your exact needs with the software, but of course, what you know and want to learn is a great indicator of whether the training will benefit you.
1-on-1 Xero training may be a good fit if you are:
- New to Xero
- Managing your own small business books
- Switching accounting platforms
- Comfortable with some Xero features but struggling with others
- Someone who simply learns better by asking questions and doing things yourself
You don’t have to become an accounting expert overnight. Sometimes you just need someone patient and knowledgeable beside you while you figure it out.
With Accounting by Sal’s 1-on-1 Xero training, you can learn at your level, focus on the skills your business actually needs and get hands-on support along the way.
