Most accountants are so busy they barely have time to live their lives. If you run a remote accounting or bookkeeping practice, one reason you started that endeavor may have been because you wanted to strike a better work-life balance.

Now, you have so much busywork to do, including filing reports, data entry, and filling out tax returns, that you are still working nearly 80 hours a week -- without much to show for it.

Our advice? Let a machine help you.

In the dawning age of artificial intelligence (AI), this innovative technology has its place in accounting, especially in the Cannabis accounting niche where you have enough to worry about while trying to keep your clients compliant amid so many changing rules and regulations.

In episode 77 of The Cannabis Accounting Podcast, DOPE CFO founder Andrew Hunzicker, CPA sits down with Jody Padar, CPA and VP of strategy at Botkeeper, a full-suite AI accounting solutions company. She discusses the growing importance of adopting AI to innovate and transform bookkeeping or accounting operations and how removing this “grunt work” is the key to living your best life.

Key points Andrew and Jody discuss include:

How artificial intelligence (AI) can transform your Cannabis accounting practice and free up your life: whether you run a solo remote Cannabis accounting practice or a larger firm that serves many industries, AI can streamline your processes and help you focus on strategic advisory services or other high-level offerings (allowing you to strike more of a work-life balance while earning higher rates)

The benefits of Botkeeper: Botkeeper is an AI and machine learning technology solution for bookkeepers and accountants that fully automates reporting and data entry to innovate your workday (as VP of strategy at Botkeeper, Jody talks about how Botkeeper will make life easier for both you and your clients)

Why AI and Cannabis are a perfect match: people working in or with Cannabis and AI are early adopters, the pioneers who see greatness in budding markets (we’ll talk about how Cannabis accountants entering the space can 10x their business goals with AI solutions)
