The Spiro Podcast: Managing your Real Estate Photography & Videography Business22 Heinä

The Oh-So-Wonderful Topic of Personal Finances

Busy season can make your real estate media business feel flush—until the slower months expose what you failed to plan for.

Todd and Craig break down how to calculate your true monthly spending, budget across an entire year, prepare for taxes and irregular expenses, and avoid making emotional purchases after a strong month. They also discuss saving for future vehicles, investing, giving, and why hiring a bookkeeper does not remove your responsibility to understand the numbers.
