Today we are talking to Cameo Ashe, Founder of Lemonade Beach. A business with a funky name, Lemonade Beach is actually an Accounting Firm. 

We discuss the reasons why Cameo chose that name during the episode.

We cover a range of topics throughout this episode including:

• How music is similar to sports in terms of how you learn teamwork. 
• How doing business with family can prove to be problematic.
• Why she doesn’t like to work from home, and the advantage she sees in having an office. 
• First hires and how Cameo has gone about building her team, including challenges she had with outsourcing prior to bringing on internal team members.
• How she works with people she likes and doesn’t tend to bother when she doesn’t see a fit. 
• How she has become cynical of people who try to look wealthy and accomplished on Social Media. As an Accountant Cameo sees the real story behind someone’s finances, and this part of the discussion was quite eye-opening.
• Why some Accounting Firms carry client debt but advise their clients not to do that.

And

• The problems you will run into if you don’t do a cashflow forecast.

A great episode to start off 2022!
