Project Description

The mission of Canna Bookkeeper™️ is to provide accessible and affordable bookkeeping and marketing solutions to small businesses.  My goal is not just to provide folks a finished project. But to provide clients tools, contacts, applications, resources and reference materials to maintain the projects at no additional cost.  I market to women entrepreneurs, ages 30+ looking to break into the legal Cannabis market. Many hopeful owners I've spoken with are unsure of where to find the necessary resources... that's where I come in!

My continued education and experience has provided me an understanding of the Federal/State Tax Law, Cannabis Laws & Regulations. I have been an advocate for the cannabis plant since 2002. I utilize my insight within the legacy market, and that is what sets my brand apart. 

According to Forbes, the recreational market is expected to be worth $1.2 Billion in sales by 2023, and $4.2 Billion by 2027.  In New York alone, we are expected to generate $245 million by 2024.  As the Cannabis law is written, it encourages women to enter the industry. That sales volume requires a LOT of small businesses opening in a new industry, with a lot of risk. I can help them minimize their  risk, and properly assess opportunities.

I've created invaluable relationships with a local network of small business owners, and hopeful cannabis license holders. I am a cofounder of Women's Cannabis Collective. We are a group of entrepreneurs in the Cannabis industry focused on spotlighting our local market and destigmatizing cannabis consumption.  As Canna Bookkeeper™️ I have been able to work within my clients budget to provide necessary services such as tax preparation, bookkeeping, and marketing. I currently have a roster of 24 clients across New York, mostly focused in the Buffalo | Niagara region.

Any and all funds will be directly allocated to an entrepreneur that needs it... and I don't mean me.  Your funding would provide someone a customized logo, menu, flyers, business cards, bookkeeping services... check out my website for a full list of services. (shameless plug) You can to help an entrepreneur launch a business! Many of my clients can expect to not 'make' any money for the first 3 years. Being able to provide these businesses with services can save them from becoming another failed new business statistic.   

I'm Rosanna St. John, my brand is Canna Bookkeeper™️. It's currently just me, a female entrepreneur taking a risk. I am doing the best I can to devote my energies to clients. I am a wife, and a mother to an energetic and goofy toddler. With funding, I can designate resources to clients, new and old, in need. 

I can do this. I am doing this. I will continue to do this. I can't do this alone.  Your funding will make a difference.  Help entrepreneurs build their business.

Thank you for taking the time to read!

The Campaign FAQs

Is this legit?

Yes, I am a REAL certified bookkeeper. through NACPB. I have a Bachelor of Science from Niagara University, and 15 years experience managing small businesses. Yes, I follow all current laws and regulations, tax and otherwise.  I can advise you on best practices to minimize their impact on your books.

I should be an LLC, right?

WRONG! A business structure is not one size fits all. Just because LLC is right for me, doesn't mean its your best choice. Before you sign anything, let's talk entity considerations.

Can you do my taxes?

No, I'm not able to file your taxes for you. I can prepare your books throughout the year to make tax time with your CPA a breeze.... well, for you at least
