Stay on Top of Xero Without the Overwhelm

Xero keeps rolling out updates. New features. New screens. New ways to work.

And if you're like most business owners and bookkeepers? You've seen the notifications, thought "I should look into that," and then... life happened.

Join me for a 90 minute live workshop where we slow it all down, walk through the key updates together, and set them up in your Xero file, so you're not putting it off anymore.

This Workshop Is For You If:

  • You have recently logged into Xero and it looks completely different to what you are used to
  • You're a Xero user (new or experienced) who wants to master the latest updates without spending hours figuring it out yourself
  • You're busy and haven't had time to dig into all the new features, but you know you're probably missing out on some time-savers
  • You've watched Xero's quick videos with the fun graphics and background music, but they move too fast and you're left thinking "okay, but how do I actually set that up in my file?"
  • You want to see what's new, ask questions, and make changes in real-time, not just watch and forget.

Here's What We'll Cover

The New
Home Screen

How to edit your Home screen and make it useful for your business. You’ll have a Home screen that works for you, not against you.

We'll cover:

  • The Edit button (and what you can do with it)
  • Task lists and how to manage them
  • Re-ordering and removing what you don't need

Analytics: What Your Xero File Is Telling You

Xero's got graphs, insights, and trends built in, but most people don't know how to use them. Gain confidence in your numbers and what they mean for your business.

We'll cover:

  • How to read the graphs and insights for your business
  • Spotting trends and using numbers to make clear decisions
  • What to look at regularly (and what to ignore)

JAX:
Just Ask Xero

Xero's new "chat support" feature - available right in your file and on the run. Get faster answers when you're stuck, without hunting through help articles.

We'll cover:

  • Using JAX integrated with WhatsApp
  • Using JAX directly in your Xero file
  • What it can do (and what it can't)

Meet Your Educator

Hi, I'm Jodi Porteous – Money and Cashflow Educator, Profit First Accountant, and founder of Unexpected Bookkeeper.

I've been working with Xero and teaching bookkeepers and business owners for years, and I've learnt that Xero videos are great, but they're fast. And when you're already juggling a million things, you don't have time to pause, rewind, and figure it out on your own.

That's why I run these workshops – so we can slow it down, walk through it together, and get it set up properly in your file.

Join me for real-world guidance from someone who uses Xero every single day across 4 businesses:
