Keo Soko on Tax, Money & Building a Creative Business

This year, This Audio is Visual begins with a renewed focus on strengthening the financial literacy and structural foundations that sustain creative practice. We open the season with an insightful conversation featuring Keo Soko, founder of Simple Slips and a registered tax practitioner, who joins us to unpack the often-overlooked administrative realities of building and maintaining a business in South Africa. Simple Slips is an AI-powered receipt scanning and expense tracking app designed for freelancers and small business owners, helping users organise their finances and prepare tax-ready reports with clarity and confidence. In this episode, Soko brings her expertise to the creative community, addressing the questions many of us quietly carry: What should you consider before formally registering a business? When is the right time to take that step? And what systems should be in place from the very beginning? Together, we explore the practical side of entrepreneurship, from separating personal and business finances to understanding the early decisions that shape sustainable growth. Soko breaks down the realities of starting as a freelancer or solopreneur, the importance of record-keeping, and the administrative habits that protect both your work and your future. This episode was shaped alongside you. Thank you to everyone who shared their questions, your concerns, curiosities, and lived experiences are woven throughout the conversation. As we continue building this space for collective learning, we invite you to keep the dialogue going. Share more questions in the comments, and be part of shaping future conversations.   / thisaudioisvisual     / simpleslips   Filmed by Wandile Ndlovu Edited by Andiswa Mkosi BTS Footage Thozi
