How each month goes

Five steps, in the same order.

  1. I

    One list

    One written list of what I need for the month, so you are never guessing: bank statements, card statements, payroll reports, loan statements.

  2. II

    Every transaction

    Each one sorted and matched to your bank. If I am not sure about something, I ask you. I never guess.

  3. III

    Reconciled

    Your books have to match your bank exactly. The difference is $0.00 or the month is not finished.

  4. IV

    The whole picture

    Old invoices and bills, money sitting where it should not be, your Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet, checked before you see them.

  5. V

    Reports and close

    Your reports come with a short note on what I found. Then the month is locked, so nothing changes by accident.

Three levels

Pick how much you want off your plate.

Prices depend on your volume and accounts, and come from the diagnostic.

How I work with you

Plain rules, in writing.

All of this is in the agreement you sign.

I answer within one business dayThe same day for anything about cash: a payment that has to go out, a deposit that has not landed.
PayrollI record and check what your payroll company runs. I do not run payroll.
Paying your billsAvailable as an add-on, agreed in writing.
Your price only changes in writingIf your business grows or shrinks a lot, the price is worked out again the same way, with thirty days notice.

It costs nothing to find out where your books stand.

We go through your QuickBooks together and I tell you what I see. If your books are clean enough, I will also show you a few quick moves that could put more money in your pocket.
