Bookkeeping & Reporting
You can't make good decisions on numbers you don't trust.
Every good financial decision starts with books that are right. Not "close enough by tax time." Right, every month, closed on time, in a format you can read. Our Bookkeeping & Reporting service fixes the foundation, so when you're ready for forward-looking CFO work, there's something solid to stand on.
Who it's for: owners who don't fully trust what QuickBooks is telling them, companies whose bookkeeper left or who have outgrown a part-time one, businesses getting ready to talk to a bank, and anyone who has asked "where did the money go?" and not gotten a straight answer.
What you get
Monthly bookkeeping: transactions recorded, bank and credit card accounts reconciled, and receivables and payables kept current.
Monthly financial statements: income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement, closed on a set schedule.
A monthly review report: one plain-English page on what changed, why, and what to watch next month.
A clean chart of accounts, set up so your numbers can be read by product line or job, not just by tax category.
How it works and price
1. Clean-up (first 30 to 60 days). We get your books caught up and reconciled, fix the chart of accounts, and set a monthly close date you can count on.
2. Monthly rhythm. Books closed and statements delivered on a set schedule every month, with the review report on top.
3. A short monthly check-in to walk through the report and answer your questions.
Price: $1,000/month. Ready for more than clean books? See Part-Time CFO.
