Financial support for every stage of your business

Bookkeeping

We keep your books current so you always know where your business stands. Every transaction categorized, every account reconciled, and a clean set of reports at the end of each month.

A good fit for: Owners who are doing their own books at night, or who aren't sure their numbers are right.

• Transaction categorization and review
• Bank and credit card reconciliations
• Monthly profit and loss and balance sheet
• Month-end close on a set schedule
• Organized receipts and supporting documents

Accounting

Beyond day-to-day bookkeeping, we handle the accounting that makes your financials reliable: adjusting entries, accruals, and statements you can hand to a lender, investor or tax preparer with confidence.

A good fit for: Growing businesses that need statements a bank or partner can rely on.

• Accrual adjustments and general ledger review
• Monthly or quarterly financial statements
• Year-end close and handoff to your tax preparer
• 1099 preparation for contractors
• Support for lender and loan reporting

Payroll services

We run payroll on your schedule and keep up with the deposits and filings that come with it, so your employees are paid right and you stay clear of penalties.

A good fit for: Businesses with one employee or fifty that want payroll off their plate.

• Payroll processing weekly, biweekly or monthly
• Payroll tax deposits and quarterly filings
• New hire setup and direct deposit
• Year-end W-2s and W-3
• Payroll entries posted to your books

AP / AR management

We manage both sides of your cash: what you owe and what you're owed. Bills get paid on schedule, invoices go out promptly, and overdue balances get followed up.

A good fit for: Owners losing track of who owes what, or paying bills late because no one has time.

• Vendor bill entry and payment scheduling
• Customer invoicing and payment posting
• Collections follow-up on overdue invoices
• AR and AP aging reports
• Vendor records and 1099 tracking

Budgeting

We build a realistic budget from your history and goals, then compare it to actual results each month so you can adjust early instead of finding out at year end.

A good fit for: Owners who want to plan ahead instead of reacting to the bank balance.

• Annual operating budget
• 12-month cash flow forecast
• Monthly budget-to-actual reporting
• Planning for hires, equipment and other big purchases

Financial analysis

We dig into your numbers to show what is working and what isn't: which services or customers are most profitable, where margins are slipping, and how cash moves through the business.

A good fit for: Owners who have the reports but want to know what they mean for the business.

• Profitability by service, product or customer
• Margin and pricing analysis
• Cash flow analysis and trends
• Key performance indicators tracked monthly
• Plain-language summaries with each report

Management consulting

We have run businesses ourselves, so we look past the numbers to the decisions behind them. We help you think through growth, pricing, staffing and operations with the financial picture in view.

A good fit for: Owners facing a big decision who want an experienced second opinion.

• Growth and expansion planning
• Pricing strategy
• Hiring and staffing decisions
• Process and workflow improvements
• Regular business review meetings

Accounting systems implementation

We help you choose, set up and connect your accounting tools so information flows into your books automatically and your team knows how to use them.

A good fit for: New businesses getting set up, or established ones outgrowing spreadsheets.

• Software selection, including QuickBooks Online
• Chart of accounts designed for your business
• Bank feeds and rules setup
• Connections to payroll, payments and receipt apps
• Migration from spreadsheets or desktop software
• Training for you and your team

Book cleanup

Whether your books fell behind or were never set up right, we catch them up, fix what's wrong and leave you with clean, reconciled records ready for tax time.

A good fit for: Owners who dread opening their books, or who just received a letter from the IRS.

• Catch-up bookkeeping for past months or years
• Correcting miscategorized transactions
• Reconciling every bank, card and loan account
• Clearing out stale AR and AP balances
• Tax-ready financials for your preparer
