FAQs

What services do you offer?

We provide reliable bookkeeping services, including monthly bookkeeping, payroll coordination, and clear, accurate financial reporting—customized to meet the needs of small businesses, freelancers, and growing companies.

How do you get started with a new client?

We begin with a Discovery Review to understand your business, evaluate the current state of your books, and identify your specific needs. This allows us to recommend the right scope of service and pricing—based on real information, not estimates.

Do you provide pricing upfront?

Because every business is different, we do not finalize pricing until after completing our discovery process. This ensures your quote reflects the actual complexity, transaction volume, and condition of your books.

What information do you review during discovery?

During discovery, we typically review:

  • Bank and credit card accounts

  • Your current bookkeeping setup (if any)

  • Transaction volume and complexity

  • Reporting needs and timing

This helps us determine whether your business needs a cleanup, ongoing bookkeeping, or a combination of both.

Is discovery required before services begin?

Yes. Discovery is a required first step for all new clients. It allows us to confirm we’re a good fit and ensures we can deliver accurate, reliable results from day one.

Do you work with messy or behind books?

Absolutely. Many of our clients come to us with books that are behind or disorganized. Discovery allows us to assess the situation and recommend the most efficient path forward without surprises.

What happens after discovery is complete?

After discovery, we provide:

  • A clear summary of findings

  • Service recommendations

  • Transparent pricing

  • Defined next steps and timelines

There is no obligation to move forward unless it feels like the right fit.

How experienced is your team?

Our team brings over 15 years of combined corporate finance and accounting experience, with backgrounds in strategic finance, accounting operations, and multi‑entity environments.

Who is discovery best suited for?

Discovery is ideal for:

  • New or growing businesses

  • Business owners unsure if their books are accurate

  • Clients switching bookkeepers

  • Anyone who wants clarity before committing to ongoing services
