Behind on your books? Let’s get you caught up.

However far behind you are, it’s fixable. I clean up and reconcile your books, set QuickBooks up the right way, and keep everything current month after month, so tax time stops being a scramble.

Your books, caught up

Month-end checklist

  • Bank accounts reconciled
  • Credit cards reconciled
  • Every transaction categorized
  • Books up to date
  • Ready for tax preparation

If your books are behind, you’re in good company.

The business got busy, the receipts piled up, and catching up started to feel bigger every month. That happens to a lot of good, hardworking people, and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed at anything. It just means it’s time for some help.

You don’t need to tidy up before we talk. Bring your books exactly as they are, and we’ll figure out the next step together.

Bookkeeping services

Three ways I can help, depending on where your books are today.

Book Clean-Up Projects

I specialize in getting books up to date and reconciled in time for tax preparation.

Whether you’re a few months behind or you’ve lost track of when you last looked, I’ll work through it, reconcile your accounts and hand you books your tax preparer can actually use.

QuickBooks Setup & Support

For anyone looking to start using QuickBooks effectively.

Starting fresh or untangling a setup that never quite worked? I’ll help you set QuickBooks up the right way for how your organization actually runs, and be there when you have questions.

Monthly Bookkeeping Services

Now accepting new clients.

Once your books are current, I keep them that way every month. You get clean, organized numbers all year, and tax season becomes just another month instead of a mad dash.

Who I work with

Churches

Clear, organized books so your leadership can make decisions with confidence, and your staff and volunteers can focus on ministry.

Non-profits

Records that stay in order, so you can put your energy into the mission and be ready when it’s time to report.

Small service-based businesses

For owners who would rather spend their time serving customers than sorting transactions at the kitchen table.
