Monthly Bookkeeping & Cleanup
Accurate monthly bookkeeping and ledger cleanup for growing businesses in the US, UK and Australia, on a fixed schedule.
Overview
Bookkeeping is one of those tasks that keeps slipping down the priority list until three months are unreconciled and nobody's sure the numbers are right anymore. We take it off your plate on a fixed monthly schedule, in QuickBooks Online, so the books are current when you actually need them, not just when tax season forces the issue.
Who this is for
Growing SMEs without an in-house bookkeeper
Businesses that have outgrown DIY bookkeeping but aren't ready for a full-time hire.
Businesses behind on reconciliations
Companies with months of unreconciled bank or credit card transactions sitting in QuickBooks.
Founders who want clean books before a raise or loan
Businesses that need accurate, current financials before talking to investors or lenders.
Anyone switching bookkeepers
Businesses that need a fresh set of eyes to clean up and take over an existing QuickBooks file.
How It Works
Initial file review
We review your existing QuickBooks Online file to see how current the books are and where cleanup is needed.
Cleanup of backlog
Unreconciled transactions, miscategorized entries, and outstanding items are worked through before moving to a monthly cadence.
Monthly bookkeeping cycle
Transactions are categorized, and bank and credit card accounts are reconciled every month on a fixed schedule.
Monthly report-out
You receive updated financials each month, with anything unusual flagged directly.
Scope of Work
- Transaction categorization and day-to-day bookkeeping
- Monthly bank and credit card reconciliations
- Chart of accounts cleanup
- Catch-up bookkeeping for backlogged periods
