Bookkeeping, Small Business Accounting
Tax Planning & Prep (Business & Personal)
Bookkeeping
Bookkeepers work in chronological order and record financial transactions on a daily basis. If you handle the bookkeeping yourself, then you know that missing a day or a week can put you seriously behind.
Bookkeeping can be overwhelming if you don't have a daily and weekly process to record expenses and make journal entries. There is a HUGE difference in profitability between business who have accurate bookkeeping processes and those who don't. As the famous saying goes, in terms of measuring success, its not how much money your business makes, but how much it keeps. In other words, a good bookkeeper can capture and classify all expenses properly and in ways that help reduce your tax burden.
In our new clients, we often see a profitability improvement of 5%-10% in the first year just be capturing and classifying expenses properly. There is no risk in reaching out to us. We will listen to your business story, current challenges & future goals and then explain how our expertise can help improve your profitability.
Small Business Accounting
People always ask us if accounting and bookkeeping are the same and there's an important distinction between the two. Bookkeeping records financial transactions in your general ledger. It's very important but extremely time consuming work that you can fall behind on if you're not careful. Accounting is a step up in expertise from that because it interprets, classifies, and then analyzes your financial performance. Essentially, bookkeepers record financial transactions and lay the foundation for accountants to analyze the performance. We have some of the most talented accountants you'll ever meet. They know all the tips and techniques to help your business grow profitably.
Tax Planning & Prep (Business & Personal)
Business: You work hard to keep your business operating profitably, but if you're not careful, a few oversights on the classification of expenses or deductible business expenses and you could inadvertently give back all your take-home profit back to the IRS. Please don't do that. Multi-million dollar corporations hire specialized tax attorneys and massive accounting firms to ensure they pay almost no corporate income tax. You need a professional team on your side that works all year long (every week, every month and every quarter) to ensure that your business is structured properly and accounts for its expenditures in a way that ensures the absolute lowest tax liability is achieved. We're very good at what we do, and we make tax time a low-stress environment because we plan and strategize for it all year long. Call us to see how we can help you.
Personal: As the business owner of either an LLC or an S Corp, your personal tax return liability is directly tied to your business tax return. We specialize in doing not only your business returns, but also your personal tax return because we can often help you think through the positioning of business assets and profits in ways to minimize your personal tax liability. The cost is nominal and your savings account with thank us later, lol.

IRS Tax Problem Management
Don’t ignore your IRS tax problems, -it’s not going to go away with time and their systems will always remember you’re out there and owe them money. Ignoring the issue will only make it worse. A lot of people we see with these problems are terrified, stressed-out, and have no idea how to approach solving their problem.
We can definitely help you.
QuickBooks Accounting
QuickBooks is a commonly used and prolific accounting software. While the software is very well known, you will come to learn that it has a very steep learning curve. There are lots of online tutorials and books you can buy to teach you the basics, but they all require a bit of time and money. Once we on board you as a client we will either create a new Quickbooks (QB) instance and start from scratch OR you can zip your QB file and email it to us and we will rebuild your books into professional formats using your historical data.
Payroll Services
Payroll can be the most time consuming and stressful part of a business owner's monthly activities. If you handle payroll yourself, you may be following all the required monthly employment reporting and tax payments. Payroll as an activity does not generate revenue for your business, and as a small business owner, it's highly recommended you outsource this to professionals who handle this topic everyday and twice as fast as you could.
If we handle your books and monthly financials, it's better for your business if we handle payroll processing too. There are a few reasons for this: (a) We know payroll is done correctly (b) we have immediate access to all the reports we need and (c) you stay out of trouble because reports are submitted online and tax payments are made automatically. Plus, the expense is bundled so you save money having it all in one place.

When should you hire a bookkeeper?
All small business owners begin with the goal of delivering the best product or service. Bookkeeping is rarely first & foremost on their mind. Most business owners sign up with Quickbooks & begin with the intent to do the work themselves. Although Quickbooks appears easy to use, most small business owners really struggle to keep up because they’re lacking in accounting experience. There have been studies that estimate that small business owners to manage their own financial books, spend 10 hours per week on it. 10 hours per WEEK is a lot, when you consider all the other critical activities an owner needs to be focused on, -specifically revenue generating activities. Its really important that the business owner can answer the following q’s before trying to do all the bookkeeping themselves:
