What kind of accounting services do you provide?
I'm happy to:
complete compiled financial statements,
prepare annual business tax filings,
payroll, payroll reporting, payroll taxes,
regular bookkeeping, sales tax, bank reconciliations,
customer invoice creation, vendor billing recording, processing payments related to AR and AP,
regular/scheduled internal reporting, assistance in analyzing your reports,

With discussion, I may be willing to perform an internal audit for businesses with an in-house bookkeeping staff.
I am happy to travel to you, for standard travel related fees (airfare billing, mileage billing for driving trips, lodging, etc). I can also work from my location using secured VPN access.
Why is it so important for businesses to hire a great accountant?
Accounting should be an investment, not just an expense. A great accounting team will easily save you money (or even earn you money) in the long run!
A good bookkeeper will keep your accounts current (both customers who owe you money, and vendors you owe money to) --- this saves you in late fees & interest if you were to utilize a loan or credit card while waiting for a customer to pay you. It also saves you money from potential late fees from vendors!
A good payroll processing agent will save you money as it relates to timely payroll tax remittance, payroll tax form filings, and even saving you money on training employees!! Employees are more likely to stay at a company who pays them on time, without errors.
A good accounting professional will be proactive when they see income declining or expenses rising. They'll help you brainstorm ways to curb your shrinking profit margin.
What do you love most about your job?
I love spotting trends & patterns, analyzing data, seeing how everything is interconnected.
I also love testing myself to see just how fast I can enter data (and not have mistakes --- yes, I still check my work, just like in 3rd grade!)
What inspired you to start your own business?
After working in a CPA firm for a few years & seeing they charged nonprofit clients $250 per hour for basic bookkeeping and payroll services I completed, I felt ashamed to have not warned the clients of that charge up front, before I started working with them. I also saw the firms were charging over $300 per hour to their for-profit clients for services I was completing. Their auditing fees were even more outrageous!
Of course, I was receiving a mere fraction of that amount, on a salary working 50-70 hours per week (busy season seemed to be year round!).
It just seemed "wrong" to charge that much for services. Most of those charges were going to general office staff, astronomical building rent, fancy car payments. So not only were the clients being over charged, but the individuals doing the hard work were being underpaid.
I pride myself on charging far, far less for comparable services. Now we both win. You save money on accounting services, I earn a little more money for the services I provide.
Why should our clients choose you?
While I consider myself to be non-confrontational and I strive to lessen the blows I have to deliver to people, I do have a strong military based back ground and I am very much a straight shooter.
Some may consider my approach to be too blunt for sales, but I'm not here to sell you on something. I'm here to keep your business going and to ensure you always know where you stand financially.
Annual Financial Compilation
Once per year, after your close of business, an annual financial compilation can be completed. These annual reports are most generally used by banks to issue loans. They also serve as a guide for annual tax preparation.
Internal Reporting
Once per month, after the close of the month, regular internal reports can be generated for your review & your reference.
I am also able to assist in analyzing these reports with you, so you understand what each number means. Over time, you will also be able to spot your own trends!
Full Service Bookkeeping Services
I am able to record your sales data, ensure clients are billed for services, process sales tax reports and filings, remit tax payments, receive and record vendor billings, process deposits from clients, process payments to vendors, and complete credit card and bank reconciliations. I will also generate year end tax forms.
Payroll Services
I can process payroll for employees, monitor paid time off balances, file payroll tax reports, remit payroll taxes, and generate year end payroll tax forms.
Crisis Accounting
"Catch Up" accounting services for those companies with recent turnover & turmoil, as well as those companies who had every intention of bookkeeping (but falling behind).
It's your job to run your business, it's my job to record your business.
