Foundation: Professional Bookkeeping
Every transaction coded, every account reconciled, and a monthly set of statements with a note on the front telling you what they say. If you’re months or years behind, that’s part of the job, not a reason to turn it down.
Who this is for.
- You’re months, or years, behind on reconciliations.
- You look at a P&L and can’t tell whether it’s right.
- You’re doing the coding yourself at ten at night.
Exactly what you get.
Every transaction coded
Bank, card, and cash, coded to a chart of accounts that matches how you actually run the business, not the default list your software shipped with.
Every account reconciled, monthly
Bank, credit card, and loan accounts tied out to the statement. This is the step that decides whether any other number on the page can be trusted.
Recurring entries posted
Depreciation, prepaids, accruals, and other recurring entries posted every month, so the statements reflect the whole month.
A monthly close, with a note
Profit and loss, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows, plus a short written note on what moved and what to look at. The statements are the deliverable; the note is the reason you read them.
Catch-up, quoted once and finished
If the books are behind, I bring them current before the monthly work starts, with one number for that job up front.

A flat monthly fee, quoted after the free diagnostic. Setup, catch-up, and anything outside your scope are quoted before they start.
