Who This Is For

Small business owners, independent contractors, single-member LLCs, S-corporations, partnerships, landlords managing rental properties, restaurants, retail stores, mobile service businesses, and startups that need organized books but do not need a full-time accountant. Most of our bookkeeping clients are Jacksonville-area businesses doing between $50K and $2M in annual revenue.

How the Process Works

We connect to your QuickBooks file or set one up from scratch. Each month, we categorize transactions, reconcile bank and credit card accounts, review anything uncategorized or duplicated, and deliver a clean set of financial statements. You get a profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow summary every month. If something looks off — a spike in an expense category, a missing deposit, a vendor charge that does not match — we flag it before it becomes a tax-time surprise.

Catch-Up & Cleanup

Months or years behind? We specialize in catch-up work. We go through bank statements, credit card records, and receipts to reconstruct your books accurately. This is one of the most common services we provide to Jacksonville businesses. Typical cleanup projects take two to six weeks depending on how far behind the books are and how many accounts are involved. Once the catch-up is done, we transition into monthly maintenance so you do not fall behind again.

What You Need to Get Started

Read-only access to your bank and credit card accounts (or PDF statements), your QuickBooks login if you already have one, and any prior-year financials or tax returns you have on file. If you are starting from zero, that is fine — we build the file from scratch and backfill from your bank records.

Why Bookkeeping Matters for Tax Season

Clean books mean faster, cheaper, and more accurate tax returns. When your records are organized monthly, your tax preparer is not spending billable time reconstructing a year of transactions in March. That keeps your preparation cost lower and reduces the risk of missed deductions or misclassified income. Most of our tax preparation clients who also use monthly bookkeeping see a noticeably smoother filing season.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does monthly bookkeeping cost? Pricing depends on transaction volume, number of accounts, and whether catch-up work is needed. We provide a clear monthly quote after reviewing your situation — no surprises.

Can I keep doing some of the bookkeeping myself? Yes. Some clients handle day-to-day categorization and we do the monthly reconciliation and review. Others hand everything off. We set up whatever arrangement works for your business. If you also need payroll, we align both workflows so the payroll entries land correctly in your books.

Scope

Bookkeeping services cover record organization, categorization, reconciliation, and QuickBooks support. We do not perform audits, attestation services, or certified financial statement preparation. For audit-level services, consult a CPA firm.
