Pricing
A fixed monthly fee, sized to your business.
Before you look at price
What is your bookkeeping problem actually costing you?
Hint: it's not what you're paying for your accounting.
The real cost of messy or unreliable books never shows up on an invoice. It shows up everywhere else.
- Your own timeEvenings and weekends spent on the books instead of running the business.
- TurnoverEvery time someone on your accounting team leaves: recruiting, retraining, and months of catch-up.
- Money left on the tableUncaught overcharges, duplicate payments, and vendor credits nobody claimed.
- Penalties and missed filingsLate sales tax or 1099 filings and lapsed coverage that cost more than getting it right.
- Decisions made on the wrong numbersPricing, hiring, and growth calls based on reports you can't fully trust.
- Failed audits and stalled dealsCleanup before a loan, an audit, or a sale, and lost credibility with lenders, investors, or a DCAA auditor.
None of these show up on an invoice. All of them show up in your results.
