Most clients find us through a friend who stopped dreading tax season. We stay small on purpose, so you always talk to the same two people, and they always know your file.

Every client gets a named bookkeeper who does the monthly work and a partner who checks it. When you call, you get someone who already knows your numbers.

I used to lose a weekend every quarter to receipts. Now I forward them from my phone and that is the end of it. The quarterly call alone is worth the fee.

They found the mess my last bookkeeper left, fixed it in a month and never once made me feel silly about it.

Our family return used to be a February argument. Now it is a fifteen minute call and a signature.

Questions

Fair questions.

Anything else? Call 555-0117 and a real person picks up.

What does it cost?

Most small businesses pay between $149 and $690 a month, depending on transactions, people and filings. You get one fixed monthly price before we start, and it only changes if your business does.

Can you fix books that are behind?

Yes, catch up work is one of our favourite jobs. We quote it as one fixed price, tidy everything up, then move you onto a monthly plan.

Will you look for deductions?

Always. We look for every deduction and credit you are entitled to, and explain what we claimed and why, in plain words.

Do I need special software?

No. We work with the bank feeds and tools you already use, and if you have none, we set up something simple with you.

Can we meet in person?

Whenever you like. Our office is on the north side, and we are just as happy on a video call or at your shop counter.
