20 minutes. No cost, no pressure.

Sample monthly report showing revenue, margin, net income and cash.

  • Advice, not just filing.

    We look at where your business is heading, not only at last year’s return.

  • You work with the owners.

    The two of us do the work and answer your questions. No handoffs, and no starting over with someone new each year.

Business and personal returns handled together, so nothing falls between them.
Multi-location and multi-entity businesses.

How we work

Four steps. No surprises.

  1. Step 1: Intro call.

    Twenty minutes to understand your business, what you need and whether we’re the right fit. If we’re not, we’ll say so.

  2. Step 2: Scope and checklist.

    A written scope, and a document checklist built for your situation, not a generic form.

  3. Step 3: Setup.

    We connect your bank feeds, payroll and the tools you already use, and clean up anything that needs it.

  4. Step 4: Ongoing rhythm.

    Books kept current, deadlines tracked, and a regular check-in on what the numbers are telling you.

Recent engagements, kept general to protect client privacy.

  • Nonprofit impact fund

    The problem
    A new fund making program-related investments needed books that could show its board and the IRS exactly where every dollar went.
    What we did
    Set up QuickBooks Online with nonprofit pricing through TechSoup, connected the bank feeds, and designed a chart of accounts for restricted and unrestricted net assets, program-related investments and functional expenses. Monthly statements and the annual 990 filing are included.
    The result
    Nonprofit-grade books from day one, with an investment schedule that ties directly to the financial statements.
  • Early-stage technology company

    The problem
    The company was doing real development work but had never claimed the federal research credit.
    What we did
    Documented qualifying activities against the four-part test, calculated the credit, and prepared Form 6765 with the return, along with a supporting memo.
    The result
    A credit claim backed by documentation that holds up to questions.
