Here’s how the process works.
Clear & Grounded
Before any bookkeeping, tax work, or advisory decisions can be trusted, your books need to be accurate and properly structured.
That’s why every engagement starts the same way — with a focused review to understand what’s actually happening in your QuickBooks file.
Step 1: Cleanup Review (Start Here)
We begin with a short, focused call to assess whether your QuickBooks file is reliable.
During this review, I look at:
Account structure and setup
Reconciliations and balances
Categorization that affects cash flow and taxes
Reporting accuracy
You’ll leave knowing:
Whether your books can be trusted
Where the problems are (if any)
What it would take to fix them
Step 2: Cleanup (If Needed)
If issues are found, I scope a cleanup project based on what your books actually need — not a generic package.
This may include:
Correcting misclassifications
Reconciling accounts
Fixing structural and reporting issues
Cleaning up historical errors
The goal is accuracy, clarity, and confidence — not just “caught up” books.
Step 3: Clarity & Next Steps
Once cleanup is complete, your financials are:
Accurate
Reconciled
Properly structured
From there, we decide what makes sense next:
Ongoing bookkeeping (to maintain clean books)
Collaboration with your tax professional
Periodic reviews for decision support
Nothing moves forward until the foundation is right.
