You focus on running your business. I'll focus on your accounting.
I keep your accounts reconciled, your categories correct, and your numbers ready whenever you need them — with a person who actually answers when you ask a question.
I work in QuickBooks, Xero, or your existing system, subject to a review of your needs.
If bookkeeping is taking your evenings, falling behind, or leaving you unsure whether the numbers are right, you're in the right place.
Whether you run a cafe or restaurant, a service business, a professional practice, or a growing online company, the bookkeeping process can be built around your needs.
Whether your books need steady upkeep, a serious catch-up, or you'd rather learn to run them yourself, start where your business actually is right now.
Your accounts get reconciled every month and transactions get categorized correctly, so the numbers are ready when you need to make decisions.
Behind on your books, or not confident the numbers are right? I'll find what's missing or miscategorized and get everything current.
Want to keep handling the books yourself? I'll help set up QuickBooks correctly and build a process that holds up as you grow.
Only a few transactions a month? Upload your bank statements and I'll categorize everything and send your monthly reports.
Business Check-Up $350; custom builds from $1,500. Need a dashboard, expense tracker or job-costing tool that fits how your business really runs? I build simple custom tools around your numbers, starting with a free 30-minute call.
Also available: tax prep, business consulting, and grant help.
Cleanup and catch-up runs $150–$300 per month behind, confirmed after a quick review so you know exactly what needs to be done.
Start with a short email or call about your current books and what you need.
I'll look at the current state of your books and identify what needs attention.
Your fixed monthly quote is based on transaction volume and the complexity of your books.
Reconciliations, categorization and review happen consistently each month.
Plans are based on how many transactions you have each month, so you know the price up front.
After a short review of your books, you'll get a fixed monthly price for the plan that fits. Quarterly bookkeeping is available at 75% of your monthly rate, billed monthly.
90-day money-back guarantee: if you're not happy in the first 90 days, I'll refund your fees.
I'm Freddie Belote. I've spent 15 years in accounting, and at this point I know exactly what I wanted to do with that experience: work directly with people, not get buried in a back office.
