Pay for What You Use, Nothing More
Not every business needs every service. Some need bookkeeping and payroll. Others need reconciliation and reporting only. Quoting a bundled rate that includes services you'll never use isn't in your best interest.
What we consider when building your quote
- Number of AccountsThe number of bank accounts, credit cards, and loans you carry has a direct impact on your monthly rate.
- Starting PointBooks that are months or years behind require a cleanup before ongoing monthly service can begin.
- Transaction VolumeThe volume of transactions each month directly influences the scope of the work.
- Payroll ComplexityEmployee count, pay frequency, and benefit deductions all factor into payroll pricing.
- Job CostingTracking costs by project adds a layer of detail beyond standard bookkeeping and is reflected in your quote.
- Sales & Use TaxRegular sales or use tax filing obligations are included in your service scope and priced accordingly.
- Commingled FinancesWhen personal and business expenses have been mixed together, untangling them takes additional time and is taken into consideration.
- Reporting RequirementsStandard financial statements are included, but detailed reporting by department, job, or location adds to the scope of your engagement.
What to Expect
A Starting Point Before We Talk
Here's an honest look at where our clients typically land.
Monthly Bookkeeping
$200 – $1,200/mo
Several factors go into your monthly rate. Your exact number is determined after consultation.
Payroll Services
$90 – $200/mo
Payroll pricing depends on employee count and how often you run payroll. It can be added to your bookkeeping service or quoted separately.
Historical Cleanup
Monthly rate × months behind
Cleanup is priced by multiplying your quoted monthly bookkeeping rate by the number of months that need to be caught up.
