Let's Get Started
Initial Steps
Introductions
-
After filling out the form on the Home page, you will receive an email to set up your FREE Initial Consultation. This is how I get to know you and your business and its needs. This will take about an hour.
-
If you are in the Kansas City area, this meeting can be done in person. Otherwise, I use Zoom to communicate with my clients.
-
What is Zoom?
-
Zoom is a free Video Conferencing program much like Skype or Google Hangouts. This will allow us to speak face-to-face so we can better understand each other’s needs.
-
Zoom will need to be downloaded onto your computer before our consultation.
-
-
Proposal & Engagement Letter
-
After I’ve made my initial assessment, you will then receive a proposal listing my recommendations and pricing options.
-
Why no Standard Pricing or Packages?
-
No business is the same. Just as a mechanic does not quote a repair before inspecting, I too need to know what your needs are prior to providing a quote.
-
-
-
Once you accept the Proposal, you will be sent an Engagement Letter. This is our contract. Once signed and payment received, my services will start immediately.
-
I require pre-payment every month for my services through ACH (Automated Clearing House).
-
My Commitment
-
I set up a Zoom meeting monthly to review your finances.
-
This includes presenting the three Financial Reports | Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and Statement of Cash Flows
-
These three reports answer the questions you want answered:
-
What is the Equity in my business?
-
What was my Profit for a certain time period?
-
Where did my Cash come from and go?
-
Is my business Financially Healthy?
-
-
-
I will address any questions, concerns, or comments you might have about your business.
-
Confidentiality
-
A Bookkeeping Professional gains access to certain confidential or proprietary information of a client. Such confidential information can include information concerning the business, affairs, products, marketing, systems, technology, customers, end-users, financial affairs, accounting, statistical data belonging to a client.
-
I will never, ever disclose such confidential information to third parties or use such confidential information for any purposes whatsoever, other than the performance of its obligations.

What's Included
QuickBooks Online Subscription
-
I am a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. This is my software of choice for managing business finances and I am proud to include this service at NO COST to my clients. That right! You will have complete access to QuickBooks Online (QBO) at no cost to you.
-
Already have a QuickBooks Online account? No problem! I can take over your account and have your monthly subscription billed to me.
-
-
Your transactions are transferred straight from your bank into the QBO software. This does not give me access to your bank accounts, so I am not able to transfer money or do anything to your actual bank account.
-
QBO is available as a mobile app in which pictures of receipts and invoices can be uploaded and added to transactions.
No Long-Term Contracts
-
Either party can terminate the contract with a 30-day notice in writing.
-
My goal is to relieve your financial stress. You shouldn’t have to feel stressed over a long-term contract either!
-
As your business grows, you may demand greater bookkeeper involvement. You’ll never see a price increase without at least a 30-60-day notice.
