Prefer to send a message?Our process
Start with the records behind the reports.
The work begins with what is available. We review source records, reconcile bank and credit accounts, and compare sales records with cash and card deposits where applicable.
Identify what needs attention
As applicable, we review fees, payroll, sales tax, and liabilities. We identify missing support and differences, then discuss proposed corrections with you.
Hand off clearly
We explain what was resolved, what still needs your decision, and what is ready to move into ongoing monthly bookkeeping.
Restaurants
Deposits are only part of the sales story.
A card processor deposit is not necessarily the same as gross sales. Tips, sales tax, refunds, processor fees, and cash can affect the totals. When the records are within the agreed scope, we compare POS activity, settlements, and bank deposits to identify differences worth reviewing.

Follow the work from invoice to payment.
For service businesses, we can review invoices, payments, receivables, expenses, and loan balances where applicable. The aim is to understand what the available records support and what needs clarification before monthly work continues.
The scope and price depend on the condition and availability of your records. Amended tax returns, if needed, are separately scoped. Please do not send financial or tax records through the public contact form.
Ask about your recordsCommon questions
Before we begin.
How far back can you clean up books?
That depends on which records are available and what needs attention. We discuss the period and scope after learning where your books stand.
What records should I have ready?
Be prepared to describe what you have, such as bank and credit records, sales summaries, invoices, payroll information, and prior reports. We will discuss a secure way to share anything needed; do not send records through the public form.
Does cleanup include amended tax returns?
No. If amended returns appear necessary, they are discussed and scoped separately.
