Catch-up bookkeeping for small businesses

If you're months behind on your books, you're not the only one. When you run a small business, the work comes first, and the bookkeeping waits until things slow down. Then the slow season fills up too. We catch your books up month by month in QuickBooks Online, then keep them current every month after that.

Common problems in books that have fallen behind

Personal and business spending on the same card

We sort it out line by line, and anything we can't tell from the statement comes back to you as a question instead of a guess.

Customer payments never matched to invoices

QuickBooks ends up showing money as owed that was already paid, or paid when it wasn't.

A pile of uncategorized transactions

Months of bank feed activity sitting in "Uncategorized" or "Ask My Accountant".

Duplicates

The same payment entered by hand and pulled in again by the bank feed.

Accounts that were never reconciled

The QuickBooks balance doesn't match the bank, so none of the reports can be trusted.

Supplier and subcontractor payments with no clear category

The money went out, but the books don't show what type of expense it was.

How a catch-up works

  1. 01

    Get your price, then book a call.

    Get your price in 2 minutes, then book a quick 30-minute call to get set up.

  2. 02

    Send your statements.

    Bank and credit card statements for every month you're behind. If you already use QuickBooks Online, give us accountant access to your file; if not, we'll set one up for your bookkeeping at no extra cost while you're a client. We never ask for your bank login.

  3. 03

    We work through it month by month.

    Every transaction categorized, every account reconciled, and questions sent to you rather than guessed.

  4. 04

    You get caught-up books.

    A profit and loss statement and balance sheet you can hand to your tax preparer or your lender.

  5. 05

    The monthly plan keeps you current.

    After the catch-up, each month's books are closed within the first ten business days of the next month.

What a catch-up costs

Catch-up is a one-time fee: $199 for each month behind on Starter, $349 on Growth and $599 on Established. Custom is priced on the call. For example, four months behind on Starter is 4 × $199 = $796, one time. You'll see an estimate when you get your price, and we confirm it on a quick 30-minute call before anything is billed.

How long does it take?

It depends on how many months you're behind and how quickly the statements come in. We'll send you a timeline once we've reviewed your books.

What we need from you

  • Bank statements for every month you're behind, for every business account
  • Credit card statements for the same months, for every card used for the business
  • If you already use QuickBooks Online, accountant access to your file. If not, we'll set one up for your bookkeeping at no extra cost while you're a client. Bringing past records over from other software is quoted as catch-up.
