What Service We Offer

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

We provide comprehensive, continuous bookkeeping services designed to simplify your life. With us handling the details, you’ll have more time to focus on what you do best—running your business. No more worries about compliance with CRA, WSIB, or payroll—we’ve got it covered. Plus, you’ll always have instant access to accurate, up-to-date information about your business. In short, we deliver more than bookkeeping; we provide peace of mind and the freedom to focus on what matters most to you.

Bookkeeping

We handle all aspects of bookkeeping to keep your records accurate and up to date. This includes posting transactions such as deposits, bills, and expenses, recording journal entries (e.g., prepaid sales, expenses, and accruals), reconciling POS systems, bank accounts, and credit cards, and managing inter-company balances and reconciliations.

Accounts Receivable/Payable

We ensure your invoices are paid promptly and your bills are handled on time using secure and efficient processes, helping you maintain healthy cash flow.

Payroll Management

We take the hassle out of payroll by setting up your system, adding employees, managing payroll frequencies, and handling TD1 forms and time tracking. From running payroll to preparing source deductions and filing T4s, we cover it all with precision.

QuickBooks Setup

Get started with QuickBooks Online at competitive rates. We set up your account, create a custom chart of accounts, and offer tutorials on creating products, services, and invoices, ensuring you're equipped to manage your financial tools.

Reporting & Analysis

Receive clear and accurate monthly financial statements along with options for regular meetings—monthly, quarterly, or bi-weekly—to monitor performance and cash flow. We also assist with year-end preparation, working proactively with your accountant during tax season.

Technology-Driven Solutions

We leverage cutting-edge technology to streamline communication and ensure your books are audit-ready. Our software securely stores digital copies of your receipts, eliminating the risks of loss, fading, or damage.

FAQ's

What is your hourly rate?

We don’t charge by the hour. Instead, we offer a customized, annual price specifically designed for your bookkeeping needs. We will then bill you monthly (in advance) to match our efforts to your results. This approach eliminates surprises from fluctuating bills and helps you plan your cash flow effectively.

What does your proposal include?

We offer three tailored packages, each designed to address varying business needs. Your proposal will include a customized combination of services and subscriptions specifically aligned with your unique requirements.

What do you need from me to work effectively together?

To ensure smooth operations, we require:

Third-Party Read-Only Bank Access: This lets us connect your bank to QuickBooks, retrieve bank and credit card statements, and track e-transfer activity.
CRA Business Account Access: For compliance and reporting.
Access to Invoicing Software: Any tools you use to manage invoices and billing.

What if I don’t have an accountant?

No problem! We can connect you with a trusted accountant who fits your needs and can seamlessly work with your books.

Will you prepare our taxes?

No, we don’t handle personal or business tax preparation. We focus on providing accurate, well-organized books to your accountant, saving you time and money while ensuring high-quality tax preparation services.

What if I want to stop working with you?

You can cancel our services anytime by emailing us. Upon cancellation, we’ll:

Help you retrieve all your data (it’s 100% yours!).
Guide you on removing our access to your CRA account and QuickBooks.
Provide a detailed review of your books to ensure a smooth transition to your next bookkeeper.

What if my business experiences sudden growth or a downturn?
