Do you only bookkeep in QuickBooks? +
Yes, currently we specialize in QuickBooks. Most small business CPAs prefer QuickBooks as the standard, and there hasn’t been sufficient demand for other platforms.
My books are a mess…can you help? +
Absolutely. We take on projects of all sizes and work closely with you to gather necessary information. We approach cleanup projects systematically, year by year, ensuring progress and clarity as we go.
I have a new business, how can YourQBGuru help? +
We excel with new businesses by setting up your Chart of Accounts correctly from the start and maintaining them as needed. We have processes in place that will help get your regular statements to us, and remind you on sales tax payments, quarterly taxes reminders, and annual report reminders. If you don’t already have a QuickBooks account, we can recommend the correct product and even offer regular discounts (not just promotional).
Is it important to keep my books up to date? +
Yes! We strongly advise all clients to keep their books current. Imagine needing a business loan where up-to-date books are a requirement. Rest assured, we have you covered. Additionally, having your books up to date will allow you to look at your business numbers and help you make better business decisions to increase your profit. Finally, tax time is much smoother if your books are kept regularly. We work with you to answer questions throughout the year, so the transition of your financials to your CPA is seamless.
What if I have someone in-house entering all of my accounts payable and receivable? Do I still need a bookkeeper? +
Yes. Even with internal support, we ensure your payroll liabilities are managed, identify new liabilities, reconcile accounts monthly, and review your balance sheet and profit and loss regularly. In short, there is more to bookkeeping than accounts payable and receivable. If you have someone who already does all of this work, you can consider us a second set of eyes and identify issues, and recommend solutions. We look at your books at a higher level, we recommend this quarterly.
When is the best time to hire a bookkeeper? +
Now! If you are thinking about hiring a bookkeeper, there is a reason. Don’t wait until issues escalate—let us handle your bookkeeping so you can focus on growing your business.
I don’t have control of my costs and I don’t understand my cash flow. Can you help? +
Yes, we can. We don’t just reconcile your books. We take a deep dive into your profit and loss using comparison analysis. We can see patterns in your money in and money out to help you with cash flow and budgeting. Check our services page to see how else we can help you.
Why pay for YourQBGuru to handle bookkeeping, why outsource? +
Outsourcing your bookkeeping with us saves you from hiring additional staff and incurring extra costs like payroll taxes, office space, and equipment. It allows you to focus on other critical areas of your business while we take care of the numbers.
