Renaissance Center, Detroit
Metro Detroit
It is Sunday night in Metro Detroit and the kitchen table is covered in receipts from the glove box, the email inbox and the bottom of a work bag. The bank says one number, QuickBooks says another, and you cannot tell which jobs paid for the month and which ones quietly lost money.
With a bookkeeper on your account, those receipts get snapped on your phone the day they happen and matched to the bank feed by someone who does this every day. Each transaction lands in the right category, each deposit ties back to a customer, and the month gets reconciled and closed without you touching it.
Sunday goes back to being Sunday. Around the middle of each month a clean profit and loss shows up in your inbox, you know which jobs carry the business, and when your tax preparer or banker asks for numbers you just forward them.
Tap the ones that sound like your week.
269 moving companies operate in Metro Detroit. Clean numbers and steady systems are what let one of them pull ahead.
The names a customer compares you with, by Google review count.
A short call and a read-only look at your QuickBooks and bank accounts so we know where things stand.
We clean up the chart of accounts, connect bank feeds and set rules so transactions land in the right place.
We reconcile every account and send your reports by the middle of the following month.
A short monthly call to walk through what the numbers say and answer your questions.
What we report every month: Days to close each month, Uncategorized transactions left open, Gross margin by service line, and Questions from your tax preparer at year end.
A bookkeeper records every dollar in and out, matches it to the bank and closes the month so the reports are true. That is different from tax work. The bookkeeper keeps the books right all year, and your tax preparer uses those books to file. When the bookkeeping is solid, the return goes faster and costs less.
Price comes down to volume and complexity: how many bank and card accounts you have, how many transactions run through them, whether you track jobs or locations and whether payroll and sales tax are involved. Books that are behind need a catch-up first, which is quoted on its own. After a short call we quote a fixed monthly fee so there are no hourly surprises.
A bookkeeper handles the day-to-day recording and the monthly close. An accountant or CPA reads those numbers, plans taxes and files returns. Most small businesses need both, and the bookkeeper is the one who makes the accountant's time worth paying for.
QuickBooks Online is where we do most of the work because bank feeds, receipt capture and your tax preparer all connect to it. If you are on QuickBooks Desktop, Xero or spreadsheets, we can move you over or work where you are. The software you run the business on, like ServiceTitan, Jobber, Dentrix or Square, can sync invoices in so nothing gets typed twice.
Ask who actually touches your books each month and how fast they answer a question. Ask to see a sample month-end package, and make sure they reconcile every account, not just checking. A good bookkeeper also tells you when something looks off, like a vendor charging twice or a customer payment that never landed.
Cheap on paper, but it eats nights and weekends, and small errors pile up until tax season exposes them.
Great once there is enough work to keep someone busy all week, but costly to hire, train and cover when they leave.
A bookkeeping team that closes your month on a set schedule, in your software, for a fixed monthly fee.
