Small Business Accounting — FAQ
What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?
Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of financial transactions — categorizing income and expenses, reconciling bank accounts, and keeping your records current. Accounting builds on that foundation with financial analysis, tax planning, and reporting. We provide both.
Do I need an accountant or a bookkeeper for my small business?
Most small businesses need both. A bookkeeper keeps your records clean and current throughout the year; an accountant uses those records for tax preparation, financial analysis, and strategic planning. Our team handles both roles so you have one point of contact.
How much do small business accounting services cost?
Our bookkeeping plans start at $200/month for the Foundation tier. Tax preparation starts at $350 for a personal return and $800 for a business return. We offer a free consultation to review your needs and recommend the right plan.
Can you work with my existing QuickBooks account?
Yes. We can take over your existing QuickBooks Online file, clean it up if it has errors, and manage it going forward. We are Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors.
Do you work with businesses outside of Texas?
Yes — we serve small businesses in all 50 states. Our services are 100% remote. You never need to visit an office.
