Remote bookkeeping and fractional CFO services

Start with a single cleanup, set up monthly bookkeeping, or bring in fractional CFO support for a decision. Most clients combine more than one, and one consultation covers all of it.

Monthly bookkeeping

What does monthly bookkeeping include?

We take over the recurring accounting work: reconciling bank and credit card accounts, keeping receivables and payables current, and closing the books each month. Before we start, we agree in detail on which tasks we handle and which reports you'll receive.

Who does the work: Brice handles reconciliations, the month-end close, and your reports. Edith manages accounts payable and receivable, follows up on overdue invoices, and answers your questions.

What you get
A consistent monthly reporting package, a clear view of receivables and payables, and books that stay current all year instead of piling up at tax time.

Work that may be included

  • Bank and credit card reconciliations
  • Accounts receivable: invoicing support and tracking what's overdue
  • Accounts payable: organizing bills and keeping payments on schedule
  • Month-end close
  • Monthly reports such as a profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and receivables and payables aging, based on your scope

What onboarding looks like

  1. A kickoff call to agree on tasks, reports, and how we'll communicate
  2. Access to your accounting software and accounts through user invitations, not shared passwords
  3. A review of your chart of accounts and anything left open from prior months
  4. Your first month-end close, followed by a call to walk through the numbers

For the first conversation
Tell us who handles the books today, which tools you use, and which tasks you want off your plate.

Catch-up and cleanup

Can you catch up my bookkeeping before taxes?

Yes. We review which periods are behind, what statements or records are missing, and when your tax preparer needs the books. Then we agree on the cleanup scope and get to work.

If a deadline is close, tell us the date up front. We'll confirm what can realistically be finished before it and handle what your tax preparer needs first.

Scope depends on how far back the work goes and what records are available, so we review the books before we quote.

What you get
At handoff, you receive:
  • A list of the months and accounts we reconciled
  • Any open items that still need your attention, and why
  • The records and reports that are ready for your tax preparer

Fractional CFO and advisory

What does a fractional CFO do for a small business?

A fractional CFO helps an owner plan and make financial decisions on a part-time or project basis. Brice, who holds an MBA, does this work himself. Typical questions include:

  • Can we afford another hire?
  • How much cash will we need over the next three months?
  • What happens if a large customer pays 60 days late?
What you get
A budget, cash flow forecast, or decision model with clear assumptions you can discuss, question, and update as the business changes.

  • Reviewing and interpreting results with you

For the first conversation
Bring the decision you're facing and tell us when you need to make it.

Sales and use tax support

Can you help with sales and use tax records?

Yes. Depending on the engagement, we organize the relevant transactions, track the information your tax team needs, and coordinate the handoff. When a question needs a call to a tax office, Edith makes it.

What you get
Organized supporting records and a clean handoff to whoever handles your filings.

Pricing

Straightforward monthly pricing based on how much help you need, with a quote confirmed before any work starts.

Monthly essentials

About 6–8 hours of work a month

Typically $700/month

For businesses with a manageable number of accounts and transactions that need clean, reconciled books and a monthly close.

Weekly support

About 6–8 hours of work a week

Typically $2,200/month

For busier businesses that need hands-on support every week, including more transactions, receivables and payables follow-up, and regular reporting.

Cleanup and CFO projects

Quoted per project

Catch-up and cleanup is quoted after we review how many months are behind and what records exist. Forecasts, budgets, and financial models are priced by project or as ongoing monthly advisory.

Prices are typical, not fixed. Your quote is set after the consultation, based on your accounts, transaction volume, and the tasks you hand off.

How the cost compares with a full-time hire

50–60% less

than a typical full-time hire for the same role.

Compared with the total cost of employing someone full time in the same role, including wages, payroll taxes, and benefits. Your figure depends on the scope of work.

A worked example

Monthly wages for a full-time bookkeeper at $24.36 an hourabout $4,200
Monthly cost including payroll taxes and benefitsabout $6,000
Our weekly support tier, per month$2,200
Differenceabout 64% less

Hourly wage: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics median for bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing clerks, May 2025. Benefits and payroll taxes: BLS private-industry average, where wages are about 70% of total compensation (June 2026). If you're comparing with a part-time hire, the numbers are different, and we'll walk through your situation during the consultation.

Need more than one of these?

Most clients do. Reach out once, tell us what's going on, and we'll shape a scope that covers it.
