Questions, answered
01
How much does it cost?
You pay a flat monthly fee based on the size and complexity of your books. See our plans on the Pricing page. Your exact fee is confirmed after the free Health Check.
02
What happens in the free Health Check?
We review your books against our 12-point checklist, covering reconciliations, HST, payroll, receivables and more, then walk you through what's working, what isn't, and what to fix first. No cost, no obligation.
03
My books are months behind. Can you still help?
Yes. Catch-up work is common. We bring your books current first, then keep them that way every month.
04
I already have a bookkeeper. How does switching work?
We handle the handover. We get access to your software, review where things stand, and take over from a clean starting point, with no gap in your bookkeeping.
05
What software do you work with?
We're certified in QuickBooks Online, Xero and FreshBooks, and work with tools like Dext, Hubdoc, Plooto, Wagepoint and ADP. Using something else? We'll work with it or help you move.
06
Do we need to meet in person?
No. Everything works online, so we can work with businesses across Canada. If you're nearby, we're happy to meet in person too.
