Working approach

From messy to clean, step by step.

Every engagement moves through the same four steps, so you always know where your books stand.

  1. 01ReviewI open the file and find what is broken: duplicates, miscoded entries and unreconciled accounts.
  2. 02PlanWe agree the scope, the timeline and the price before any work starts.
  3. 03Clean & reconcileEvery account is matched to its statements until the difference is zero.
  4. 04Keep it cleanMonthly bookkeeping keeps the books closed and balanced from then on.
