Before we get into the numbers.

Do you work remotely?

Yes — fully remote, serving small businesses across all of Ontario. Wherever you're based in the province, the working process is confirmed during scoping so everything runs smoothly online.

Can you help if my bookkeeping is behind?

That is exactly what catch-up and cleanup work is for. The quote will depend on how many months are outstanding, the number of accounts, and the condition of the records.

How does the pricing work?

Monthly plans are Starter at $349/month, Growth at $649/month, and Established at $1,099/month, based on transaction volume, account count, and payroll size. A one-time $499 onboarding fee applies when you start, and your first consultation is free. Cleanup and catch-up work is separate: $85/hour, or a fixed $1,500–$3,500 quoted up front.

What should I prepare for a first conversation?

Your bookkeeping software, approximate number of monthly transactions and accounts, how far the records are up to date, and the main outcome you need. The brief builder above organizes these details.

Clarity starts with a clean set of books.
