FAQ

Houston Bookkeeping
Questions Answered

How much do bookkeeping services cost for a small business in Houston?

Monthly bookkeeping for Houston small businesses typically costs $250-$750 per month, depending on transaction volume and complexity. We provide transparent, upfront pricing based on your specific needs. No hidden fees, no surprise charges. Schedule a free consultation and we'll quote your exact monthly rate.

What is catch-up bookkeeping and how long does it take?

Catch-up bookkeeping brings your books current when you've fallen behind on reconciliations and record-keeping. Whether you're 3 months behind or 3 years behind, we can get you caught up. Most catch-up projects take 2-4 weeks depending on how far behind you are and the complexity of your transactions. Once caught up, we transition you to ongoing monthly bookkeeping.

Do you provide QuickBooks bookkeeping services?

Yes, we specialize in QuickBooks Online bookkeeping. We handle setup, cleanup, ongoing reconciliation, and training. If your QuickBooks is a mess with wrong categories and duplicate transactions, we can clean it up. We also work with Xero if that's your preference. If you're not on cloud accounting yet, we'll help you migrate.

How often should a small business do bookkeeping?

Monthly bookkeeping is the standard for most Houston small businesses. This keeps you current enough to make informed decisions, catch issues early, and stay ready for tax time. High-volume businesses may benefit from weekly bookkeeping. We'll recommend the right frequency based on your transaction volume and business needs.

What's the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?

Bookkeeping is the daily recording and organizing of financial transactions - categorizing expenses, reconciling accounts, tracking receivables. Accounting takes that data and uses it for analysis, tax preparation, and strategic decisions. We provide bookkeeping services with CPA oversight, so your records are accurate and ready for tax time without paying full CPA rates for every transaction.

Do you offer bilingual bookkeeping in Houston?

Yes. We serve Houston's diverse business community with full bookkeeping services in English and Spanish. Complex financial discussions are easier in your preferred language. Your questions get answered, your reports get explained, and you stay informed about your business finances.
