Frequently Asked Questions
-
I primarily support small businesses, startups, and solopreneurs across a wide range of industries — including legal services, property management, e-commerce, insurance, consulting, and more. If you're wearing too many hats or struggling to stay on top of operations, I'm here to help.
-
In addition to providing full-service support in bookkeeping, payroll, HR coordination, and compliance, I bring over five years of real-world experience in small business operations — plus a background in psychology and legal administration. This gives me a unique edge: I support your business with systems and strategy while communicating in a clear, thoughtful, and client-centered way. My work is grounded in integrity, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to your success.
-
I offer tailored support in the following areas:
- Bookkeeping & accounting (monthly reconciliations, financial reports, QuickBooks setup)
- Payroll coordination (W-2 and 1099 onboarding, PTO tracking, provider management)
- HR & compliance (employee documentation, business license renewals, SOP development)
- Business operations (workflow audits, time-saving systems, process automation)
- Administrative support and special projects -
My services are fully customizable — whether you need ongoing bookkeeping, a compliance cleanup, or help training a new employee, I’ll tailor a scope of work that fits your needs and budget.
-
Both. Some clients need a one-time systems overhaul or a quarterly cleanup; others prefer ongoing monthly support. We’ll build a plan that works best for your business.
-
I offer hourly and project-based pricing depending on the nature of the work. My rates are designed to be affordable and fair for small businesses — no bloated retainers or surprise charges.
-
Yes! Whether you're launching or scaling, I can build and adapt systems that grow with you — from adding new team members to introducing automation or more advanced financial reporting.
-
Yes, all clients sign an engagement agreement that outlines the scope of services, rates, and terms. This ensures transparency and alignment from the start. However, the contract can be terminated at any time by the client.
-
No — I do not offer tax preparation or CPA services. However, I prepare your books and documentation so that year-end tax filing is easy and seamless for your CPA. I’m also happy to collaborate directly with your tax preparer as needed.
-
Absolutely. I’ve helped several clients clean up and categorize months (or even years) of neglected records. I’ll get your books back in shape and help implement better systems going forward.
-
Yes! All of my services are offered remotely, which allows for flexible support no matter where your business is based. I use secure, cloud-based platforms to keep things efficient and organized. We are also available for in-office support for a small additional fee.
-
Yes — if I know how to do the job, I’m happy to train your team so they can eventually manage things in-house. I also offer documentation and SOPs to make that transition easier.
-
I stay flexible based on your preferences — email, phone, Zoom, shared project dashboards, etc. I keep things organized and responsive so you always know where things stand.
