CPA, Bookkeepers & Tax Firm Partnerships 

Focus on Strategy. We’ll Handle the QuickBooks Execution and data entry.

As an accountant, CPA, tax professional, or bookkeeper, you manage high-level strategy, tax compliance, and advisory services for your clients. We understand that your time is too valuable to spend correcting preventable data entry errors or troubleshooting software glitches.

The Challenge: Your clients’ day-to-day internal QuickBooks management can often be inefficient, resulting in incorrect data that creates extra work, wasted hours, and friction during month-end closes or tax season. If you’re looking for dedicated QuickBooks support for CPAs, bookkeepers, accountants, and tax professionals you’ve come to the right place.

The Solution: We provide the technical QuickBooks expertise your clients need to keep their data clean, their systems optimized, and their internal staff trained, ensuring their files are perfectly ready when they reach your desk. We are the trusted referral partner for accounting firms.

Pricing Structure for Accounting Partners

We understand that budget certainly is important for both your firm and your clients. Because every client’s data structure and training needs are unique, we generally utilize two clear pricing models designed for fairness and transparency.

Our primary goal is to provide a higher return on investment by drastically reducing the cleanup time required by your internal team.

Project-Based Fees (Best for Setup & Training)

This model provides a fixed, clear cost for defined outcomes, ensuring the client knows the total fee before work begins.

Service Category Pricing Model When It’s Used
Initial Setup Fixed Project Fee For new businesses or those transitioning to QuickBooks that need complete file structure, Chart of Accounts, and user setup.
User Training Fixed Training Package Fee For 1:1 or small group training on specific modules (e.g., Accounts Payable, Invoicing, Payroll workflows).
Data Cleanup Fixed Project Fee (After Assessment) For known, defined cleanup tasks (e.g., clearing transactions for a specific period or resolving a defined account discrepancy).

Proess Note: For project-based work, we conduct a quick, free initial assessment to define the scope. We then provide a binding quote for your client’s approval.

Hourly Consulting Rate (Best for Troubleshooting & Ad-Hoc Support)

This model is ideal for unexpected, undefined, or brief technical issues where a fixed scope is difficult to establish upfront.

Service Category Pricing Model When It’s Used
Technical Troubleshooting Hourly Rate Diagnosing complex data errors, resolving connectivity failures, or fixing unexpected system behavior.
Ad-Hoc Support Hourly Rate (with 1-Hour Minimum) Quick consultations, Q&A sessions with client staff, or resolving minor, non-critical errors.

Transparency Note: Our hourly service includes clear tracking. We provide time logs and never exceed the maximum hourly thresholdwithout the client’s explicit authorization.

  • No Surprise Billing: We will always confirm the scope and pricing model with your client before starting any billable work.
  • Billing Frequency: Invoices are sent directly to the client upon project approval or at the end of the month for hourly work.
  • Your Benefit: Our fee structure is focused on solving the problem quickly, which minimizes the time your firm spends dealing with the issue and provides you with accurate data sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Accounting Partners

Why should I refer my client to an external expert?

We specialize in project-based solutions (setup, training, QuickBooks data cleanup service) to resolve client-side inefficiencies. This allows your firm to focus entirely on high-value tax and advisory work without being burdened by technical cleanup.

Will you interfere with my client relationship?

No. We strictly focus on technical management and QuickBooks training for client staff. We never provide tax advice or advisory services and always reinforce your firm as the client’s trusted financial advisor.

Which versions of QuickBooks do you work with?

We are QuickBooks experts for all current versions, including QuickBooks Online (QBO), QuickBooks Desktop, and related modules like Payroll.

Do you handle ongoing monthly bookkeeping?

Yes, we do handle ongoing monthly bookkeeping services when needed.

While our core focus is efficiency through QuickBooks expertise (setup, training, and troubleshooting), we offer full-service monthly bookkeeping for clients who require that continuous support.

How do you bill the client?

We primarily bill on a project-based fee or an hourly rate for troubleshooting. A clear scope and estimate are always provided to the client before commencing any work.
