Service · Ongoing monthly bookkeeping
Monthly bookkeeping,
finally off your plate.
Every month, Dana categorizes your transactions, reconciles your accounts to the penny, and delivers a clean Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet — so you always know exactly where your money is going, without touching a spreadsheet.
The whole point
Your books, off your plate — and finally telling you something.
Most owners don't want to learn bookkeeping. They want to glance at one clean report and know whether the month worked.
That's what monthly bookkeeping is for. Dana takes the recurring grind — the categorizing, the matching, the reconciling — completely off your desk and turns it into financial statements you can actually read. No more shoebox of receipts, no more guessing at quarter-end, no more "I think we did okay this month."
Because she's a Deloitte-trained auditor and an Advanced-Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor, the work underneath those tidy reports is genuinely rigorous. The output looks simple. The accuracy is anything but.
Inside the monthly close
What actually happens between statements.
"Bookkeeping" is a tidy word for a detailed process. Here's the work Dana does every month so you don't have to.
-
Transactions categorized
Every bank and credit-card transaction is reviewed and coded to the right account — consistently, the same way each month, so your reports stay comparable over time.
-
Accounts reconciled
Your bank and card balances are matched against the books line by line. Reconciliation is the step most DIY books skip — and it's the one that catches duplicates, missing deposits, and errors before they compound.
-
Profit & Loss compiled
A clean P&L showing exactly where revenue came from and where it went — the report that tells you whether the month actually made money.
-
Balance Sheet compiled
A snapshot of what you own and owe, so you (and your lender or CPA) can see the real financial position of the business at a glance.
-
Reviewed & delivered
Dana reviews the finished statements for anything that looks off, then gets them to you early in the following month. How quickly partly depends on having your statements and answers in hand — the smoother that flow, the sooner your numbers land.
How documents reach Dana
Two ways to get her what she needs.
Most months, you'll send almost nothing — the goal is for the books to run quietly in the background while you run the business.
QuickBooks bank sync
Connect your bank and card feeds once, and transactions flow into QuickBooks automatically. After setup, most clients send nothing at all — Dana works straight from the synced feed.
Secure document upload
Prefer to send statements yourself? Drop your monthly bank and credit-card statements into secure, cloud-based software — no email attachments flying around.
The standing rule: Dana needs your bank and/or credit-card statements each month. Whether they sync automatically or you upload them is entirely your call — whatever keeps you focused on your business.
Is this you?
Monthly bookkeeping is the right fit when…
- You're current-ish on your books but tired of doing them yourself
- You want reliable monthly financials to plan and price with
- Your CPA keeps asking for cleaner numbers at tax time
- You're applying for financing and need lender-ready statements
- You'd rather spend your evenings on the business than in QuickBooks
If you're months or years behind, that's a slightly different starting point — Dana will get you current first with a catch-up & clean-up, then roll you onto a smooth monthly rhythm.
