QuickBooks & Xero Bookkeeper | Free Cleanup Diagnostic in 48 Hrs
Are your books behind, unreconciled, or a mess your accountant keeps sending back? Send me your file and within 48 hours I'll tell you exactly what is wrong, how far behind you are, and what it will cost to fix. That diagnostic is free. I'm an ACCA Fellow (FCCA) with 10+ years in bookkeeping, 146 completed Upwork projects at 100% Job Success, and 2,900+ tracked hours. Cleanup and catch-up is what I do most: 2,000+ bank and credit card reconciliations, including a rebuild covering 5 years and roughly 10,000 transactions, completed in 4 months. WHAT I FIX - Months or years of unrecorded transactions (catch-up bookkeeping) - Bank, credit card, and PayPal/Stripe accounts that won't reconcile - Miscategorized income, expenses, transfers, and owner draws - Duplicate transactions and doubled-up income - Undeposited Funds and Opening Balance Equity sitting on your balance sheet - Broken A/R and A/P aging - old invoices and bills that were never cleared - A chart of accounts that has grown into 300 unusable line items - Prior-year books that don't tie to the tax return MY PROCESS 1. Free diagnostic, within 48 hours - I review your file and send a written list of exactly what's wrong, how many months are affected, and a fixed quote. No surprises later. 2. Scope and plan - We agree what gets fixed, in what order, and by when, before I touch anything. A five-year cleanup is not a two-week job, and I will tell you that up front rather than after you've hired me. 3. Execution - Reconciliations, recategorization, and balance sheet corrections, with every material adjustment logged so you and your accountant can trace it. 4. Handover - Clean P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow, plus a short summary of what I changed and why, written for a business owner and not an auditor. 5. Keep it clean - Optional monthly bookkeeping so it never happens again. INDUSTRIES I WORK IN MOST Logistics and construction, eCommerce, property and real estate, and SaaS - US, UK, Canadian, and Australian businesses. AFTER THE CLEANUP Monthly bookkeeping and reconciliations, month-end close, A/P and A/R management, payroll processing, and management reports that explain what the numbers actually mean. US TAX RETURNS Registered with the IRS as a paid tax return preparer (PTIN holder). Once the books are clean, I prepare the federal return from them and sign it as your paid preparer: Schedule C, single-member LLC, partnership (1065) and S-corp (1120-S). The return is e-filed through my filing partner, so the books, the return and the filing stay in one place, and you are not paying someone else to rebuild the numbers. SOFTWARE QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Xero, Zoho Books, Wave, Odoo Dext, Hubdoc, BILL (AP automation), A2X, Link My Books, Taxomate Shopify, Amazon, eBay, Stripe, and PayPal integrations I also use AI-assisted categorization and automated document capture to cut cleanup time significantly - every adjustment is still reviewed by me before it touches your file. Send me a message with your software and roughly how far behind you are, and I'll come back within 48 hours with an honest assessment. If it's a small job, I'll say so.
