About This Service

Catch-up bookkeeping for small businesses (remote & Montana-based)

Signs You’re Behind on Your Books

A few of the most common signs:

Our Approach

What our cleanup & catch-up process looks like

1. Review & Assess

We evaluate how far behind you are, what accounts are involved, and what needs fixing.

2. Organize & Reconcile

Every transaction is matched to your statements, gaps are filled, and all accounts are reconciled.

3. Correct & Standardize

Miscategorized transactions are fixed, duplicates resolved, and consistent categorization applied throughout.

4. Deliver Clean Financials

You receive accurate financial statements — P&L, balance sheet, and supporting reports — ready for your CPA or your own planning.
