Before diving into pricing and services, it’s important to understand why bookkeeping clean-up is essential. Outdated or incomplete books can create significant challenges for a business, including:
- Tax Penalties: Missed tax deadlines or incorrect filings can result in fines and penalties from tax authorities.
- Inaccurate Financial Reporting: Without accurate records, it’s difficult to make informed business decisions or secure financing.
- Cash Flow Issues: Mismanaged accounts can lead to cash flow problems, affecting daily operations.
- Business Growth Obstacles: Without a clear financial picture, growth opportunities may be missed, or the business could struggle to scale.
That’s why it’s critical to keep your financial records clean, up-to-date, and accurate.
RBO’s Approach to Initial Clean-Up
Tailored Pricing Based on Your Business’s Unique Needs
At RBO, we recognize that every business is different, which is why our clean-up services are priced based on the number of transactions, the number of bank accounts, and the overall size of the business. Instead of an unpredictable hourly rate, we use a flat-fee model for transparency and simplicity. This way, you can rest assured that you won’t be hit with surprise charges during the clean-up process.
Our team of certified bookkeepers begins with an in-depth assessment of your books, identifying missing or incorrect entries, unreconciled transactions, and any other disorganization. Based on this assessment, we provide a clear estimate for bringing your financial records up to date. Whether you’ve fallen behind for a few months or more than a year, we’ll outline the steps and deliver a timeline that suits your needs.
Here’s how RBO tailors its initial clean-up service:
- Small Businesses: For startups or small businesses with fewer accounts and transactions, our pricing is designed to be budget-friendly, ensuring that even the smallest businesses can access quality bookkeeping services.
- Growing Businesses: For businesses with multiple bank accounts and higher transaction volumes, we offer comprehensive solutions to reconcile all accounts and ensure nothing is missed.
Case Study: RBO Brings a Retail Business Back on Track
The Problem:
A retail business had fallen behind on bookkeeping for more than a year, leaving the owner without a clear understanding of their cash flow, profits, or tax liabilities. They had multiple accounts and hundreds of transactions that had not been reconciled.
RBO’s Solution:
The RBO team quickly got to work by performing a detailed assessment of the business’s financial state. We identified gaps in transaction recording, missing receipts, and discrepancies in income reporting. Based on our flat-fee model, the clean-up was priced depending on the number of transactions and accounts, providing the business owner with a clear upfront estimate.
The Result:
Within four weeks, RBO completed the clean-up, reconciling all accounts and bringing the books up to date. The business owner was not only relieved but also better equipped to make informed decisions about expansion. The clean-up also helped them prepare for the upcoming tax season with confidence, avoiding penalties and inaccuracies.
After seeing the benefits of a clean financial record, the business opted to continue with RBO’s ongoing maintenance plan to ensure their books stayed accurate and organized.
