Where Monthly Bookkeeping Fits in Your Bookkeeping Journey
Monthly Bookkeeping is the ongoing service businesses use after they are caught up.
Most follow this path:
- Cleanup or catch-up first (if behind)
- Begin monthly bookkeeping
- Add accounting or CPA oversight
- Outsource more functions as they scale
If you still have backlog, start with QuickBooks Cleanup or Catch-Up Bookkeeping.
Once you’re current, monthly bookkeeping keeps you organized, and you can upgrade into Accounting Services or Outsourced Bookkeeping.
