What we do

Bookkeeping, reporting, and the help in between

Everything a small business needs to run on real numbers — without building an in-house back office.

Working With Your CPA

  • Tax-ready year-end packages
  • CPA coordination
  • Adjusting entries

What you can expect

  • Books closed on a schedule. A formal close cadence, not "whenever we get to it."
  • Every account reconciled. Balance sheet accounts come with supporting schedules.
  • Reports you'll actually read. Custom reporting packages built around your decisions.
  • A real conversation each month. Statement review calls so the numbers stay in your head.
Why Agreed

Real books for businesses that have outgrown DIY.

A lot of small businesses run on cash-basis QuickBooks files held together with category guesses and good intentions. That works — until it doesn't. Until the bank wants a real balance sheet, or a deal hinges on knowing what last quarter actually looked like, or tax season turns into tax archaeology.

Agreed Financial Services brings controller-level bookkeeping to small businesses: accrual-basis financials, a formalized month-end close, reconciled balance-sheet schedules, custom reporting, and a monthly call to talk through what the numbers mean. The result is books you can stand behind — and decisions you can make from them.

  • Trustworthy. Clean books, clearly explained, with nothing hidden.
  • Calm. A formal close cadence replaces month-end panic.
  • Precise. Accrual-basis, reconciled, schedule-backed.
  • Confident. Numbers you can use to run the business.
Common questions

Frequently asked

If you don't see your question, send it over — we're happy to walk through it on a call.

Do you prepare and file taxes?
No — we don't prepare or file business or personal tax returns. We work alongside your CPA, delivering tax-ready year-end financials and any adjusting entries they need. If you don't have a CPA, we can make introductions.
What software do you work in?
We work primarily in QuickBooks Online. If you're not on QBO yet, our QBO implementations service handles the migration; if you are, we'll meet your file where it is.
What's the difference between what you do and cash-basis bookkeeping?
A cash-basis bookkeeper records transactions when money moves. We deliver accrual-basis financials with a formal month-end close: revenue recognized when earned, expenses when incurred, every balance-sheet account reconciled to a supporting schedule. That's the difference between a transaction log and a financial statement.
My books are a mess. Can you help?
Yes — clean-up is a core service. We take messy QBO files, uncategorized transactions, broken reconciliations, and prior-period drift and bring them back to a clean, accrual-basis, reconciled state before transitioning into ongoing monthly work.
How do monthly review calls work?
After each month-end close, we send your reporting package and schedule a call to walk through it together. We surface what's changed, where the variances are, and what to do about them — so the numbers actually shape your next decisions.
How is your pricing structured?
Most engagements are priced as a flat monthly fee based on the complexity of your books, transaction volume, and which services you need. We'll scope it on an intro call and put pricing in writing before any work starts — no surprises.
Do you offer one-time projects, or only ongoing work?
Both. Clean-up engagements, QBO implementations, and reporting-package builds are often standalone projects. Ongoing monthly bookkeeping, close, and review calls are recurring.
How long does a clean-up typically take?
It depends on how many months are behind, the size of the file, and the condition it's in. After an initial diagnostic we provide a fixed scope and timeline — most clean-ups land somewhere between a few weeks and a couple of months.
