Payroll Services Done Right

The IRS is quite serious about the laws related to payroll taxes. Also, the penalties and fines levied against those who do not comply are rather stiff.

If you are the owner of a small business, and you process your own payroll, or if you hire a worker to dedicate his or her time to processing payroll, it is likely that you are wasting at least 12 days every year that could be better spent trying to generate new business.

Our payroll services are affordable and cost-effective. This gives you extra time that is required to run your business and focus on making improvements to your services and products.

We stay up to date with the changes in federal and state tax laws so you do not have to.

Also, because we have an understanding that the requirements of every business can vary, we offer you three distinct levels of payroll services.

QuickBooks Services Made Easy

The famous QuickBooks software for financial management was developed with people like you – small to medium-sized business owners – in mind.

You may not think that the software can help you, but if you are looking for an edge in your business, you may want to reconsider your opinion.

You can see and experience benefits from using QuickBooks Services and software in these ways:

Savings of Time – with the QuickBooks software, a number of common tasks are automated so they are dealt with in an automatic fashion.

Generate Reports and Customize Them With the Greatest of Ease – This allows you to check the status of your business at any given moment in time.

Affordable Pricing – Regardless of whether your income is great or small, the QuickBooks software handles your receipts, payables and other data with terrific accuracy and ease at a very reasonable price.

Additionally, the software evolves and grows as your business expands.

You can use it to create a business plan appropriate for a starter loan or a line of necessary credit, or you can employ the software to help you manage your plans for possible expansion in the future.

Customized Easily – QuickBooks is highly flexible and simple to set up initially so that it will work in the manner you expect and require. It can adapt to a supremely wide range of business types, and it is now possible to obtain customized accounting packages which are designed for specific business models.

These packages include accounting templates for non profit organizations, contractors, retailers and healthcare organizations.

A Proven Product With Stability – QuickBooks has been used by professionals and others for a number of years, and its wide base of customers is a strong testament to the product’s reliable nature.

Data is Easy to Share – With the QuickBooks software, you can share data with hundreds of other applications for business reliably and easily. These other applications include popular titles like Microsoft Outlook, Excel, Access and Word.

Manage Your Invoices and Payments Online – When you use the QuickBooks accounting software, business transactions can occur much more quickly. This is because it allows you to email your statements and invoices on the internet. Also, you can accept payments from customers via bank account transfers or credit cards.

This allows you to effectively avoid the all too common check-is-in-the-mail syndrome which may be dragging your business down financially.

Merchant Account Service – This is a special perk of the QuickBooks software that gives you the ability to accept payments via credit cards with tremendous ease. Because it is integrated directly into the software, you can avoid ever having to enter credit card information or payment data multiple times.

For this feature, there is absolutely no additional software or hardware required.

Banking Online is Made Easy – Once you have set up your existing bank account in the QuickBooks software, getting your bills paid is much easier than ever before. All you have to do is simply fill out the checks in the QuickBooks software, and make one easy click of a button, then your chosen financial institution completes the remainder of the work for you.

Through this, you can save the expensive costs often associated with sending out checks – no more paper, envelopes, or prohibitively expensive stamps or postage!

Accounting Done For You And Made Easy

As a small business owner, you have a limited amount of time to accomplish all the things that need to be done.  With that being the case, why in the world would you squander this precious time doing bookkeeping, accounting and other finance related tasks?

The most efficient use of your time should be focused on customer service, marketing and improving your processes.  These are the specialties of your business and the areas that can help you to grow and become more profitable.

All successful small businesses know that time equals money, and the more time spent on the business, the more profits that are generated.  This is only true of profit generating activities though, and bookkeeping and accounting do not generate profits.

Rather than spend your time on profitless and boring activities, let the professionals handle the accounting while you skyrocket your sales!

Our professional accountants can go over your ledgers and books on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on your needs and the size and scope of your business, to take care of all the following tasks:

Basic Bank Account Reconciliation: We will review all your bank statements to find lost payments, checks and deposits and can also identify unauthorized wire transfers that could be draining your accounts.

Our services help to identify and stop any potential embezzlement of funds from your business.  We protect you from bank errors, fraud and other financially related crimes that can cripple your business.

Finally, we help you to manage your cash resources effectively while tracking your business growth and recommending ways to increase that growth.

Income and Expense Statements:  We will create regular P&L statements that provide you with an easy to see snapshot of the costs associated with running your business.

Our service will help to identify areas of your business on which you are over spending as well as those that are growing rapidly and could benefit from additional budget.  We will show you the current trends in your product sales and returns to help maximize your inventory usage.

Finally, we can put all of these together to give you a current and ongoing picture of your tax liability.

Balance Sheets:  Combined with P&L statements the balance sheet is the most important report used by investors and lenders to determine the viability of lending to your business or investing capital in your projects.

An updated balance sheet will let you know about the health of your business at any given point in time, allowing you to correct imbalances before they get out of hand.

Through analyzing the balance sheet you can identify trends in your payables and receivables, thus allowing you to take a proactive stance towards maximizing the positive trends and minimizing the negative trends.
Ledger Management:  If you don’t already have a complete and accurate general ledger system we will set one up for you to ensure that you are keeping accurate records for your business.  If you already have a general ledger set up, we can review it to ensure it is complete and does not contain any discrepancies or errors.

We will provide your business with unlimited consultations so you know that every piece of your business accounting puzzle is being taken care of in an effective and efficient manner.

If you require additional services, we can customize our accounting services by offering you the following:

• Payroll management services
• Tax planning and preparation services
• Any other financial services you might require to ensure your business runs well and maximizes your profits
