If two of these sound like you, your books are costing you money.
You find out how much you made only when you file taxes.
Your bank balance is the only report you ever check.
Receipts live in a shoebox, the truck, and three email inboxes.
Payroll takes a whole afternoon and you still worry about the 941.
QuickBooks says one thing and your bank says another.
A letter from the IRS or NM Taxation & Revenue arrived and you don't know where to start.
None of this is unusual. It's exactly what we fix.
