WHY SHOULD I OUTSOURCE MY ACCOUNTANT RATHER THAN HIRE?
All businesses have slow and busy seasons, especially in the trade industries with the majority of the work being dependent upon the weather and seasons. More often than not the cost of a direct-hire accountant or bookkeeper will cost more monthly than and outsourced professional due to: 1) down time; employees still need to be paid regardless of workload, 2) hiring and training costs, 3) specialization; accountants and CPAs require ongoing training to be relevant and up to date on practices and regulations.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
Surprisingly less than you think; however, that will depend on how few or many services you need. For the average solopreneur or small business owner the cost to outsource your bookkeeping and accounting will save costs with the efficiency and experience provided. Also, you'll no longer lose precious time with turnover, training and hiring costs and most importantly your time growing your business if you're managing your books yourself.
