Ongoing bookkeeping is charged at a customized, flat monthly fee that can be adjusted based on your needs and budget, starting at $350/month + GST. There are many ways we can work together, depending on the scope, stage, and nature of your business. Take a look at our service packages. If monthly bookkeeping is not a fit for your business at this time, consider booking an advisory session or hiring us for custom set-up and training on how to do your own books using Quickbooks Online!


Why we do it

We believe in building long-term, caring, and respectful relationships with our clients.

We will work great together if you are:

  • An entrepreneur, artist, socially-conscious, or values-driven small business owner who is conscientious about the impact you have in the world.
  • A creative entrepreneur with a growing business who is ready for professional support with your financial systems.
  • A non-profit, charity, or other organization that is looking for a values-driven bookkeeping company that works outside the corporate model.
  • A radical change-maker who wants a bookkeeper that understands your lifestyle, motivations, and community and who strives to work in service of marginalized communities and in opposition to traditional capitalist models of success and hierarchy
  • An artist/creative who feels embarrassed around traditional financial professionals and you’re looking for someone who can relate to you.
  • A Queer/Trans/LQBTQIA2+/Gender non-confirming person who wants a bookkeeper that celebrates your whole identity

How we will support you:

  • Expertise and lived experience in envisioning, starting, executing and growing your own projects from scratch
  • A deep and ongoing commitment to our own education and constant self-improvement to better serve you
  • Strategic thinking, enabling you to realize the larger vision of your work
  • A relaxed attitude paired with rigorous attention to detail, compliance, and excellence
  • A holistic approach to business and finances
  • Patience, education, commitment and trust from a team who has your best interests at heart

Does this sound like a good fit?
