Your Katy-Fulshear Bookkeeping Service Solution

Hand Over Your Bookkeeping Chores to Us

As a small business owner, you have a lot to deal with running your business. Accurate record-keeping is essential to every successful business, but it can also be complicated and time-consuming.

We can help you with the organization and day-to-day tasks of bookkeeping so that you can focus on your core business.

General and Online Bookkeeping Services

You’ll find that many bookkeepers now refer to their work as “client bookkeeping services.” Why? It’s because they are responsible for keeping track of all financial records for their clients.

Previously, this form of work was known as “write-up work” when spoken about among CPAs since they had to physically write and compile the numbers for a trial balance.

Further from this, the term “outsourced bookkeeping services” means that you are entrusting your company books to a different organization.

You may have also heard of “virtual bookkeeping services” or “cloud bookkeeping” and these terms are used for online bookkeeping services that are professional as opposed to you running accounting software yourself.

Regardless of how you refer to us, the information found in your books is essential for the successful and smooth running of your company.

You have to ensure that all of the data within it is accurate and processed quickly so that you remain on time for your yearly taxes. This is why tax filing services are a common addition to most accounting companies.

Bookkeeping professionals call this area of service SALT, which stands for State and Local Taxes. This area is changing rapidly due to a 2018 court case (South Dakota vs. Wayfair, Inc.) which opened the floodgates for interstate tax collection on online sales regardless of whether you’ve stepped foot in the state or not. States are hungrily looking for more revenue, and this is driving rapid change in state’s requirements for collection as well as expanding what’s taxable.
