Hello,
I’m Karen

I Keep The Books So You Don’t Have To

 I know you’re already OVER IT…

when it comes to bookkeeping. You want to use your time and talents to serve your clients instead of digging in your car for receipts, making a formula work in Excel, or inputting a month’s worth of data into Quickbooks.

I have good news for you! I’m crazy about bookkeeping so you don’t have to be. Better yet, our interactions will be fun, refreshing, and encouraging!

My approach to my business and my clients is this: NO DRAMA ALLOWED! I get it. We’re all different! Let me use my zany love for bookkeeping to keep YOU from stressing out about it.

This doesn’t mean I take what I do lightly. I’m a fun human, but rock solid when it comes to my work. My relationships with business owners like you are focused on caring about the books, and caring about you as a person.

Trade the frenzy of accounts receivable, payable, and payroll for peace of mind.

Wouldn’t you love it if…

✔️ Customers were invoiced and reminded to pay automatically

✔️ Employees were paid accurately and all employment taxes were remitted on-time

Say goodbye to never ending spreadsheets. Your income and expense transactions will be coded and accepted regularly so you’re ultra-prepared when it’s time to:

✔️ File your taxes (it’s less painful when you’re prepared)

✔️ Apply for loans – lenders like accuracy 😉

✔️ Make business decisions like “Should we get new computers, or take a team cruise?”

Karen Keeps You Informed

I know, charts can be gross to look at. But with Quickbooks, you can pick and choose what you want to see, and I’ll hide the ugly info you don’t care about!

Keep on top of the essentials like…

✔️ Profit and Loss Statements – show me the money, baby!

✔️ Balance Sheets – it’s even, Steven!

✔️ Accounts Receivable Aging – like the finest wine

✔️ Accounts Payable Aging – did someone say more wine?

✔️ Budgeting and Cash Flow Analysis – keep the money coming!

Karen Keeps You Accurate

How do you spell accuracy? K-A-R-E-N! Accurate reconciliations are of UTMOST importance when it comes to your Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet statements.

Save yourself from nightmares with:

✔️ Monthly Bank Account reconciliation

✔️ Credit Card reconciliation

✔️ Zero bookkeeping errors

✔️ No duplicate transactions

Accurate reconciliations are one of the MOST underestimated parts of bookkeeping and one of the MOST important for your profits!

Testimonials

Karen is hands-down the most intuitive, skilled and reliable bookkeeper I’ve ever worked with. She pulled together an emergency tax project for me and I was then lucky enough to add her firm as a permanent asset for my personal and business team. Karen is currently architecting a new plan for our bookkeeping, working seamlessly with my CPA, involved in tax planning and ongoing bookkeeping as well. She’s trusted, delivers every time – on time – and I highly recommend her.

"Who knew that bookkeeping could be fun?'

Karen knows her stuff and made setting up my accounts so easy.  She promised it would be fun and it really was.  Thanks so much Karen, you’re amazing!

'Whether you are a bigger business, just getting started, or somewhere in between, Karen is your girl!'

After over 10 years in business, I now realize what a big piece of the puzzle I was missing.  As my business grew, and me still being the receptionist, the scheduler, the provider, the biller, etc., having Karen organize my business and set it up on autopilot has given me more time to focus on other things and a sense of relief and peace that I don’t have to plug in numbers myself like I’m in the stone age.  I thought I’d be overwhelmed…But it’s now all done automatically and Karen made it so easy and seamless. Thank you Karen!!
– Sara Vargas Alvarado

You know about me…

tell me about YOU!

If you haven’t noticed, I’m a pretty open book. I’d love to get to know you on a personal level – because if we’re being honest, our business isn’t just for the sake of work. We have big dreams, goals, and plans for ourselves, our families, and therefore our businesses. I promise I’m not nosey! But hearing who you are is just as valuable to me as what you do.
