A bookkeeper keeps your business's financial records accurate, organized, and up to date. This typically includes recording and categorizing transactions, reconciling bank and credit card accounts, managing accounts payable and receivable, maintaining QuickBooks Online, and preparing accurate financial reports.

At Profit & Flow LLC, bookkeeping goes beyond simply entering transactions. We help business owners understand their financial information so they can make informed decisions about cash flow, expenses, profitability, and growth.

If you're spending too much time managing your books, falling behind on reconciliations, unsure whether your financial reports are accurate, or relying on your CPA to clean up your books at tax time, it may be time to hire a professional bookkeeper.

A bookkeeper can give you reliable financial information throughout the year while allowing you to focus on running your business.

Profit & Flow works with small businesses and independent business owners who want accurate books without having to manage the accounting themselves.

A bookkeeper primarily focuses on maintaining accurate financial records and completing routine accounting activities. A fractional Controller provides a higher level of financial oversight and helps a business understand and use its financial information.

Fractional Controller services may include financial reporting, cash flow forecasting, budgeting, profitability analysis, KPI development, internal controls, and financial process improvement.

Profit & Flow LLC provides both bookkeeping and fractional Controller services, allowing businesses to scale their accounting support as their needs grow.

A fractional Controller is an experienced accounting professional who provides Controller-level financial management to a business on a part-time or outsourced basis rather than as a full-time employee.

A fractional Controller can help with month-end close, financial reporting, cash flow forecasting, budgeting, profitability analysis, internal controls, accounting processes, and financial decision support.

For growing businesses that need more than basic bookkeeping but aren't ready to hire a full-time Controller, fractional Controller services can provide experienced financial leadership in a flexible and cost-effective way.

Yes. Profit & Flow LLC provides QuickBooks Online cleanup and catch-up bookkeeping services for businesses with disorganized, incomplete, or outdated accounting records.

A cleanup may include reviewing transactions, reconciling bank and credit card accounts, correcting categorization issues, reviewing balance sheet accounts, organizing the chart of accounts, and bringing your books up to date.

The goal is to establish accurate financial records that you and your tax professional can rely on.

Bank and credit card accounts should generally be reconciled at least monthly. Regular reconciliations help identify errors, duplicate transactions, missing transactions, incorrect categorizations, and other discrepancies before they become larger problems.

Monthly reconciliation also helps ensure that your financial statements accurately reflect your business's financial position.

For businesses with higher transaction volume or more complex accounting needs, more frequent review may be appropriate.

Law firms should always follow applicable Michigan Bar rules and consult appropriate legal or compliance professionals regarding their trust-account responsibilities.
