I am eighteen months behind. Is it too far gone?

No. The first 48 hours cover everything back to January 1, or the start of your fiscal year if it differs. Anything older is quoted in writing before it is touched, and you decide. Nobody is judged for the state of the file; it is the normal starting point.

Why is it so much cheaper than the national brands?

One person, no office, no sales team, no software to resell and no team to pay. The fee is set by the size of the business and the clean-up is included because a clean file is what makes the monthly work fast. Nothing is left out: every transaction coded, the bank reconciled every week, month end closed by the fifth business day with a note on what the numbers mean. If you want to check, the published national prices for a human bookkeeper on QuickBooks Online start at $250 a month.

There is a letter from the IRS I do not understand.

Send a photo of it in your first text. Liam shows you what it relates to in your file and what has been paid against it, and the cleanup puts the file in a state where your CPA can deal with the notice without reconstructing anything.

My partner does the books, not me.

Send them this page. Liam talks to whoever does the work, and the QuickBooks Online or Xero invite is two minutes for whoever owns the file.

Do we have to leave our CPA?

No. They keep tax and year end, and they get a clean file and a pack with nothing to reconstruct. Most CPAs are relieved.

Who actually does the work?

Liam Collier, the person in the video above. Not a team, not someone learning on your file, and not a queue. He takes on four new files a month so that stays true. Your data never leaves your QuickBooks Online or Xero file: he works through the user access you grant, which you can remove in one click.

Do you work with businesses in my area?

Yes. The service is fully remote on QuickBooks Online or Xero, so we work with small businesses anywhere in the United States. Texts are answered 9am to 9pm Eastern.

Bookkeeper for US small businesses. Fully remote, on QuickBooks Online or Xero.

If this is you

Bookkeeping services for small business

Most people who text Liam are in one of these spots.

Six, twelve, eighteen months behind on at least one file, and it gets harder to look at every month. Often because a bookkeeper or a CPA went quiet.
QuickBooks says one thing and the bank says another, and nobody can tell you why.
Loans, equipment financing or an owner loan that never made it into the file.
Personal spending through the business account that has to be found and separated.
A letter from the IRS you cannot explain, or a balance you do not recognize.
Two or three entities, and no one person looking across all of them.
Or you are starting out, or switching, and want it done properly from the first month.

None of that is unusual and none of it is a problem. It is the normal starting point, and it is exactly what the first 48 hours are for. If you are not sure which of these you are, text Liam the one line version and he will tell you.

What happens after you text

How the bookkeeping service works

Four steps, and the first three are inside the free month.

15 min

Liam replies, himself.

Within 15 minutes between 9am and 9pm Eastern, seven days. He asks a couple of quick questions about the business and where the books are at, then tells you how he can help. Nothing to prepare. If you would rather talk, he calls at a time you name.
Today

You invite him to QuickBooks Online or Xero.

Two minutes. In QuickBooks Online: Settings, Manage users, Accounting firms, liam@infraxus.com. In Xero: Settings, Users, Invite a user, liam@infraxus.com as an Administrator. He texts you the steps. If someone else owns the file, forward them the same text. Not on either yet? Liam sets you up at no cost.
48 hrs

The file is cleaned up back to January 1, and you get a short note on where you stand.

Every transaction coded, the bank reconciled, loans entered, personal spending separated, and a short note on where you stand and what needs a decision. Anything before January 1 is quoted in writing before it is touched. Nothing is charged this month.
Every week

Reconciled, coded, matched. Closed by the fifth business day, with a CFO note each month.

Receipts matched, who owes you and who you owe kept current, and at month end a short note that says what the numbers mean and what to do about them. You are never behind again.

Who does it

Your bookkeeper

Two minutes with the person who does the work.

How it works, what it costs, and the catch, from Liam himself.

Consultant, single-member LLC. QuickBooks had pulled in three months of bank feeds, so he thought his books were done. Not one line had been posted.

$1,670Less federal tax, from costs hiding on his personal cards
$10,072Of income a customer's 1099 would show and his books did not
10Hours from first access to a clean, reconciled file
81%Of his costs sitting on personal cards on arrival

The file. 51 bank lines waiting, no chart of accounts built for the business, $10,072 of income missing and 81% of his costs on personal cards. Inside 10 hours the ledger was rebuilt around how a consulting business spends, 327 card lines read one by one, and every account reconciled to the cent for July, August and September.

The money he was owed. His personal cards held 88 business charges worth $5,474: software, phone, filings and advertising, with 224 personal charges kept out. On his Schedule C that is about $1,670 less federal income and self-employment tax, and no state income tax on top. At $149 a month, that alone pays for the next 11 months.

The thing a bookkeeper would not have seen. His first month's invoice, $10,072, was paid into his personal account, so no bank feed ever showed it. A feed-only bookkeeper leaves it out, the customer's 1099-NEC reports it to the IRS anyway, and that mismatch is what a CP2000 letter is for. The first CFO note caught it, booked it, and reset his estimated tax on the real profit, before the IRS did it for him with penalties and interest attached. That note cost him nothing because his first month was free.

Every month since. Feeds reconciled every week, every personal card charge sorted, and a note on the fifth business day that says what the numbers mean and what to do about them. Closed by the fifth business day, or that month is free.

“Switching to Liam was honestly the biggest wake-up call. With the old guy, everything just went to general expenses because that was the closest he could find. Now I go into the account codes and I can see job materials, supplies, all of it. This is what I expected before and got nothing. Now we’re talking.”

Charlie LucaDirector, Luca Plumbing and Civil. Bookkeeping client. File cleaned up inside 48 hours of signing.

“When our previous CFO moved on, Liam stepped in and has been the person we go to for anything complex in our finances since. He is highly responsive and turns urgent work around at short notice.”

Levent ShevkiChief Executive Officer, Cornwalls. CFO client.

“Liam restructured the ledger so we could actually see delivery margins and where payroll was really going. Always delivered on time, no fuss.”

George Darwentthen Chief Executive Officer, Centauri Consulting. CFO client.

Liam takes on four new files a month, so every client gets the same person every week. Two places left in October.

Reconciled every week, every transaction coded, receipts matched.
Month end closed by the fifth business day, with a CFO note on what the numbers mean.
Your CPA gets a clean file, the 1099 information prepared and a year end pack, nothing to reconstruct.

Two or more entities?

One person across all of them, one note for each, and the minor entities are often free on their transaction volume. Text the number of entities and Liam quotes it the same day.

Two places left in October. Prices rise on November 1 as the diary fills; everyone who starts before then keeps today's price for life.

Pick a time. Liam calls you, himself. Nothing to prepare, no obligation.
