Every engagement starts with a scoping call and a fixed quote. "Starting at" means simple books at that price — more entities, more volume, more work, higher quote. If your books need a one-time Catch-Up Cleanup first, that’s a separate fixed quote before the monthly starts. You’ll know your number before you commit.

How it works

Three steps. No mystery.

Scoping call

15 minutes. What you do, how far behind you are, what you need the books to do for you.

Fixed proposal

One number for the cleanup, one number for the monthly. In writing. No hourly billing, ever.

FAQ

Questions we get on every call

How does pricing work?

Flat monthly rates, quoted after a 15-minute scoping call. Right now Books Right starts at $159/mo (special pricing, normally $300) for a single entity with straightforward volume. More entities, more accounts, or higher transaction volume means a higher quote — but it’s fixed before you sign, and it doesn’t change mid-month. We never bill hourly.

How far behind is too far behind?

We’ve rebuilt books that were 4 years behind. Two to four years is normal for a first call. The only "too late" is waiting another year.

Will I need a cleanup before monthly service starts?

Sometimes. If your books are behind or messy, we’ll quote a one-time Catch-Up Cleanup to get them to the standard the monthly packages maintain. One fixed number, agreed before anything starts — then the monthly rhythm takes over.

Do I have to use QuickBooks Online?

No. We can work with what you have — or AlliedOne Marketing can build you a system with payment processing baked in. That said, we recommend QuickBooks Online for most businesses because your banker and your tax preparer both know how to read it. If we move you over, migration is part of the cleanup quote.

What happens at tax time?

The books are already reconciled, so the return gets built from numbers that hold up. We prepare business returns in-house for one flat quote, agreed before we start. Already have a tax preparer you like? We hand them a clean, reconciled file instead of a shoebox, and they never have to guess.

Am I locked into a long-term agreement?

No. Monthly engagements are month-to-month. Cleanups are a fixed-price project. If it’s not working, you keep your books and your QuickBooks file — they’re yours.
