Question 1

What does it cost?

Accepted Answer

$179/month for most landscaping companies. Your first month is free. If you're larger or more complex than that, we quote you a flat monthly number based on what's actually in the books.

Question 2

Is the first month really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We do a full month of your books — categorized, reconciled, documented, with reports — at no charge. You see the work before you pay for any of it.

Question 3

What's included every month?

Accepted Answer

We categorize every transaction, reconcile your bank and card accounts, attach the documentation behind your expenses, and send you a profit & loss monthly and balance sheet quarterly. You also get a dedicated bookkeeper assigned to your account.

Question 4

Why do you only work with landscapers?

Accepted Answer

Because one industry means your bookkeeper already knows the work — fuel and materials, subs, equipment on payments, a brutal spring and a dead January. They know what a normal month looks like for you, so they catch what's off.

Question 5

How does bookkeeping actually lower my tax bill?

Accepted Answer

Most CPAs won't claim an expense that can't be backed up — that's them protecting you. Clean books with documentation attached mean your CPA can claim everything you're owed instead of only what they're comfortable with.

Question 6

Are your bookkeepers US-based?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every bookkeeper is US-based and works in your time zone, so you're not waiting overnight for an answer.

Question 7

Who do I actually talk to?

Accepted Answer

One bookkeeper, the same person every month, assigned to your account. No portal, no ticket queue, no call center. We respond within one business day on bookkeeping questions.

Question 8

What counts as a transaction?

Accepted Answer

Every line that hits your bank or card accounts — fuel stops, material runs, customer payments, equipment payments, payroll draws. We quote custom for larger volume operations.

Question 9

Am I locked into a contract?

Accepted Answer

No. Month to month — cancel anytime, no penalty.

Question 10

Do I have to be caught up before starting?

Accepted Answer

No. If you're behind, we quote a one-time catch-up based on how far behind you are and what's in there, then roll straight into monthly.

Question 11

What if I'm way behind — like two years?

Accepted Answer

Still fixable. Tell us how far back it goes and we'll give you one flat catch-up price upfront, plus a timeline.

Question 12

What reports do I get?

Accepted Answer

A profit & loss each month and a balance sheet quarterly, in plain English. Need something else for a lender or a bonding company? Just ask.

Question 13

Do you file my taxes?

Accepted Answer

No. We keep your books clean and documented — your CPA still does your return. We just make their job easier and your deductions defensible.

Question 14

Can you work with my CPA?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and most owners want us to. We hand them clean books and the documentation to go with them.

Question 15

What software do you work in?

Accepted Answer

Whatever you're already using, in most cases. If you're not on anything yet, we'll get you set up on something simple.

Question 16

Do you handle payroll?

Accepted Answer

We record and categorize it. Running payroll itself we'll talk through on the call — depends on your crew size and what you're already using.

Question 17

How do I pay?

Accepted Answer

Through Stripe, monthly, starting after your free first month.
