Remote Bookkeeping Services from Acworth, GA
Your books kept current, reconciled and readable every month, in QuickBooks Online or Xero, by a certified bookkeeper who has done this for more than twenty years. Nothing is handed back to you to finish.
What remote bookkeeping includes
Everything a set of books needs to be trusted by you, your tax preparer and a lender, done on a monthly rhythm.
Monthly bookkeeping
Every transaction categorized and every account reconciled to the bank and card statements, so the numbers you look at are the numbers that happened.
Catch-up and clean-up
Books that are months or years behind brought current, with a start, a finish and a price agreed before the work begins. Through December 1, 2026, catch-up work is 20% off.
Financial statements and management reporting
A profit and loss, balance sheet and cash report you can read, with the questions they raise answered rather than left in the footnotes.
Accounts payable and receivable
Bills scheduled and paid, invoices tracked and chased, so cash moves on purpose.
Nonprofit bookkeeping
Fund tracking and the reporting a board and a grantor expect, kept separate from the operating accounts.
Your platform, not ours
QuickBooks Online most often, Xero when that is what you run, with BILL, Square, Stripe, Clover and Gusto connected where they belong. Switching is only suggested when it is worth it for a business your size.
Who this is for
Owner-run businesses in Acworth, Kennesaw, Woodstock, Marietta and across Cobb County, and remote clients anywhere in the United States. The three situations that bring most people to this page:
- The books stopped being done. The business got busy, which is the good reason for it to happen. Catch-up is a defined piece of work, not a confession.
- Business and personal are mixed together. One card, one account, everything through it. Fixable, and it matters for a tax return and for a loan application.
- You cannot say what you made last quarter. Reporting that arrives every month, in time to act on it, is the whole point of the service.
How the first month goes
- The consultation. Thirty minutes, free, after you answer six questions about where your books stand. You hear what you need and what it costs.
- Access and set-up. Read-only bank feeds, your accounting file, and your point-of-sale or payroll apps connected. Nothing is rekeyed by hand that a connection can carry.
- Catch-up first, if needed. Older months are brought current before the monthly rhythm starts, so the first monthly report is not built on sand.
- Monthly close. Reconciliations done, reports delivered, questions answered. The same person every month.

Questions people ask before they book
Do we have to meet in person?
No. The work is remote. Being in Acworth means that if you would rather hand over a year of paperwork across a table than scan it, that option exists.
Do you prepare income tax returns?
No. Certified ProBooks keeps the books so that whoever files your return starts from clean, reconciled numbers, and can refer you to a preparer if you need one.
How far behind is too far behind?
There is no such thing. Books a year or more behind are routine catch-up work with a defined process and a finish line.
Which software do you work in?
QuickBooks Online and Xero. As a QuickBooks Business Affiliate, Certified ProBooks can pass along 30% off QuickBooks Online for your first six months.
What does it cost?
It depends on volume, how far behind the books are and what else is connected (payroll, sales tax). You get a price at the end of the free consultation, before any work starts.
