Why Us

One Sheet Version 2 Always Bookkeeping

Why You Should Hire a Bookkeeper

 You may be asking yourself why you should hire a bookkeeper.  Well, between travelling, keeping your business going forward, putting out daily fires and staying balanced, something is most likely going to get left out along the way.  Often, that ends up being bills that need to get paid.  You don’t want your credit impacted by late or forgotten payments.  With Always Bookkeeping in charge we will give you the confidence that everything has been handled on time and we will help you make business decisions in a timely manner so that your business can grow!

 

Fixed Monthly Fees

At Always Bookkeeping, we believe that our clients should be able to come to us in time of need without the worry of higher fees. In fact, we want you to come to us for guidance when it comes to understanding your financial statements and other business needs. We find that charging hourly is counterproductive and adds another layer of barrier in communication between our bookkeeping professionals and entrepreneurs. Also, the more information you provide us, the less likely that there will be errors resulting from miscommunication. The longer our clients stay in business, the longer we stay in business.

On our end, we developed our systems to ensure efficiency and keep our costs low. Our combined experience in a public accounting firm also provides the skills that enable us to make effective decisions more efficiently. We charge our clients on the first day of every month, so you don’t have to worry about hidden charges and surprise bills. At Always Bookkeeping, you can set it and forget it!

 

Top Notch Advice 

At Always Bookkeeping, we are always up to date and always ready to make business decisions.  We are always learning and continue to prepare ourselves for whatever business decisions a small business owner may have.  At Always Bookkeeping, we are professionals who have access to the top 5 star Google reviewed accounting firm in Canada and we are one of the top rated bookkeeping firms in Edmonton.

 

Teamwork

At Always Bookkeeping we are a team that works together!  Although you may believe you have a good idea about the state of your business, it always helps to have another set of eyes on this.  At Always Bookkeeping, we will put your financials in order and run reports showing you how your business is doing each month, where the funds are going each month, and how your efforts are paying off (or might need to be improved upon).  Our team of professionals are familiar with each of our clients which allows continuity in your business and lessens the chance of a break in service if one of our team is unavailable.  At Always Bookkeeping we are always ready to give you a new perspective!

 

Automated Technology 

Manual data entry is more prone to human error. As such, we have picked and familiarized ourselves with the sophisticated software to ensure that your data is as up to date and as accurate as possible.

At Always Bookkeeping, we use Intuit’s QuickBooks Online to ensure you can access your reports anywhere you want. In addition, QuickBooks can now connect directly to your bank and credit card accounts which allow us to enter the transactions as soon as they hit the bank. We also use Hubdoc to store digital receipts online and download the bank statements directly from your financial institutions. Our reliance on our clients to provide data is significantly decreased. Our clients can now dedicate their precious time to growing their businesses and avoid mundane recordkeeping tasks. The best part is you don’t have to pay for this top-notch software – the cost is included in our low monthly fee!

At Always bookkeeping, we are also familiar with payroll and even industry-specific software. We are trained to use software that helps our client with project management and digital timesheets with GPS tracking.

 

Scheduled Biweekly Communication

 Don’t be left wondering about the status of your reports due to your bookkeeper disappearing after the contract has been signed! At Always Bookkeeping, we make sure to give you biweekly updates on your financial reports and answer your questions regularly. You get a set of interim financial statements every two weeks. Biweekly reports and reconciliations help our clients monitor their cash flow and ensure that funds are available for payroll and bill payments. If you need help with your payroll, we will provide you with employee paystubs and even guide you on your payroll remittances every two weeks. We are also able to prepare and file employee T4s for you at the end of each year.  Keep your suppliers happy and maintain good relationships with your employees by having control of your cash flow through the help of our professionals at Always Bookkeeping.

 

Quarterly In-person Group Business Coaching Session 

Our vision at Always Bookkeeping is to help 1,000 Canadian business for at least 5 years.  Our commitment to our clients’ success does not end at bookkeeping. We provide business coaching sessions to help our small business owners learn helpful tools that can be implemented for their own benefit. Whether it is reading the financial statements or even getting to the first page of Google, Always Bookkeeping will provide proven strategies that will help business owners grow from being a skills expert to a fully rounded entrepreneur. 

 

Convenience

 At Always Bookkeeping, you will see that we operate at one of the most technologically advance accounting offices in Edmonton – or maybe even Canada! This exposes us to several resources that not only help our business owners but also makes it possible to handle most of our work remotely. Want to meet but cannot physically leave the jobsite? Just open your laptop and we will present the data to you online. You don’t have to be super tech savvy to use our accounting software. We can walk you through the process of getting the information you need without physically being at our office. We can be your cloud-based bookkeepers.
