Hire a remote Bookkeeper

Mid–senior operators who own transactions → tidy books → usable reports, not data-entry theater.

• Daily transaction coding — Bank, cards, and invoices categorized correctly the first time.
• Bank & credit reconciliations — Cleared statements with no mystery balances.
• AP/AR basics & bill pay — Vendors paid, invoices logged, aging kept current.
• QuickBooks / Xero / Wave fluency — Clean charts of accounts and recurring workflows.
• Month-end support — Schedules and prep that make close faster for the accountant.
• Receipt & documentation hygiene — Evidence attached so audits and taxes don’t scramble.

How we vet before shortlist:

• Books / sample review — Real QBO/Xero files or recon packs, not screenshots alone.
• Bookkeeping exercise — Can they clean a messy month and explain the entries?
• References — Confirmed delivery with founders, accountants, or controllers.
• Volume under pressure — Clear prioritization when backlog and month-end collide.
• Founder-ready communication — What’s clean, what’s not, what needs a decision.
