ThriveAndPaper Bookkeeping
Helping You Thrive, One Plan at a Time.
Opening January 2027. The practice is in its setup phase — we are finishing our practice closes and building an interest list. No client intake yet; if you'd like a spot held, get on the list.

Your books, caught up and kept up — for one flat monthly price.

ThriveAndPaper Bookkeeping is a small monthly bookkeeping practice for small businesses. We categorize your transactions, reconcile your accounts, and close your books every month, then send you financial statements and a short plain-language summary of what they say. No hourly meter. No surprise bills. No midnight bookkeeping sessions for you.

Everything is handled online and by email — no meetings to schedule during your workday.

What we do

Bookkeeping is the unglamorous work underneath every good business decision: knowing what came in, what went out, and what you actually made. Here is what a monthly engagement includes.

Monthly bookkeeping

  • Every bank and credit card transaction categorized in QuickBooks Online
  • All accounts reconciled to their statements, every month
  • A proper month-end close, run on a written checklist
  • Monthly financial statements: Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, and Statement of Cash Flows
  • A short summary in plain language — what changed, what looks off, what needs your attention

Catch-up & clean-up

  • Behind by a few months — or a year? That's most of our clients, and it's fixable
  • We bring every account current and reconcile back to the last clean point
  • Miscategorized transactions corrected
  • Anything that can't be resolved is listed in writing — flagged, never guessed at
  • Priced per month of backlog at your tier rate, 50% up front — quoted in writing before work begins

How it works

Four steps, all by email. You will never be asked for a password — that is a promise, and it's explained in step three.

1

A free intro call

We talk through your business, how far behind the books are, and whether we're a fit. If we aren't, we'll say so plainly.

2

An engagement letter, first

Scope, price, and responsibilities in writing, signed before any work begins. No letter, no work — including for friends, including for "just a quick cleanup."

3

Secure access — by invite only

You add us to your QuickBooks Online through its built-in accountant invite. We never receive, ask for, or store your password or bank login. Invite access is revocable in one click — you stay in control of your own books, which is exactly how it should be.

4

A monthly close, delivered

Each month closes on a checklist and lands in your inbox: statements plus a plain-language summary. Questions are answered by email within one business day.

Why a practice this small

"I'd rather over deliver than under deliver."
— Roger, owner

ThriveAndPaper Bookkeeping is run by its owner, Roger, and the roster stays small on purpose. A short client list means your close gets done carefully, your questions get answered by someone who knows your books, and nothing gets rushed to make room for the next signup.

Pricing is a flat monthly rate matched to your transaction volume. It doesn't tick upward by the hour, and if your volume outgrows your tier two months running, we'll talk about it with 30 days' notice — in writing, not on an invoice you weren't expecting.

We also know this work from the client's side of the desk: the practice's first books were our own — an online shop and a publishing business, with the same payout reports, platform fees, and ad spend that bury most small sellers at tax time.

What we don't do

Stated up front, because trust starts with clear lines. We do bookkeeping only:
