HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST?
Straightforward Pricing. Built Around Your Business.
You deserve a general idea of cost before you spend time on a call. Monthly bookkeeping for smaller, straightforward businesses can start around $300 per month. Your final price depends on the amount and complexity of the work.

Monthly Bookkeeping Starting Around $300
I don't believe in hiding the price and making you schedule a sales call just to find out whether we're even in the same range.
For a smaller business with straightforward bookkeeping needs, ongoing service can begin around $300 per month. Some businesses will be higher because they have more transactions, more accounts, more complexity, or require more ongoing attention.
Before you decide anything, I'll explain exactly what I recommend, what I'll handle, and what it will cost.
ONGOING BOOKKEEPING
Starting around
Final pricing is based on your actual bookkeeping needs.
Start With a ConversationWHAT AFFECTS THE PRICE?
Every Business Is a Little Different.
Transaction Volume
The amount of monthly bank and credit-card activity affects the time required to keep your books current.
Accounts & Complexity
Multiple bank accounts, credit cards, loans, payment processors, and more complicated activity can require additional work.
Condition of the Books
If the books are behind, inconsistent, or need cleanup before ongoing service begins, we'll address that separately.
CATCH-UP & CLEANUP
If Your Books Are Behind, Don't Fix Them Before You Call Me.
I'll review what you have, explain what I see, and give you a clear price for cleanup or catch-up work before anything begins.
You do not need to be embarrassed about messy books. Business owners get busy. My job is to help create a clean path forward.
Cleanup work is quoted separately.
The price depends on how far behind the books are, the number of accounts involved, and what needs to be corrected or reconciled.
FAIR TO BOTH OF US
I Want the Price to Match the Work.
I don't want to overcharge a small business because it happens to fit inside a package. And I don't want to guess at a price before I understand what your business actually needs.
We'll have a conversation first. If it looks like I can help, I'll review enough information to understand the work and give you a straightforward quote. Then you decide whether Island Bookkeeping feels like the right fit.
