If this is what your money looks like now…
…this is what it looks like with AccountNet!
Simplify your books and grow your business with our expert QuickBooks accounting training and support…accurate, reliable and stress free!
AccountNet! provides QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online accounting services to small business owners in Nashville and surrounding areas that streamline their financial reporting processes, improve accuracy, and provide valuable insights that drive better decision-making in your business. We develop and deliver a financial accounting system custom tailored to your business that is maintained on-site at your office as we work closely with you, and your office personnel, to make sure you understand every aspect of your financial reporting process.
AccountNet! will work with you to help you gain a better understanding of your company’s financial results along with a thorough understanding of your financial position and condition.
Ideally, you will experience less day-to-day stress while running your business, plus enhanced cash flow management through a financial reporting process that ensures your books stay up to date.
With AccountNet!, you will enjoy daily financial reporting instead of financial statements that are often 2 or 3 months old when you finally get them back from your current provider. You will finally look at your financial statements, your Balance Sheet and P&L, with a clearer understanding and can be assured they are always up to date.
Together, the goal is to learn as much from you about your business as you are going to learn from us about financial reporting and QuickBooks.
You will finally understand where your numbers are actually coming from once you go through our proven setup and training process for getting your books in order now, and then maintained daily thereafter.
Whether you are a brand new business,
(Congratulations!)
or have been in business for years,
(Congratulations!)
AccountNet! will custom tailor a QuickBooks financial reporting system unique to your business environment.
At AccountNet!…We do, what we do best, so you can do, what you do best … more!”
Please Note: Our client base consists of small businesses with the following legal structures: Sole Proprietorships, Partnerships, Limited Liability Corps, S Corps and C Corps. Our services are limited to financial statement preparation compiled from client data and information in the client’s office on the client’s computers. We do not provide reviewed or audited financial statements.
Our Time-Tested Process Since 1990
Once our Standard Service Agreement has been signed, training will begin by setting up two appointments per week, for 4 four weeks, for a total of eight appointments. Each appointment should last approximately two hours.
All new AccountNet! clients will receive a complimentary copy of our exclusive training guide entitled “The ABC’s of 123’s” in e-Book format.
This e-Book tutorial will be reviewed individually with all client personnel involved with your internal financial bookkeeping and reporting process, and it is intended to give everyone a much better understanding of accounting basics and fundamentals.
Next, as we learn all about your business, and show you how to properly input your daily financial information and data into QuickBooks, we are very careful not to tell you how to run your business. You are the expert there! We are simply focused on custom tailoring QuickBooks to your business.
After the initial 4-week setup and training process, and for the next 3 months, an AccountNet! representative will meet with you monthly to make sure your QuickBooks system is working the way it was originally intended to work.
It’s important to understand that each small business not only has a daily rhythm. That is what the setup and training process is designed to capture.
But it also has a monthly cycle, such as bank reconciliations, inventory valuations, sales tax reporting, credit card reconciliations and other monthly demands unique to each individual business.
This monthly cycle is why it’s important to meet with all new clients for approximately three months after the initial setup and training phase of our program.
After the 3 monthly meetings, the goal is to meet with each AccountNet! client once per quarter thereafter.
Quarterly meetings usually take two to three hours to complete.
Over the years we have found, there will always be something new that comes up each quarter (after the initial setup and training and monthly follow up steps) that probably has never been addressed before.
Business by nature is dynamic, always changing, and thereafter there will always be new accounting challenges and issues.
For example:
Equipment and vehicle sales, purchases, and trade-ins.
Also, perhaps, new lines of credits and/or long-term loans.
New product and service offerings.
The list of new accounting issues can be long and varied, always unique to your business environment.
So, we are always there to help you through those events unique to your business.
Finally, once per year, in January, when we meet with our clients for 12/31 quarter end & year end services, your books will be ready for tax return preparation. There is no waiting until March 15th or April 15th to prepare your tax returns. In January, you will be ready to file your business tax return.
Services
Setup & Training: Eight Setup & Training appointments will be scheduled over an initial four-week period with each appointment expected to last approximately two hours. We will custom design your bookkeeping system using QuickBooks software and train your designated client representative(s) in the methods and proper use of QuickBooks. There is no extra charge for training multiple personnel.
Monthly Financial Reporting: Monthly Financial Reporting appointments will be scheduled over a three-month period following Setup & Training to assure all important, applicable issues have been properly addressed and that the daily reporting system, as designed, is functioning properly. Any new issues are addressed and resolved, plus monthly financial reports are verified for accuracy and completeness.
Quarterly Financial Reporting: Four Quarterly Financial Reporting appointments will be scheduled throughout the year. On-going bookkeeping verification services are provided for you on a quarterly basis. Books are verified for reasonableness and accuracy. Any questions you may have will also be resolved at this time. Quarterly Financial Reports are completed.
Special Projects: Sometimes you may need one-time special projects, such as customized setup for your payroll system, an inventory control system, or even a fully crafted bookkeeping system. You could potentially need unique financial research projects, accounting-related catch-up work, or large-scale reconciliation projects. Proformas and cash flow projections are also a common request. The range of possible client needs for Special Project Services is unlimited and determined only by your unique situation.
Tax Reporting Services: AccountNet! provides a wide range of tax reporting services including, but not limited to, all State, Local and Federal tax returns and forms. Payroll tax returns are also handled, but we encourage all clients to seriously consider the use of an outside payroll agency or service, such as Paychex, Inc., Sure Payroll, ADP, etc. for payroll processing, handling and reporting requirements.
Disclaimer: We do not provide review services or audit services. We are in no way trying to replace your existing tax or audit professionals. We will work closely with both for the benefit of your company!
What Clients Say
“We were 12 months behind in our books. AccountNet! cleaned it all up in two weeks, helped us catch up on taxes, and now we actually understand our finances.”
“I used to spend 5+ hours a week on bookkeeping. Now it’s 0. I just review reports once a month. It’s amazing.”
