I pay $175 a month and that includes book keeping and tax prep for the business. They specialize in consultants and helped structure the LLC taxed as an S-corp to save a ton of money on payroll taxes. They prepared a statement for justification on the portion of funds I take as salary. They balance my bank accounts as part of the book keeping. When applying for loans having several years of CPA stamped financials makes applications a breeze. They have stopped me from doing a few borderline things which may have been technically legal, saved me a minuscule amount of money, but would have almost guaranteed an audit in their opinion. When I had some very complex ideas for some things I wanted to do, the CPA scheduled an hour call to discuss and give me details on how to make it work. I used to do my own taxes. And still do for my personal taxes. But I find having a firm keep my books totally worth it. Searching for book keepers that specialize in independent contractors should bring them and some competitors up.
