The savviest entrepreneurs know that to stay on top, you first have to get on top of things. That means relying on a bookkeeping bestie like me to take care of your financial systems, so you can wholeheartedly dedicate yourself to what you love.
In theory, getting your books organized sounds simple: hold onto your receipts, plug in your revenue and losses, and voila: see the (=SUM) of your profits. But what about when you have more transactions than ever, you haven’t paid yourself consistently in months, you’re always guessing what you can expense, and tax season is creeping up?
You shouldn’t have to sacrifice your time to DIY your books, or pay thousands for an accounting firm or CPA to correct them. Because when your books are well-kept by a caring bookkeeper, you can make your numbers intentionally work for you.
I’m here to show you that bookkeeping doesn’t have to be stressful. It can give you peace of mind and a whole new level of confidence.
To give you clarity on how your money is coming and going
To help you make confident business decisions
To alleviate your worries if the CRA ever asks for proof of expenses
For when you need your books to keep up with your growth

The purpose of our discovery call is to determine what services you need, how I can help, and (*crosses fingers*) on whether or not we could be a good fit working together. My only ask is that you come to our discovery call prepared with your last two months of bank and credit card statements so we know how many transactions you average per month.
Honestly, there is no right answer to this question. Every entrepreneur is different. Most business owners I know had the time and patience to start with a simple spreadsheet or use the free version of Quickbooks, and that is totally okay! You’ve gotten this far with DIY so it’s easy to justify doing the bookkeeping yourself. BUT if you start to feel you can’t keep up with the mounting transactions, your profit isn’t increasing at the same pace as your sales, or if you’re starting to feel that DIY is sucking up more energy than what you think it should be, it might be time to outsource bookkeeping to someone that confidently does it for a living.
Poor bookkeeping can lead to tax penalties, missing out on potential tax deductions and increasing your risk of being audited by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). This is the time to engage Uplift Bookkeeping for clean up/catch up services. We will set up, review and update your financial records in Quickbooks to produce an accurate and organized set of books that can stand up to the scrutiny of CRA.
I request read-only online access to banks, credit cards, and your invoicing system (ex. Jane, Stripe,etc). Almost all of these allow a read-only accountant log in, and I will help you figure out how to set it up, so your data is always secure. Why do I need to give you separate access? This allows me to work efficiently and avoid bothering you for login requests or more information found within your accounts.
As a bookkeeper, we do not provide tax advice and/or services other than helping you file your GST/PST/HST payments, and this is built in as part of your monthly bookkeeping package. We will work closely with your accountant/tax preparer at year-end and during tax season.
At Uplift Bookkeeping, I’m here to genuinely support you and your business. As your financial wingwoman, you’ll never need to worry about your numbers or tax season again. Together, we’ll have comfortable conversations about money, and celebrate all your success stories!
