Service Pricing

Ballpark Pricing, Service by Service

No packages and no tiers to slot yourself into. Below is what most clients pay for one-time work, and what ongoing support covers when you need something steadier.

Ongoing Support

Working Together Month to Month

Most businesses need something steadier than a one-off: books kept current, payroll run on time, tax decisions made before the year closes rather than after.

There are no packages here and no tiers to choose between. Mindy looks at what your business actually needs, then quotes that. If what you need changes, the scope and the number change with it.

Ongoing work covers any combination of:

  • Monthly bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online or Xero
  • Bank and credit card reconciliation
  • Monthly profit and loss and balance sheet
  • Payroll processing and payroll tax filings
  • Tax planning through the year, not just at filing
  • Estimated quarterly tax calculations
  • Year-end business and personal returns
  • TaxDome client portal and direct access to Mindy

Quoted per client, month to month. Nothing to lock into.

Pricing is transparent, scoped to your situation, and confirmed before you commit — so there are no surprise invoices and no junior staff doing the work behind the scenes.

Pricing Questions

No. Ongoing work runs month to month, with no package to lock into and no contract term to serve out. If what you need changes, the scope and the quote change with it.

No, and that is deliberate. Books, payroll and tax situations differ enough between businesses that a fixed tier would fit almost nobody properly, and you would end up paying for parts of a bundle you do not use. Ongoing work is scoped to what your business actually needs and quoted from there.

The service figures are ballparks, not quotes, though the booked appointments are fixed fees. The ballparks show what most clients actually pay, and they move with the things that make your situation yours: transaction volume, number of accounts, how many months of bookkeeping are behind, entity type, and payroll headcount. A straightforward personal return sits at the low end of its range; a return that carries a business, rental property, or several states sits higher. On a free 15-minute introductory call, Mindy gets a sense of your situation and gives you a ballpark. A firm figure follows once she has seen what is involved.

Hourly billing makes sense for one-off projects with unknown scope — cleanup bookkeeping, IRS audit response, QuickBooks rescue — where the work expands or contracts based on what we find. Flat-fee or monthly retainer pricing makes sense for ongoing relationships where the scope is steady: monthly bookkeeping, quarterly tax planning, year-end returns. Ongoing bookkeeping, planning and payroll are quoted as a steady monthly figure rather than billed by the clock, so you know what to expect each month.

Note: The service figures on this page are ballpark ranges based on what most clients pay, not quotes. The booked appointments are fixed fees. Ongoing monthly work is scoped and quoted to your business size, transaction volume, and the services you actually use. Your exact number is confirmed once Mindy has seen what is involved, before any commitment.
