Questions About Working With 740 Accounting & Bookkeeping

Straight answers about pricing, QuickBooks cleanup, monthly bookkeeping, and working with a bookkeeper who actually understands trades businesses in the Ohio Valley.

How much does bookkeeping cost with 740 Accounting & Bookkeeping?

Monthly bookkeeping with 740 Accounting & Bookkeeping starts at $499 a month. Your exact price depends on transaction volume, whether payroll needs to be tracked, and how many accounts need to be reconciled each month.

Every engagement starts with a free QuickBooks review so you get a real number before you commit to anything.

What does a QuickBooks cleanup cost?

QuickBooks cleanup pricing is quoted after we look at your actual file. A few months of missed reconciliations costs less to fix than a file that has never been touched.

We work with what you already have. No starting over, no rebuilding your file from scratch. That keeps cleanup costs lower than a full rebuild.

Do you charge by the hour or a flat monthly rate?

Ongoing monthly bookkeeping is billed as a flat monthly rate, not an hourly rate. You know what you're paying every month, with no surprise invoice for extra hours.

QuickBooks cleanup projects are quoted as a one-time fee based on the scope of the work, confirmed before we start.

Is the free QuickBooks review really free?

Yes. The free QuickBooks review is exactly that, free. We look at your actual QuickBooks file, tell you honestly what we see, and only then talk about pricing.

There's no pressure to sign up. Some businesses walk away with a short list of fixes they can make themselves.

What's included in the starting monthly price?

At the starting monthly rate, you get every account reconciled, transactions categorized correctly, and a full monthly close of your books.

Add-ons like job costing setup, payroll coordination, and employee training are scoped separately depending on what your business needs.

Will my monthly price change as my business grows?

As your business adds employees, jobs, or transaction volume, your bookkeeping needs grow with it. If that means your monthly scope changes, we'll talk it through with you before anything changes on your invoice.

Nothing changes without a conversation first.

Do you charge extra for employee training?

Employee training, where we come in and train whoever already handles your books, is scoped and priced as its own service. It's built around your team and your workflow, not a generic class.

Ask about it during your free QuickBooks review and we'll price it based on what your team actually needs.

Are there any setup fees before monthly bookkeeping starts?

If your QuickBooks file is clean and current, monthly bookkeeping can typically start without a separate setup fee. If the file needs work first, that cleanup is quoted as its own one-time project.

You'll know exactly what that looks like after your free QuickBooks review, not after you've already signed up.

Do you require a long-term contract?

Monthly bookkeeping with 740 Accounting & Bookkeeping doesn't require a long-term contract. We earn the relationship every month by keeping your books clean and giving you numbers you can use.

How do I know which service I actually need?

Most business owners aren't sure if they need a one-time cleanup, ongoing monthly bookkeeping, or just training for the person already doing their books. That's exactly what the free QuickBooks review is for.

We look at your file first and tell you what it actually needs, not what's easiest to sell you.

What happens during the free QuickBooks review?

The free QuickBooks review is a real look at your file, not a sales pitch. We check your chart of accounts, your reconciliations, and how your books are currently set up.

You leave the review knowing exactly what's wrong, what's working, and what it would take to get your books where they need to be.
