My office is outside of your coverage area. How can I use your services?


Distance is not a problem! Thanks to the wonders of technology, there are many ways that information can be exchanged without having to schedule a meeting - such as fax, email or regular mail. We can even arrange for your monthly service to include pick-up and delivery. We also recommend a great service called GoToMyPC.com. It lets you log onto your computer from any internet connection. It's only $20 a month and it allows us to do training and regular bookkeeping work on your system from another location.

I don't use an accounting program, so how would you keep my books?

 

We use QuickBooks in our office for our clients that are not currently using accounting software. Your company would be set up in QuickBooks as a separate entity and all your bookkeeping data would be processed on our server. With this information at our fingertips, we are able to generate any reports - financial, payroll, sales or otherwise - that you may need. Our server is backed up every night to a secure system off-site so your data is always protected.

I prefer to invoice customers myself, but hate to reconcile my bank accounts and credit cards. Can you help me?


Of course we can! All services are independent and can be requested individually or as a group. For example, a service package can consist of just a monthly account reconciliation or it can be weekly visits to post payments received, generate customer statements and collections. Whatever your needs are, there is a combination of services that is ideal for you.

I use an employee leasing company to handle my payroll. How could I save money by using your payroll service?


Most companies use employee leasing programs to take advantage of their Worker's Comp coverage. Many small businesses might be surprised to find out that they are not required to carry Worker's Comp due to their size or line of work! Payroll service through SSB is a fee based on the number of employees paid, not a percentage of your gross payroll. Your expense is the same every month, regardless of how many hours your employees work. And you write the checks yourself, so there are no auto-debits from your bank account to worry about. With this service, we also process all quarterly and yearly payroll tax returns. Peace of mind comes from knowing that your payroll is being handled professionally, confidentially and efficiently!

I have several businesses. Sometimes, when money is tight, I have to move money between them to pay the bills. Can you work with that?


You would be surprised to know how many people do this. It's unfortunate, but sometimes necessary. The best way to track these funds is to create an account called "Due to/from -companyname-" By coding the funds in & out to this account you will be able to see how much is owed to each company
