Bookkeeping for Freelancers — your questions answered
I am self-employed — do I really need a bookkeeper?
If your income is irregular or your expenses are hard to track, a bookkeeper saves you money in deductions you would otherwise miss — and in the hours you spend chasing receipts. Our freelancer plan is priced to make that obvious.
Can you help with quarterly estimated taxes?
We do not file taxes, but we calculate and remind you of quarterly estimated-tax amounts and due dates, and hand your CPA a clean Schedule C-ready package at year-end.
What if I have multiple 1099 income sources?
That is common and easy. We consolidate all your 1099 income and expenses into one clean set of books.
Do I need an LLC or S-corp for this plan?
No. Our freelancer plan works for sole proprietors, single-member LLCs, and solo contractors alike.
