NOW CFO comparisonWhat our month costs
The amount for our month is written beside a named scope on the site that carries our name. That dollar amount stays on that site.
What the month includes
Click to read this ›Tap to read this ›
The month on this practice has three jobs and a date. The first job in the month is matching the bank statement to the ledger. The company that already pays the staff keeps sending that deposit. This practice sets up the filings that company will carry, and it does not move the money. Each finished month is the source the return is built from, rather than a year reconstructed in March. The fall reading happens in October, while a choice can still change what the return will say. A job past that list is priced in its own writing before anyone starts it.
Their footer is the other price shape. It says the work is hourly, that fees are not hidden, and that a long-term requirement is not part of the offer. It does not print the hourly number. This page will not invent one. An hourly team and a monthly scope can both be honest. Keep a fee on the comparison only when the close, the payroll setup, and the return are named on that same page.
This comparison prints no rate, no retainer, and no range. A figure with no jobs beside it cannot be set next to their hourly footer. Our writing names the close, the payroll setup, and the return. The amount is agreed in writing before the first paid month, on the site that carries our name.
A first paid month names the three jobs and a date you can check. The statement is matched. The open items are written down. Items on the return that the fall can still change are marked on that page. A calendar time does not write the scope and does not set a fee. You can read this comparison and never open the calendar.
Payroll here is setup, not payday. We help you name the provider, the deposit schedule, and the filings that provider will run. Our invoice never lists the wages. The payroll company already on the books is the one that sends them. If a proposal you already hold prices a roster of roles and leaves the return with a different firm, write both amounts on one sheet before you treat them as one offer.
Their services page says you set the terms and the timeline of the engagement. That line is printed on their services page, and it is a fair rule to ask of any offer. Ours is a written scope with the close and the return inside it. Ask both sides for the writing. If one page names a matched role and the other names the closed month plus the return, you are looking at two offers.
What we will not pretend

We will not put a dollar amount into a sentence they did not publish. We will not call their consultation the same thing as a monthly close. Their page describes that first step as a complimentary consultation and does not print a dollar amount. That is their first step. The first month we charge for begins on that written scope. Both can be true.
