Question 1

How does working with a bookkeeper actually work?

Accepted Answer

We start with a free consultation to learn about your business, your current financial records, and the support you need. From there, you'll receive a customized proposal with a clear scope of work. Once we begin, we'll establish a process that fits the services you've selected and keep you informed along the way.

Question 2

What accounting software do you work with?

Accepted Answer

We can work with a variety of bookkeeping and small business financial systems. During your consultation, we'll review what you're currently using and determine whether it works well for your business. If you're starting from scratch or need a better system, we can help you choose and organize one that fits your needs.

Question 3

Do you offer remote bookkeeping?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Holman Ledger Co. is a remote-first practice serving businesses across North Carolina and nationwide. Documents can be shared securely, and meetings can take place by phone or video, allowing you to receive personalized support without needing to be local.

Question 4

What reports will I receive each month?

Accepted Answer

Reporting is tailored to the services your business needs. Monthly bookkeeping clients may receive reports such as a Profit & Loss statement, Balance Sheet, and cash flow reporting, along with clear insight into what the numbers mean. Custom KPI tracking and additional reporting can also be included when appropriate.

Question 5

Is my business too small — or too far behind?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. We work with solo business owners, new and growing businesses, and established small businesses. And if your books have fallen behind, clean-up work is a regular part of what we do. Whether you're a few months behind or dealing with older records, we'll help determine the best way forward.

Question 6

How much does bookkeeping cost?

Accepted Answer

Every business is different, so pricing depends on factors such as transaction volume, number of accounts, the condition of your current books, and the level of support you need. After your free consultation, you'll receive a clear, customized proposal based on the scope of work — so you'll know what your services will cost before we begin.

Question 7

Do you prepare taxes?

Accepted Answer

Holman Ledger Co. specializes in bookkeeping and small business advisory services and does not prepare income tax returns. We can help keep your financial records organized and up to date throughout the year so they're ready for your CPA or tax professional when tax season arrives.

Question 8

Can you help me set up the financial side of a new business?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our business startup support can help new business owners establish organized financial systems from the beginning, including bookkeeping setup, financial record organization, separating business and personal finances, and creating practical routines for managing the financial side of the business.

Question 9

How do we get started?

Accepted Answer

Start by scheduling a free consultation. We'll talk through your business, where things currently stand, and what kind of support you're looking for. From there, you'll receive a customized proposal outlining the recommended services, scope of work, and next steps.
