How it works
Bookkeeping work from Massachusetts
Each client engagement is a monthly routine of categorizing, reconciling and reporting, done in QuickBooks Online, Xero or whatever the client already uses. We are a young firm and take a limited number of contractors, so we do not promise a volume of work. We do not have an office in Massachusetts, and the work is done online. The larger cities in Massachusetts that our pages cover include Boston, Worcester, Springfield.
If you live near Boston or elsewhere in Massachusetts, you can work from home; higher education, biotechnology, information technology, finance, health care, tourism, manufacturing and defense are among the sectors in the state.

- Steady monthly reconciliations and plain, prompt communication with clients

Massachusetts details
What to know about Massachusetts work
The state tax agency is Massachusetts Department of Revenue. You do not need to be an expert in its rules, but you should be comfortable reading its notices and knowing which filings belong to the client and which to their tax professional.
We do not hire for a location. A Massachusetts bookkeeper works from home, in the client's own file, on a monthly schedule.
What it pays
Pay and terms
Rates are discussed on a short call and confirmed in writing before you take on any client. We do not have a posted rate. This is independent contractor work with a 1099 at year end, and you choose what you accept.
This is general information, not legal advice. We are young and keep the team small on purpose, which means early contractors get first call as work grows.
