Who Am I?
Erin Schanzenbach
As a trained bookkeeper, I can be your behind the scenes Go To support person who helps your business succeed. I am a born organizer and a bit of a perfectionist. I have been serving small businesses in various administrative positions for nearly 25 years. Coming from a family of Christian entrepreneurs, I believe the Lord has blessed me with the talents and experience to serve other business owners well in this capacity.
Remote Bookkeeping Services
Your books are critical to the health of your business. You need to know what’s coming in, what’s going out, and what that means for your business. Hiring a remote bookkeeper takes work off your plate AND gives you the data and reports you need to understand your business and make good decisions.
These are bookkeeping tasks I can stay on top of for you:
- Initial set up with QuickBooks Online.
- Recording & categorizing expenses on a regular basis.
- Reconciling bank statements & credit card statements each month.
- Invoicing your clients and following up to make sure payments are received.
- Streamlining accounts payable and accounts receivable.
- Adding fixed assets and business loans to your books to give you a better picture of how your business is doing.
- Producing financial statements on a monthly basis for your review.
- Collecting W-9s and filing 1099s
Bookkeeping Packages
Businesses can be like humans in a lot of ways. No two are exactly alike. The things which make your business unique are often what make it successful. I understand that and work with my clients to customize packages to their needs so they can keep doing what they do best.
Different types of businesses can have very different bookkeeping needs.
- Do you complete hundreds of sales per day or only a couple of sales per week?
- Do you hire employees or contractors?
- Do you want to do some of your own bookkeeping, or do you never want to touch it?
- Do you have a few administrative tasks you would also like to offload?
I do custom quotes for your business after a free consultation to discuss the details of your operation and your bookkeeping needs. The package prices here are ballpark prices.
