Your books, reconciled — and kept that way.
Stevens Keeps handles monthly bookkeeping, backlog cleanup, and bookkeeping software setup for small businesses across New Jersey. No jargon, no surprises at tax time — just books that are current, accurate, and yours to understand.
Most clients come to us at one of three points.
Months of backlog
Bank feeds are months out of date, and tax season is closing in. We triage first, then catch you up.
DIY Bookkeeping gone sideways
Miscoded transactions, duplicate entries, an owner's draw filed as an expense. We clean it up and set guardrails so it doesn't happen again.
Too busy to keep up
The business grew past the spreadsheet. You need books that are accurate every month without you touching them.
Three ways to work with us.
Pick a starting point — most clients start with a cleanup, then move to monthly.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Ongoing, done-for-you bookkeeping so your books are always current and tax-ready.
- Bank & credit card reconciliation, every month
- Categorized transactions & clean chart of accounts
- Monthly P&L and balance sheet
- Direct line to your bookkeeper, no ticket queue
Books Cleanup / Catch-Up
Behind by a few months or a few years — we reconstruct and reconcile your books to get you current.
- Historical transaction review & correction
- Duplicate & miscoded entry cleanup
- Reconciled statements, month by month
- Tax-ready handoff to your CPA
Bookkeeping Software Setup
A proper chart of accounts and configuration from day one — in QuickBooks, Wave, or whichever platform fits your business.
- QuickBooks Online, Wave, or other platform setup & bank connections
- Chart of accounts built for your industry
- Invoicing & app integrations configured
- A short walkthrough so you're not guessing
