One For The Books, LLC - Business Accounting Solutions

"Hiring One For The Books (OFTB) as an accounting partner was the best decision I’ve made since opening my own business! Unlike other organizations that I had hired who gave me basic accounting, general business data, and generic suggestions, OFTB took the time to understand MY business. Once they understood my situation, isolated my pain points, and understood my vison they began to build a personal strategy for success. If your goal was to be an entrepreneur and to grow a business that could change your life but you’re spinning your wheels in the data, you’ve just had the wrong support team. The work that OFTB does and has done for my Agency has completely changed what my future looks like as an Owner. I was going deeper into debt, constantly frustrated, and feeling like there were more problems than solutions. Now, I’m on my way out of debt, confidently approaching each day, and equipped with answers before the problems even show up."

"A little over a year ago, I hired One For the Books, LLC. It has been one of the best decisions I have made for my business. I am the owner of SCALE Design+Build LLC. We develop, design+build, and sell single family residential projects. The team at OFTB helped me catch up on some accounting backlogs, prep the books for IRS filings, and together we crafted an improved accounts payable and cost tracking process which they would then use to carry out day to day bookkeeping for us. I initially engaged with them coming off the heels of a couple of disappointing experiences with other bookkeepers (an individual and the other an agency). From the very beginning, their approach has been to first seek to thoroughly understand my business before proposing any work or solutions. One of the first conversations I had with them took place only after I had sent back a detailed response to a number of questions presented to me. Some were challenging and required deep thinking about my business and what direction I wanted to take it. This set the tone for the relationship which has persisted until now. I could talk about the attention to detail, how hard working they are, and willingness to try creative solutions to address very specific and custom business needs, and they are all those and more, but there is something else that is unique about OFTB. They are willing to challenge you on existing ways of doing things that could be improved. Our frequent discussions about process are frank and direct, which I like, with the goal of continuous improvement. To that end, they are extremely tech savvy and are familiar with the latest cloud based apps. Although the core of our accounting is done in Quickbooks Online, we have assembled an entire suite of cloud based software at reasonable cost which all works together to allow for efficient workflows. They allow me to track a unified set of construction budgets, invoices, approvals, and make electronic payments directly to vendors. What used to take me hours each week to review invoices, process vendor payments, print out checks, and coordinate with vendors to drop off those checks, now feels almost effortless since much of it is done with a few clicks thanks to all the work OFTB has put in to help setup the backbone of the system. Because of their willingness to learn and adapt, I am confident that I will continue to grow together with them, and exited to see what else we can do together. Highly recommended!"

"I needed an accountant for my newly opened insurance agency and One For The Books LLC came highly recommended. Little did I know they would become as important to the success of my business as I am. The team at OFTB has taken the time to get to know what’s unique about my business. They have developed forecasting tools, they chart and graph all the important data I measure, and we have almost daily collaboration to recognize trends, make course corrections, and develop new strategies. Not only do I have the peace of mind that my bookkeeping, payroll, and taxes are completely taken care of, I have a team in my corner working as hard as I am to make my company successful. I cannot calculate the amount of money I have saved and made because of the partnership we have. Jonathan Bollier (Heart of Texas – Allstate)"

"One For The Books LLC has been a great partnership for our roofing and construction company! Their expertise in the complexities of construction accounting is what initially got me interested. They took the time to really get to know what’s unique about our business and proposed custom solutions instead of cookie-cutter service. They offer way more than just bookkeeping and accounting too! They have helped us forecast and model different scenarios of growth and opportunity, and helped us plan every detail of several multi-million dollar jobs. They even helped us design proposals. The entire team operates as a true extension of our company, and frees up our time as owners, to focus on and grow our business. They have helped our business scale tremendously and I highly recommend them!"

"One For The Books, LLC has been a huge blessing to me and my business. As a young woman who was starting an online boutique, I was scared of the legal process and thought the bookkeeping aspect was something I would never understand. To my surprise, One For The Books completely proved me wrong. Not only has the team taken the time to help me understand the accounting behind my business, but they have also shared extensive knowledge about running a business in general. They are attentive, timely, and organized, and it is comforting to know that I can get detailed information regarding my financials. They go above and beyond to help, and I would recommend One For The Books for anyone who needs help with their financial planning, book keeping, or accounting. The team is impeccable, and I am confident that my records are spot on!"
