Backoffice
LOCAL BOOKKEEPERS Software + a human, for one flat price

Bookkeeping with
a real person.

You're running a business. Bookkeeping is the first thing that slips. We pair you with a bookkeeper who closes your books every month and knows your account by name. Software handles the busywork. They handle the judgment.

Not a queue, not a ticket. Your books sit on one person's desk.
Your bookkeeper

One person who answers,
and a team behind them.

Most bookkeeping services route you through a ticket queue. We don't. You get a named local bookkeeper, on their phone, email, or chat during business hours. They learn your business once. Same name every month, same person who closed your books last month closing them this month.

One named contact, plus a team
A real bookkeeper, picked for your business and introduced by name. A teammate who knows your account covers when they're out, so you never start over with a stranger.
Reach them through the channel of your choice
Phone, email, or in-app chat in Backoffice, so messages route to the same person every time. Average response under an hour during business days.
Their job is your books, not the next ticket
Full-time, Local, and they keep your account for as long as you're a customer. No queue, no shift handoff, no starting over.
Technology behind them, not in front of them
The software does the data work so your bookkeeper can spend their time on judgment calls. The wire that could be taxes or a loan. The Zelle that needs context.
"...from the very first connection Dylan was very knowledgeable and displayed absolute professionalism"

The platform

Three things you'll
care about. That's it.

Most accounting tools ask you to live in them. Backoffice is the opposite. You log in to see your bookkeeper, answer the few questions that need you, and look at the shape of your business. The rest is being handled.

Inside Backoffice

The software your bookkeeper uses,
that you can see too.

One workspace for both sides of the relationship. Your bookkeeper categorizes, reconciles, and closes. You see what they're doing, what needs you, and what your business actually looks like, in plain English.

What you've probably had before

The bookkeeper who
stopped picking up.

Most owners we talk to aren't shopping bookkeeping software. They're replacing a person who let them down. A local who got too busy, a service that ghosted at tax time, a CPA who only surfaces in April. Backoffice is built to be the opposite of that.

Your last bookkeeper

Quiet for weeks.

Over-burdened BK, CPA-by-the-month, or the service that closed mid-year.
A name on the contract you've never spoken to
Voicemails that fill up in April and never get returned
Books delivered "sometime next week" for three months running
You email. You wait. You email again.
Errors caught by your CPA, not your bookkeeper
Cheap until you actually need them
Backoffice

Software, behind a person.

A named bookkeeper. Technology is just how we keep up.
A named bookkeeper, introduced on day one
Phone, text, email, or chat (pick whichever works for you)
Books closed every month, P&L in your inbox on schedule

How it works

Three steps to your
first closed month.

Connect your accounts, get matched with a bookkeeper, and the first close lands inside 30 days. You don't become a bookkeeper. You stay the operator.

We pull your transactions automatically through Plaid. No statement chasing, no CSV cleanup. Coming from QuickBooks? We bring over your chart of accounts, vendors, and trailing history during onboarding.

Meet your bookkeeper

Meet your bookkeeper

A named bookkeeper introduces themselves by name. They learn your business, your accounts, and your edge cases. Once.

03
By day 30 · clean P&L
First close in 30 days

First close in 30 days

They close the first month, hand you a clean P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, and tell you what they saw. Then it's monthly, like clockwork.

About the 30-day promise. The 30 days counts from the moment your accounts are connected and you've answered the onboarding questions. If we need to catch up months of prior bookkeeping, or we're waiting on you for context, that time doesn't count. We'll tell you up front during onboarding what to expect.
When it actually matters

The moments your books
have to be right.

Bookkeeping is invisible until you need it. A lender call, a second location, tax season. Backoffice keeps you ready for the moments where the books actually decide something.

Your lender wants a clean P&L by Friday.
Your bookkeeper exports it the same day. No scramble, no apology email.
You're opening a second location.
Your books already show what worked at the first one. Bring the second one online without losing visibility on either.
Tax season is 60 days out.
Your books are CPA-ready every month, not in a three-week April sprint. Forward an email and you're done.
Customers

People stay because of the person.

Ten years of running books for small businesses. The thing that keeps coming up in reviews isn't the software. It's who picks up the phone.

“I have been with Backoffice since about 2018 when I opened my first business. At first, we tried an "automated" bookkeeping service but it missed the nuances required for accurate books. I switched to Backoffice and have recommended them to friends who start businesses. They make sure everything is categorized and organized well, and having clean books with monthly reports helps me make the key decisions that keep my business running smoothly.”

“We have used Backoffice for basic bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online Advanced for two years. Communication has been timely and consistent, and uploading documents is easy and organized. They get the job done so we can focus on sales and service, and the end-of-month reports are clean and help us focus.”

“Getting the accounting set up for my new law practice felt overwhelming at first, but this team made it seamless. Their onboarding was smooth and efficient, and they played a key role in organizing my financials right from the start. I'm confident in their expertise and excited about a long-term partnership.”

Pricing

One price. A real bookkeeper included.

Most bookkeepers charge by the hour or by transaction volume, so your bill moves every month. $399 is flat. It does not change as your business grows. The dedicated bookkeeper is in the base price, not an add-on.

... was exactly what my business needed. They cleaned up months of messy, overdue bookkeeping, and got everything back on track. Gina was a rockstar, and her attention to detail made the process smooth and stress free. ... they gave me valuable insights into my financials and set me up with a platform that makes things much easier. Their streamlined approach has saved me hours every week, and now I have a clear picture of my business's finances at all times.
