You're probably in one of two situations right now.
Either way, we can help.
You have a bookkeeper, but...
They don't respond when you actually need them
QuickBooks is a tangle and you're not sure what's going on
Every month's bill is a surprise
You don't trust the numbers in your reports
Sound familiar? Let's talk.
You're doing it yourself in QuickBooks, but...
It's eating your nights and weekends
You can't tell if you're actually profitable
Tax season is coming and you're behind
You know you're missing things, you just don't know what
Sound familiar? Let's talk.
Either way, I can help.
QuickBooks is what I do.
Hi, I'm Matt
I started Equipped Bookkeeping because I was tired of watching small business owners get burned by bookkeepers who didn't pick up the phone, didn't explain the numbers, and didn't actually care.
I'm a certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor and I work with small businesses across the Central Valley. Whether your QuickBooks needs setup, cleanup, or just someone competent running it month after month, that's what I do.

"I usually hear back the same day."
Switching bookkeepers always felt like a risk, but working with Equipped made it easy. I'm used to sending an email and waiting days, with Matt, I usually hear back the same day. He often reaches out before I even realize something needs attention. I stopped worrying about my books because I knew Matt was already on it.

"Now I can actually see how my business is doing."
I was a couple years behind on bookkeeping and overwhelmed by the thought of catching up. My CPA recommended Matt. He was responsive and got my books completely caught up. Now I can actually see how much my business is making and plan to grow it and reduce taxes.

"That one catch saved me $8,000 in taxes."
I asked Equipped to catch me up on seven months of books. While reviewing, they caught a huge mistake. My broker's system showed $21,000 more income than I'd actually received. They flagged it immediately. That one catch saved me nearly $8,000 in unnecessary taxes, more than double what I'm paying them for the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost?
Flat monthly pricing, based on your transaction volume and complexity. I'll give you an exact quote on the consultation call. No pressure, no obligation. Most of my small business clients land between $300–$1500/month. The first month is free, so you'll know exactly what you're getting before you pay anything.
What's the catch on the first month free?
There isn't one. I'll handle your first month of regular monthly bookkeeping at no cost - categorizing transactions, reconciling accounts, and delivering your reports. If you don't see the value, walk away. Keep the work I did, no hard feelings.
(Note: if your books need a catch-up or cleanup before I can start ongoing work, that's quoted separately as a flat fee. I'll explain everything clearly on the call.)
What if my QuickBooks is a complete disaster?
That's where I do my best work. Years of miscategorized transactions, broken reconciliations, duplicate accounts, mystery balances - I've fixed worse. Cleanup is quoted as a flat fee separately from monthly bookkeeping, so you'll know the exact cost upfront before any work starts. No judgment, just clean books.
How fast will you respond when I need something?
Fast. I aim to respond to texts and emails within a few hours during the day, and same-day on evenings and weekends. If something's urgent, just call. The clients I've worked with for years all say the same thing: I'm easier to reach than their old bookkeeper ever was.
Do you also do my taxes?
Nope, taxes aren't my thing. That's your CPA's job, and I work alongside them. What I do is keep your books so clean that when tax season rolls around, your CPA gets a tidy package of reports and reconciled accounts from me.
If you don't have a CPA yet, I can connect you with a great one.
Have a question we didn't answer?
Just book a call.
One last thing
You've got 2 options from here.
Option 1: Close this tab. Keep wrestling with QuickBooks. Keep dreading tax season. Keep hoping the books will somehow figure themselves out.
Option 2: Book a call. Tell me what's going on. We'll figure out if I can help. Your first month of bookkeeping is on me, so there's nothing to lose.
I genuinely love this work. I love watching small business owners stop wrestling with software they don't want to learn and start making real decisions with real numbers.
If that sounds like what you need, just book a call.
