I offer virtual bookkeeping services for busy sole traders and small businesses
so they can reduce the overwhelm and focus on growing their business.
You’re passionate about your work, and
you love building your business.
But you don’t love keeping up with the books.
I’ve been there! I’ve run two teaching businesses as a sole trader, and I understand how overwhelming it is to do all of the jobs to run and nurture your business.
Imagine reducing the load while gaining clarity at the same time. Hiring a bookkeeper can:
-
keep your accounts and financial records organized and up-to-date
-
give you financial insights so you can make better business decisions
-
keep you ready for tax time year-round
My virtual bookkeeping services will give you more time – more money – and more growth.
Hello!
My name is Lona, and I am the owner and operator of Blue Sky Books, LLC.
With 21 years of experience running both a bricks-and-mortar and an online teaching business, I've gained a deep understanding of what it takes to manage finances efficiently. As a business owner, I've handled my own bookkeeping, managed budgets, and submitted taxes in both the US and the UK, navigating complex financial systems in two countries. This hands-on experience has given me a practical, detail-oriented approach to finances - one that ensures everything runs smoothly and on time.
At Blue Sky Books, I'm bringing that expertise to help you clear the clouds around your finances. I'm offering personalized virtual bookkeeping services to help you take control of your finances, stay organized, and avoid the stress of tax season. Whether you're a sole proprietor, a small business owner or an entrepreneur, I'm here to make sure your books are in order, so you can focus on what you do best.
Together let's create a clear path to a bright, successful future and to financial clarity and growth.
Services
Transaction Categorization and Reconciliation
I categorize your transactions on a monthly basis and reconcile your accounts so that you know exactly how you are spending money and where your revenue is coming from. This keeps your financial records up-to-date and tax ready.
Financial Statements
Monthly financial statements will make your financial status clear and show you what your most profitable activities are. We can go over them with you so you understand what they mean and how to use them to make good business decisions. These reports are required for tax planning or to fund your business with loans.
Organization and Tax Support
I organize your receipts and important paperwork in your business to help provide a clean paper trail for everything you do in your business. Get ahead of tax season by organizing everything in advance, so you’re ready to hand it off to your CPA without the last-minute rush.
Here's How It Works
Step 1: Request a Free Consultation
In your free consultation, we discuss the needs of your businesses and how I can help you. We decide if we are a good fit, and we design a bookkeeping package that meets your individual needs.
Step 2: The Set-Up Process
We gather your financial information to get your bookkeeping set up. I will need accountant access to your QuickBooks subscription, and if you don’t already have one, we can start a subscription.
Step 3: Relax and Focus on Being in Your Zone of Genius
I keep your business financial accounts organized and up-to-date while you focus on what you do best. I provide monthly financial reports so you can make smart decisions that will grow your business.
