No-cost Bookkeeping for Small Businesses
Powered by Mindrest Accounting
We launch small businesses with a clean financial operating system and instant clarity on their numbers.
How it works:
-
We aim to solve two major problems:
Problem 1 – According to SCORE, 82% of small businesses fail due to cash flow issues. Most of these issues stem from a lack of financial clarity. We believe that if more business owners understood their financials, more would succeed. So we’re doing our part to change that.Problem 2 – Bookkeeping is an unregulated industry. That means anyone can call themselves a bookkeeper - no license or no training required. As a result, many small businesses end up working with unqualified providers who deliver messy and inaccurate data.
We’re here to raise the bar. Our goal is to help you recognize what good bookkeeping looks like, so you can make better decisions going forward.
This program is offered by Mindrest Accounting, a professional accounting firm committed to building clarity through calm and accurate systems.
-
We work on a “you provide the tools, we do the work” model.
We extend free bookkeeping to those willing to use our preferred tools that make our life easy. These tools are:
Relay Financial for Banking
Divvy for Credit Card/Spend Management
QuickBooks Online for Accounting Ledger
BILL.com for Payables Management
These tools make our work frictionless, and guarantee to make running your business easier. Most importantly, it guarantees you get improved financial clarity on your business.
These are essential tools businesses end up buying anyway. Instead of wasting money testing different options, we give you the exact list that works. You own the accounts to these tools, we just put it together and do the work for you.
If you’re open to using our proven system, we’ll handle your books for free. This ensures accuracy, timeliness, and preserves the operational rhythm we’ve carefully designed.
-
There is none! You get what we promise: no-cost bookkeeping. If you’re a fit for our program, we’ll walk you through how to get onboarded.
Once you’re onboarded, we’ll complete your two most-recent months of books, a financial report, and a business analysis.
You’ll gain clear insight into your business’s cash flow. Not just clean books, but real financial clarity.
After we’ve delivered this promise, the program ends, and you have three options:
Pay for bookkeeping - We explained in “The How It’s Free” section that our financial operating system makes our work frictionless, allowing us to offer free bookkeeping. If you like our services, but choose to keep your current systems, it creates friction in our workflow and we’ll have to charge you for bookkeeping ($250/mo) + our financial reports and analysis ($250/mo). Total monthly price of $500/mo.
Get more free bookkeeping - We’ll extend our free bookkeeping offer if you commit to using our financial operating system; and pre-purchasing your financial reports and analysis. Total monthly price of $250/mo.
Walk away with our system - If its not the right fit? No hard feelings. You’ll still walk away with:

To protect our working rhythm, it requires continued engagement from you. We set reasonable due dates for our questions, requests, and onboarding procedures.
If you consistently fail to meet our due dates, we will respectfully remove you from the program and open the spot to another applicant.
When you are ready to commit to financial clarity, you can resubmit another application and we will gladly have you back.

Habitually reviewing your financials doesn’t guarantee success for your company. However, all successful companies do regularly check their financials.
We’re providing free bookkeeping to empower you with a key component of a successful business owner.
We don’t do bookkeeping for the sake of bookkeeping.
Committing to our program means committing to using our financial reports.

Our program is currently only designed to intake small businesses at this time.
Just like the people we aim to help, we ourselves are a small business.
As we grow, we aim to provide free bookkeeping to a larger audience.
