Real numbers, published on the page
Most bookkeeping firms make you sit through a call before they'll name a price. Here are the starting rates. Your final number is set after a free consultation and fixed in writing before anything begins.
Three monthly plans
Pick the one that matches your volume today. Moving between plans as your business changes is normal and costs nothing.
Starter
A newer or lower-volume business getting organized for the first time.
Starting at$350/month
- Up to 2 bank or card accounts
- Monthly categorization and reconciliation
- Profit & loss and balance sheet each month
- QuickBooks Online kept clean and current
- Email support, one business day response
Growth
An established business with more accounts, more volume, more moving parts.
Starting at$600/month
- Everything in Starter
- Up to 6 accounts and higher transaction volume
- Accounts receivable and payable tracking
- Quarterly review call to walk through the numbers
- Priority email and scheduled call support
Portfolio & Cross-Border
Real estate portfolios, multiple entities, or income that crosses a border.
Starting at$1,000/month
- Everything in Growth
- Multiple entities or properties, tracked separately
- Per-property profit & loss reporting
- Multi-currency transaction handling
- Coordination with your CPA at year end
Every plan is billed monthly by ACH on autopay, so there's never an invoice to chase. No long-term contract — 30 days' notice ends the engagement, and your QuickBooks file is always yours to keep.

Projects priced separately, once
Cleanup & catch-up
Quoted after a free diagnostic review, based on how many months are open and how much repair each one needs. You get a fixed written price before any work starts — never an open hourly meter.
Most cleanups are quoted per month of backlog. Businesses more than two years behind are quoted as a single project.
QuickBooks Online setup
Waived for clients starting on a monthly plan with clean books. Priced as a standalone project for businesses that want the foundation built properly and intend to keep doing their own bookkeeping.
Your QuickBooks Online subscription is billed by Intuit directly and is separate from anything Faro charges.
Pricing questions, answered honestly
Why is there a range and not one fixed price?
Because a business with 40 transactions a month and a business with 400 are not the same job, and pretending otherwise means either overcharging the small one or under-serving the large one. The published numbers are real starting points. After the consultation you get one specific number in writing, and it doesn't move unless your business materially changes.
Will the price go up later?
Your rate is fixed for at least twelve months. After that, it changes only if your volume or scope has genuinely grown, or if Intuit raises QuickBooks pricing enough that it has to be reflected. Any change comes with 60 days' written notice and a plain explanation. Nothing gets quietly adjusted on an invoice.
Do I pay for the QuickBooks subscription too?
Yes, and it's billed to you by Intuit, not by me. I'll help you pick the right plan level and set it up, but I don't mark it up or resell it. If a provider bundles software into their fee without showing you the underlying cost, ask what the markup is.
What happens if I want to leave?
Thirty days' written notice, and we're done. Your QuickBooks Online file belongs to you and stays in your name — I simply remove my access. I'll hand over a reconciled file and a written summary of where things stand so the next bookkeeper starts clean. Holding a client's books hostage is a practice worth walking away from.
Is there a discount if I pay annually?
Ask during the consultation. I'd rather discuss it openly than advertise a discount that quietly assumes a longer lock-in.
