Pricing

FAQ

• How much does it cost to work with Accountingprose?

  No two businesses are the same, so our pricing may vary greatly depending on your need. We strive to build trust with you and want you to fairly compare us against other options available. Also, nothing is worse than being charged too much because of predetermined “standard packages” or undercharging which can lead to endless scope creep issues and annoying rate adjustments down the line. To give us adequate time to prepare a tailored strategy for you, the entire process from our initial discovery call to receiving a proposal typically takes about three business days.

• How long are your contracts?

  Rather than ask for a long-term, upfront commitment, we only require a month-to-month contract from our customers. This allows us to prove ourselves and earn your business every single month. We firmly believe that relationships are built on mutual respect and appreciation and we never want to hold you or your business hostage.

  That being said, we have an incredibly low client churn rate (1.82%) vs our industry average (8%) because we spend the time to get to know our clients and find ways to add value each and every day. We have many clients who have been here since we started the business in 2010, which shows that our work and relationships stand the test of time.

• What is your cancellation policy?

  Our engagements require a 4-week notice for cancellation, but you can cancel at any time.

• Why should I hire Accountingprose vs hiring an in-house accountant?

  A typical salary for an accountant in Denver is $60,000 per year. When you add in things like payroll tax, unemployment insurance, benefits, software, office space (or outfitting a remote workspace), and time off that figure can quickly jump up to $70,000 per year or more. Not to mention the need to recruit, hire, and manage your new accountant - and your time is now spent managing people vs running your business.

  When you hire Accountingprose, you are teamed up with an onboarding accountant, controller, and ongoing accountant who has been carefully vetted and trained and have worked with hundreds of businesses just like yours. This experience gives them the insight and know-how to streamline your processes, automate the flow of information into your accounting system, and provide relevant and timely advice and feedback.

• Why should I hire Accountingprose vs doing my own books?

  Even if you don't hire us, please don't handle your own accounting. You risk making expensive errors while missing out on the opportunity cost associated with investing this time into what matters -- building a successful business. Instead of spending countless hours sorting through financials, shift that energy towards growing your business!

• How quickly can we get started?

  Once you sign off on our proposal, we can typically begin our onboarding process the next business day. We will send our first invoice which will be paid via Chargebee, you will complete our intake form which helps us to gather important details and documents, and then you will book a call with your onboarding team.

  During your first call, you will get to know each other, and receive a complete needs list, and project timeline. Depending on the complexity of your project, your onboarding timeline will vary but we generally see projects going from onboarding to ongoing accounting in 45-60 days. We'll keep you informed about every step along the way so that you're aware of what's going on at all times.

• What size of businesses do you work with?

  From pre-revenue startups to large established companies, we have the capacity to work with businesses of any size. We typically take on clients who are earning more than $1M per year and have at least a one-year runway. We tend to be the last stop before hiring an in-house accountant or accounting team and, if you outgrow us, we will be sure to hand the keys to your kingdom to ensure a successful transition.
