Your books, caught up and closed on time.

I am a CPA in Edmonton working in QuickBooks Online every day. I clean up the file, review every transaction myself, and send you statements you can actually use to run the business. Automation handles the repetitive half, which is why this costs less than a traditional firm.

Built for Alberta owner operators

Most of my clients run a business with 1 to 40 people, do their own quoting and hiring, and have no interest in becoming a bookkeeper.

We are probably a fit if

  • You are months behind and dreading the year end package
  • Your accountant keeps asking for things you cannot find
  • Payroll, GST, and source deductions eat your weekends
  • You want numbers you trust before you quote the next job

Probably not a fit if

  • You need an audit or a review engagement
  • You want the cheapest possible data entry and nothing else
  • You are looking for someone to make the numbers say something else

What I handle

Pick the whole thing or just the parts you are drowning in.

Monthly bookkeeping

Transactions coded, bank and credit cards reconciled, receipts matched, and a clean set of books every month.

Payroll

Pay runs, source deductions, T4 and T5 slips, records of employment, and WCB reporting on schedule.

GST and year end

GST returns filed on time and a year end package your accountant can pick up without a single follow up email.

Financial statements

Monthly statements plus a short plain language read on margin, cash, and what changed since last month.

NetSuite administration

Setup, cleanup, saved searches, approvals, and reporting for businesses already on NetSuite.

Catch up and cleanup

Months or years behind rebuilt from the source documents, so your filings can be brought current and the file starts telling the truth.

QuickBooks first, because that is what most of you already run

I work inside your existing file rather than pushing you onto software that suits me.

QuickBooks Online

The system most Alberta small businesses land on, and the one I spend the most hours in. Setup, cleanup, bank rules, class and location tracking for job costing, sales tax codes set for Alberta, and the app stack around it kept tidy.

QuickBooks help in detail

Sage 50

Common with older Alberta businesses and their accountants. I work in it as is, or move you to QuickBooks Online when the desktop file starts holding you back.

NetSuite

For businesses that have outgrown small business software. Administration, reporting, and month end close from someone who closes books in the system.

NetSuite support

What lands in your inbox

Not a folder of spreadsheets. A dashboard you can read in a minute and a statement pack your accountant will accept as is.

How it works

Three steps, and you are out of the books. If you want the detail on what software does and what I review myself, that is on the how I work page.

Free 20 minute call

You tell me the mess. I tell you straight whether I can fix it, what it costs, and how long the catch up takes.

Cleanup and setup

I take over the file, fix the history, connect the feeds, and put the automation in place. You send documents one way and stop chasing them.

Close, every month

Books closed by the tenth, statements in your inbox, and a short call whenever you want to talk about the numbers.

What it costs

Monthly bookkeeping starts at $400 a month, and most clients land between $400 and $900 depending on transaction volume and payroll. No packages to squeeze yourself into, and you hear your number before anything starts.

A fixed monthly fee

  • From $400 a month, priced on transaction volume and number of accounts
  • Payroll priced per employee on top of the monthly fee
  • The same number every month, so you can budget it
  • Agreed in writing before the first month starts

Catch up quoted once

  • Prior periods are a separate one time quote
  • Given after I look at the file, not guessed on the phone
  • Broken into stages if the backlog is large

No meter running

  • Questions and calls do not generate an invoice
  • If the work genuinely changes, we talk before anything changes
  • You can leave with your file and your data at any time

Questions I get asked

I am two years behind. Is that too far gone?

No. Catch up work is most of what I do. I start with the oldest open year, rebuild it, and get you current so filings can be brought up to date.

What does the automation actually do?

Software handles the repetitive work: pulling transactions, matching receipts, coding the ones it has seen before, and chasing missing documents. I review everything before it becomes your financial statements. The judgement stays with a CPA.

Do you work with my accountant?

Yes. Most clients keep their tax accountant. I hand over a clean year end package so their work takes hours instead of weeks, which usually lowers that bill too.

Which software do you use?

QuickBooks Online and Sage 50 for most small businesses, and NetSuite for companies that have outgrown them. If you are already on something, I work in it rather than forcing a move.

Do you file my corporate taxes?

Business tax filings are handled as a separate engagement. Tell me what you need on the call and I will be clear about what is included.

Do we have to meet in person?

Only if you want to. Everything works remotely, and I am happy to meet in Edmonton when it helps.

Is my information safe?

Documents stay in secure cloud storage with access limited to your file. I never move client records through personal email or messaging apps.

Who you are hiring

I am Kaleem Siddiqui, a Chartered Professional Accountant in Edmonton. I have spent my career in the part of accounting most people never see: the reconciliations, the accruals, the month end that has to balance before anyone can make a decision.

What I like is the step after the books are clean. Once the numbers are right, they start telling you where the money is going and which jobs are actually worth taking. That is the part I want you to have.

I also build the automation myself. If a task happens the same way every month, it should not need a person, and the time saved goes back into reviewing your file properly.

Let us look at your file together

Twenty minutes, no charge, no pitch. If I am not the right fit I will say so and point you somewhere better.
