What Do You Guys Pay A Freelance Book Keeper?
I do not think i am alone on this.. I absoultly HATE the book keeping end of the business. I can't stand it. I know i need to get it under control.
My dad says i got to do it, because its part of running a business. But i disagree. I'm looking to hire someone for acouple hours a week just to enter my invoices, expenses, deposits, job expenses, payroll etc into quick books every week. I'd rather be out producing then doing something i hate. Whats the going rate for freelance book keeping? I'm guess not more than 5 hours aweek. I am planning on doing 5-6x as much gross sales as last year so i really have no idea how much additional paper work their will be. Any adivce would be appreicated. Matt |

Re: What Do You Guys Pay A Freelance Book Keeper?
I do all my own.
Bookkeepers in this area however, can be anywhere between $15-$50 per hour... I'd figure out what you need them for exactly before they decide what you need them for... Like you handle the estimate / invoice part of qb... Let them handle payroll, bank rec's, expenses... Look at 2-4 hrs per week, less if you have it setup nicely, and they have a clue as to how to properly use qb... How fast they type makes a difference too. |

Go to your local college and grab an accounting major. Most of them will be more than happy to work for weekend play money. $75 per week should be enough to spend.
