Monthly Bookkeeping
Stay on top of your finances every single month without lifting a finger. We categorize transactions, reconcile accounts, and deliver clean, accurate books on a regular schedule. No backlogs, no surprises.
Our monthly bookkeeping service is the foundation of everything we do. We connect directly to your bank and credit card accounts, categorize every transaction according to your chart of accounts, and reconcile your statements so your books match reality — every month, without fail. You'll receive clear monthly financial reports including a profit and loss statement and balance sheet, giving you the real-time insight you need to make smart business decisions. Whether you're using QuickBooks Online, Wave, or another platform, we meet you where you are and keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Payroll Services
Pay your employees accurately and on time, every time — with full compliance handled for you. We manage payroll processing, tax withholdings, and direct deposit so you never miss a deadline. Let us take payroll off your plate for good.
Running payroll is one of the most time-sensitive and compliance-heavy tasks a small business faces. One missed deadline or miscalculated withholding can mean penalties and unhappy employees. Twin Birches Bookkeeping handles full-service payroll processing for businesses of all sizes — from one employee to fifty. We calculate wages, overtime, and deductions, manage federal and Maine state tax filings, process direct deposits, and generate year-end W-2s and 1099s. We stay current on payroll tax law changes so you don't have to, keeping your business protected and your team paid correctly.

Tax Preparation & Planning
We prepare business and individual tax returns with accuracy and a sharp eye for every deduction you're entitled to. Year-round planning means fewer surprises and more savings when April rolls around. We work with sole proprietors, LLCs, S-Corps, and partnerships.
Tax season shouldn't be a scramble. Because we maintain your books throughout the year, preparing your tax return is a natural extension of the work we already do together — not a stressful data-gathering exercise. We prepare federal and Maine state returns for small businesses and their owners, identifying legal deductions and credits that reduce your tax burden. Beyond just filing, we offer proactive tax planning conversations to help you make smart decisions before the year ends — things like timing major purchases, structuring owner compensation, and planning for estimated quarterly payments. We want you walking out of tax season feeling like you came out ahead.

Accounts Receivable & Payable
Keep cash flowing in the right direction with organized, timely invoicing and bill management. We track what you're owed and what you owe, so nothing slips through the cracks. Healthy cash flow starts with clean AR and AP.
For many small businesses, the biggest financial challenge isn't revenue — it's cash flow. Slow-paying clients and overlooked vendor bills can put even a profitable business in a tight spot. Twin Birches Bookkeeping manages your accounts receivable by generating and sending invoices, tracking outstanding balances, and flagging overdue accounts so you can follow up quickly. On the payable side, we record and organize your vendor bills, schedule payments to avoid late fees, and make sure nothing gets missed. The result is a business that knows exactly where it stands financially — and has the cash available to keep operating smoothly.

Financial Reporting & Analysis
Get reports that actually make sense and tell you something useful about your business. We go beyond raw numbers to explain what's working, what needs attention, and where your money is going. Smarter reports lead to smarter decisions.
Many business owners have access to financial reports but aren't sure what they're really telling them. We translate your numbers into plain-language insights — reviewing profit and loss trends, flagging unusual expense categories, tracking your margins over time, and helping you understand your true financial position. Whether you need reports for a bank loan application, an investor conversation, or simply your own peace of mind, we produce clean, professional financials that hold up to scrutiny. We'll walk you through the numbers together and help you use them as a real management tool, not just a compliance requirement.

QuickBooks Setup & Cleanup
Starting fresh or inheriting a mess? We set up QuickBooks the right way from the start, or clean up an existing file that's gotten out of hand. Accurate, well-organized books are the foundation of every good financial decision.
A surprising number of small businesses are running on QuickBooks files that have months or even years of errors baked in — duplicate transactions, miscategorized expenses, unreconciled accounts, and missing data. It happens easily, especially when bookkeeping gets pushed to the back burner. Twin Birches Bookkeeping specializes in QuickBooks Online setup for brand-new businesses and file cleanup for established ones. We audit your existing data, correct errors, rebuild your chart of accounts if needed, and create a clean starting point that you can trust going forward. We also train you or your staff on best practices so the books stay healthy long-term.
