§The short version

What TechBrot does, in one paragraph.

TechBrot Inc. is an independent U.S. bookkeeping and advisory firm. Small businesses come to us when their books are behind, broken, or about to outgrow whoever is keeping them — and we fix the file, then keep it fixed. The work spans QuickBooks file cleanup, catch-up, and monthly bookkeeping; QuickBooks setup and migration; payroll and multi-state sales tax; and fractional-CFO advisory when the books are ready to say something. Every engagement follows the same five-phase model: a free discovery call, a written fixed-fee scope within 3 business days, onboarding, delivery, and a CPA-ready handoff. Work is delivered by TechBrot directly, in your own QuickBooks file. Call (877) 751-5575. If we miss you, we return your call within one business day.

§Quick answers

Five questions, answered plainly.

What is TechBrot?

TechBrot is an independent U.S. bookkeeping and advisory firm. We fix books that are behind, broken or no longer trusted, then keep them current and decision-ready — cleanup, catch-up, monthly bookkeeping, payroll, setup, migration and fractional CFO advisory. Fixed fee, written scope, in your own file. Led by a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor.

Is TechBrot the same as Intuit or QuickBooks?

No. TechBrot is an independent firm and a QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program Member. We work in QuickBooks daily; we are not Intuit and are not affiliated with Intuit.

Who is TechBrot for?

U.S. small and mid-sized businesses that need accurate books and real advisory — e-commerce, real estate, construction, restaurants, professional services, SaaS, and any owner whose books are messy, behind, or unreliable for tax, lending, or growth decisions.

What makes TechBrot different?

You keep your own QuickBooks file, a named Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor is responsible for it, and the fee is fixed in writing before any work starts — not a shared ledger on someone else’s software, not an hourly meter.

How does an engagement start?

With a free discovery call, not a contract. We look at where your books stand, recommend the right engagement, and send a written fixed-fee scope within 3 business days of the call and the file information needed to quote. If TechBrot isn’t the right fit, we say so — and point you toward who is.

§Where bookkeeping is going

The value is moving to judgment.

Software categorizes transactions well — it can’t tell you whether the books are right, what the numbers mean, or what to do next.

Accuracy

Automated books still break

Bank feeds miscategorize, duplicates pile up, and reconciliations drift. Judgment catches what software quietly gets wrong.

Insight

Numbers need interpretation

A clean P&L is the start, not the answer. Advisory turns reports into cash-flow, pricing, and growth decisions.

Complexity

Complexity needs an expert

Multi-state payroll, sales-tax nexus, inventory, multi-entity structures — judgment calls automation isn’t built to make.

§Find your starting point

Where are you, actually?

“The books exist, but I don’t trust a number in them.”

Cleanup bookkeeping

Messy or wrong books rebuilt to a verifiable standard — the accounts in scope reconciled to source.

Start with cleanup

“We’re months — honestly, years — behind.”

Catch-up bookkeeping

The backlog quantified, a fixed fee, and books brought current and CPA-ready.

Start with catch-up

“I need this handled every month, by someone who gets back to me.”

Monthly bookkeeping

Recurring close on a fixed monthly fee — financial package delivered, a named operator on the file.

Start monthly

“QuickBooks itself is the problem.”

QuickBooks help

Errors, broken feeds, file damage, reconciliation drift — fixed inside your own file, separate from Intuit’s product support.

Get QuickBooks help

“We’re setting up — or moving from Desktop or other software.”

QuickBooks setup & migration

A chart of accounts designed for your entity, or a migration that doesn’t lose your history.

Start with setup

“The books are fine. I need to know what they’re telling me.”

Fractional CFO

Forecasting, KPI design, board reporting, capital-event readiness — judgment beyond bookkeeping.

§How engagements work

From first call to clean books.

STEP 01

Discovery

A 30-minute call — where you are, what’s broken, likely scope, and which engagement fits. No pitch.

STEP 02

Scoping

A written fixed-fee scope — deliverables, timeline, pricing — within 3 business days. No hourly billing.

STEP 03

Onboarding

Secure access to QuickBooks, bank feeds, payroll, and documents. Your operator runs a diagnostic and confirms the scope.

STEP 04 ✓

Delivery & review

Milestones with firm-standard review. Monthly engagements add a close package and a quarterly business review.

§Common questions

Answers before you ask.

What does a monthly bookkeeping engagement cost?
Fixed monthly fees, set in writing before work begins. Essentials runs $400–$700/month for simple books with 1–2 accounts and light volume; Standard runs $700–$1,400/month for an active small business with payroll and sales tax; Complex runs $1,400–$2,500+/month for multi-entity, inventory, or multi-state work. Your exact fee comes from the discovery call and arrives as a written scope — call (877) 751-5575 for a free discovery call.
Who actually does the work on my books?
TechBrot does, directly, in your own QuickBooks file. We identify your accountable lead before work begins and explain who performs and reviews the agreed work; TechBrot’s founder reviews each engagement against its scope before delivery. It is never a rotating queue.
How long does a QuickBooks cleanup take?
It depends on how many months are affected and how many accounts need reconciling — that’s exactly what the file review measures. You get a written fixed-fee scope with a timeline within 3 business days of the discovery call. Plan for 2–8 weeks, depending on scope and access to records.
Do you replace my CPA?
No — we make your CPA’s job easier. TechBrot delivers the bookkeeping, cleanup, payroll, and reporting layer; every engagement ends CPA-ready, and we coordinate directly with your tax preparer at year-end. If you don’t have a CPA, we’ll tell you when you need one.
How do you access my QuickBooks file securely?
Through QuickBooks’ own accountant-access invitation — you add us as an accountant user from your file, which you can revoke at any time. No password sharing, least-privilege access to bank feeds and payroll, and documents move through a secure share, not email attachments. Desktop and migration work may require agreed secure file access or working copies, handled under our data-processing terms.
What if we’re behind multiple years?
That’s a multi-year catch-up engagement, and it’s routine work for us. We quantify the backlog month by month, give you one fixed fee in writing, and bring the books current and CPA-ready — usually working newest-first so tax deadlines are protected. Call (877) 751-5575 for a free discovery call and an honest read on the backlog.
What happens if we stop working with TechBrot?
You keep everything. The QuickBooks file is yours, in your own account — we work in it, we never hold it. Any engagement ends with a CPA-ready handoff, and the exit terms are part of the written scope you sign, so there is no lock-in to discover later.
