In one paragraph
New York industry accounting, plainly.
Industry-specific accounting means configuring the books around how a business actually earns and spends — because the number that runs it differs by industry. Construction lives on job costing and WIP; real estate tracks per-property profit; law firms run New York IOLTA trust accounting; restaurants survive on prime cost; healthcare collects far less than it bills; nonprofits need fund accounting and CHAR500-ready books. TechBrot is a firm of Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors who build each engagement around those realities — with New York's layer (NYC sales tax, the UBT, IOLTA, CHAR500) included — fixed-fee, in your own QuickBooks file. We deliver the books; your CPA files. Not affiliated with Intuit Inc.

Why it matters
Generic bookkeeping misses the number that runs your business — twice over in New York.
Most bookkeepers treat every business the same: categorize, reconcile, produce a P&L. That's fine until you need the thing your industry actually turns on — job profitability on a build, prime cost on a Friday night, whether IOLTA trust funds reconcile to the penny. Those numbers don't appear by accident; the books have to be built to surface them.
In New York there's a second layer: the same law firm needs IOLTA and compliance with New York trust rules; the same restaurant needs prime cost and NYC's 8.875% sales tax tracked; the same nonprofit needs fund accounting and CHAR500-ready books. We configure QuickBooks around both — how your industry runs, and how New York taxes it. As automation commoditizes routine entry, that combined judgment is where the value now lives.
