Before accepting any new bookkeeping client, first offer a **free 4-hour review**.
Why?
Because you need to understand the full picture before you quote or commit:
β
Is there a backlog?
β
How many months are behind?
β
Are the books messy or unstructured?
β
Are bank accounts, receipts, and invoices complete?
β
Is there a proper system in place?
A 12-month backlog with no structure is not a βquick updateβ job. It needs time, accuracy, and a clear plan.
The free review helps the client test your work β and it helps you understand what you are walking into.
**Know the scope first. Then accept with confidence.**
