FAQ

Things people ask before reaching out.

A few honest answers about how this works. If your question is not here, the contact form or a discovery call is a good next step.

Do I need to be in Chattanooga to work with you?

No. I'm based in Chattanooga, Tennessee and that's where most of my local clients are, but I work with small business owners remotely too. If you're comfortable sharing access to your books online, location isn't a barrier.

Can you help me set up QuickBooks Online, or fix books that have fallen behind?

Yes to both. I do clean QuickBooks Online setups from scratch, and I regularly take on catch-up and clean-up work when books have slipped, whether that's a few months or a longer stretch. We'll talk through where things stand on the discovery call.

Do you prepare taxes or give tax advice?

No. Matherson Bookkeeping does not prepare taxes or provide tax advice. I keep your books accurate and organized so your tax professional has what they need. For tax questions, please work with a CPA or licensed tax preparer.

What does it cost?

Pricing depends on the scope of your books and the support you need. After a discovery call where we look at your situation together, I'll propose straightforward options, no surprise invoices.

What software do you work with?

I'm a certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor, so QuickBooks Online is where I do most of my work. If you're on something else or not sure what you need, bring it up on the discovery call and we'll figure out the best path together.

How do we get started?

It starts with a short discovery call. We talk through your business, your books, and where you'd like help. From there I propose straightforward options, and you decide what makes sense. There's no obligation.

Still have a question?

Send a note through the contact form or book a discovery call. I'm happy to answer whatever is on your mind before you decide anything.
