Monthly Bookkeeping Services in Seattle
Flat monthly rate, month to month, no contract. If it stops being worth it, you give us 30 days and take a complete set of books with you.
- Usually under 30 minutes of your time a month
- The same dedicated bookkeeper every month
- A short written note on what moved and why
The local mix is unusually varied — software consultancies billing by project, aerospace supply businesses, maritime operators working to seasonal cycles, and food and coffee businesses. A consultancy and a fishing operation need such different things from a monthly close that a single template serves neither.
What our service covers in Seattle
Everything below is part of the engagement — no surprise add-ons.
Cash flow snapshot
A short view of what came in, what went out and what is committed, so a tight month is visible before it becomes a problem.
Software cost review
Subscriptions accumulate quietly. We surface what is being charged and let you decide what is still earning its place.
Bank feed management
Feeds connected read-only and the rules reviewed as they age, because a rule written a year ago quietly miscodes for months once a supplier changes.
Account reconciliation
Bank accounts, credit cards, PayPal, Stripe and Square matched line by line to the statement every month.
Chart of accounts setup
Built around how the business actually earns and spends, rather than the software default, so the reports answer questions you care about.
What happens after you get in touch
Only the first step needs anything from you.
Tell us where things stand
A 20-minute call covering your transaction volume, how many accounts are in play and how far behind (if at all) things are. You get a flat monthly rate on that call.
We take over the file
Read-only feeds get connected, the chart of accounts is built or cleaned up, and we agree what belongs in your monthly pack. Roughly a week end to end.
It just runs
Transactions are categorized as they arrive, accounts reconcile monthly, and your reports land by the 10th. When something needs a decision, your bookkeeper calls you.
Why Seattle businesses choose Feather Accounting
This is a good fit if…
- Your current bookkeeper changes every few months
- You would rather forward a receipt than learn the software
- You want a predictable monthly cost rather than an hourly bill
- You would like to stop thinking about the books entirely
Different rhythms, different closes
A consultancy needs costs matched to engagements, because the only question that matters is which projects paid once the time spent is counted.
A seasonal operator needs the opposite: a view that spans the cycle, since any single month is either preparation or harvest and neither means much alone. Reported month by month against a flat budget, a good year can look like a series of alarming ones.
We set the reporting to the rhythm the business actually runs on. The underlying close discipline does not change; what gets reported does.
Questions about this service
Anything we have not covered, ask on the call — it is free and there is no follow-up sequence.
One named bookkeeper owns your file month to month, with a second person reviewing before anything reaches you. You are not routed through a queue.
