Should You Hire a Virtual Bookkeeper? Here’s What to Consider.

When I see businesses hiring in-house bookkeepers, I get it. It feels familiar. You’re used to having someone at a desk, down the hall, ready to handle your numbers.

But the truth is, hiring an in-house bookkeeper might not be the best use of your money, time, or energy. Virtaual bookkeeping doesn’t just cut costs—it cuts through unnecessary complexity. It lets you focus on running your business while I focus on giving you clear, accurate financials every month.

According to Salary.com, an in-house full-time bookkeeper's median annual wage equals about $3,799 per month. Add in taxes, benefits, software, and hardware and you’ll spend about $5,722 per month. Your investment in our partnership will be nowhere near this amount:

*Based on 10/hrs week labor

Here’s how hiring a virtual bookkeeper stacks up against an in-house bookkeeper:

Here’s what that really means for you:

1. More savings:
   You’re not paying for extra overhead. You’re paying for results.
2. Less stress:
   ‍I’ll handle the day-to-day bookkeeping so you can focus on running your business.
3. More focus:
   No time spent managing others, so you can focus on the things that really matter—growing your business, serving your clients, and achieving your goals.

A lot of business owners worry about working with a virtual bookkeeper. It’s different, I get that. But think about how much of your business is already handled virtually—your meetings, your marketing, maybe even your sales. Bookkeeping doesn’t need to be any different.

The way businesses operate is changing. Bookkeeping should too.
