Seattle's small-business economy leans heavily on two groups: tech startups and founders, and the sellers building businesses on top of Amazon's marketplace — both needing books that keep up with fast-moving, often irregular revenue. Our bookkeeping services are delivered remotely by a dedicated team and reviewed by a US-licensed CPA who is, notably, actually licensed in Washington State, so Seattle business owners get real local credentialing behind the review even though our delivery team works remotely.
Seattle's economy is shaped by two overlapping worlds: a dense tech and startup scene, and a large community of independent sellers running businesses through Amazon's marketplace (the company's home turf, though we're not affiliated with Amazon in any way). Both groups tend to outgrow spreadsheet bookkeeping fast, and both produce revenue patterns that generic bookkeeping templates handle poorly.
Runway tracking, R&D expense categorization, contractor and remote-employee payroll coordination, and investor-ready financials that hold up in due diligence.
Marketplace payout reconciliation against fees, refunds, and ad spend; accurate cost of goods sold and inventory tracking; and books that reflect true margin, not just what hit your bank account.
We're not going to claim we have some special relationship with Amazon or any Seattle tech employer — we don't, and no bookkeeping firm should imply that. What we bring is a bookkeeping process built around how e-commerce and startup revenue actually behaves: multiple income sources, deferred settlements, and expense categories a generic bookkeeper tends to lump together.
Washington has no personal state income tax on wages, which is a genuine advantage for founders and employees compared to states like California or New York. It's a big part of why Seattle attracts and retains talent. But it would be dishonest to tell you Washington has no business taxes at all — it does. The state applies a Business & Occupation (B&O) tax on gross receipts, calculated differently than an income tax, and a capital gains excise tax applies to certain high earners on investment gains above a threshold.
For an Amazon seller or a startup founder, that means the tax planning conversation in Washington isn't "how do I minimize state income tax" — there isn't one on wages — it's "am I tracking gross receipts accurately enough to handle B&O tax correctly." That's a bookkeeping problem before it's a tax-strategy problem, and it's exactly the kind of detail generic bookkeeping software doesn't flag on its own.
If you're searching for a bookkeeper in Seattle with a South Lake Union address, that's not us — we don't lease office space in South Lake Union or downtown Seattle, and we're not going to pretend a mailing address changes the quality of a bookkeeping close. What matters is that a dedicated bookkeeping team works inside your existing QuickBooks Online or Xero account every month, and Muhammad Abbas, CPA (Washington State) — genuinely licensed in this state, not just claiming familiarity with it — reviews the close before it reaches you.
Flat monthly pricing — no dollar figure guesswork, no hourly clock. Get a custom quote based on your transaction volume, sales channels, and whether catch-up work is needed first.
No — we don't have a physical office in Seattle, though our reviewing CPA, Muhammad Abbas, is licensed in Washington State. Our bookkeeping itself is delivered remotely by a dedicated team, with every close reviewed before it reaches you, so you get real oversight without paying for a Seattle office lease.
Washington has no personal state income tax on wages, which is a real advantage for owners and employees. But it's not a tax-free state for businesses: Washington applies a Business & Occupation (B&O) tax on gross receipts, and a capital gains excise tax applies to certain high earners. Accurate bookkeeping is what keeps those separate obligations manageable — we won't tell you Washington has no business taxes, because it does.
Yes. Amazon and multi-channel e-commerce bookkeeping is one of our core focuses — reconciling marketplace payouts against fees, refunds, and advertising spend, tracking cost of goods sold and inventory accurately, and keeping books clean across multiple sales channels rather than relying on a single settlement report.
