    What is the difference between accounting and bookkeeping services?
    Bookkeeping is primarily concerned with recording financial transactions and maintaining financial records. Accounting, on the other hand, involves interpreting, classifying, analyzing, summarizing, and reporting financial data to make informed business decisions.
    What service can be performed by an accountant?
    Accountants provide a broader range of services compared to bookkeepers. They can prepare and analyze financial statements, provide tax planning and preparation services, conduct audits, offer financial advice, and help with strategic financial decisions.
    How much should I pay for a good accountant?
    The cost of an accountant can vary significantly based on factors like their experience, location, and the complexity of services needed. In general, fees can range from $150 to $400 per hour for more specialized services, though some accountants may also charge a flat fee for specific tasks like tax preparation.

    Client Reviews

    Financial Connections has earned a highly respected reputation for its comprehensive business services, ranging from Accounting Services to Extensive Financial Balancing and Consulting. We have built our reputation by responding promptly to our clients’ needs and delivering high-quality professional services.


    Cassell Consulting has been working with Financial Connections for two years. When our CPA firm discontinued its bookkeeping services, we were fortunate that it recommended Renea and Wendy to us. From the start it’s been a good fit. Two things we especially appreciate are online access to our books at any time and Financial Connection’s flexible pricing structure. We only pay for the services we need.

    Wendy and Renea continually express their expertise, which allows us to focus our attention on the end products of our business. They have always been available on short notice to fulfill a request, which is greatly appreciated during periods of high volume. Wendy has an excellent ability to organize and multi-task, and Renea has extensive knowledge of the State and Federal tax systems….

    Renea and Wendy helped me start up my business 2 years ago. I am happy to say that their services have proved to be invaluable the whole way through. From handling my bookkeeping to my state and federal taxes they’ve done it all which has helped me focus on my business and clients…so I can make money. Thanks for all your help guys, I’m happy to recommend you to others every chance I get.
