Your back office, handled.
Transparent pricing. Certified bookkeepers. Clean, tax-ready books every month — so you can spend your time actually running the business.
If your work pays the bills, your books shouldn't take the weekends.
Ardent & Aces was built for the people who are busy doing the work. Dentists between patients. Plumbers between jobs. Shop owners between deliveries. We handle the books — the full books, to a professional standard — so you don't have to.
Not a spreadsheet. A proper back office.
Every month, on time, without you chasing it.
Every expense and deposit sorted correctly.
You see exactly what was earned and spent.
You understand how the business is actually doing.
You know what you own and what you owe.
When tax season hits, your CPA thanks you (and so does your wallet).
A real person you can message with questions, not a ticket queue.
Fixed-fee. Tailored to your business.
Every business is different, so the first thing we do is listen. A 30-minute discovery call lets us understand exactly what your books need — then we quote a single, fixed monthly fee for that exact scope. No hourly gymnastics. No surprise add-ons. No tiers to outgrow.
Set on a 30-minute discovery call, locked once it's set, and doesn't move unless your business materially changes.
Every business is different, so we don't quote off a sticker. We listen first, scope your exact needs, then put a single number on it.
Monthly bookkeeping, reconciliations, P&L, balance sheet, dedicated bookkeeper, and any add-ons you need — priced together up front.
Engagements are month-to-month. The decision to stay should be earned by the work — not enforced by a clause.
Software: We work in QuickBooks Online, Xero, Wave, and Zoho Books. As part of scoping we advise on the right stack for your business — no forced migrations.
Three steps. About an hour of your time. Then it just runs.
Quick discovery call (30 minutes).
Tell us what you do, what software you use (or don't), and what's been slipping. We'll tell you which tier fits and quote you on the spot.
Onboarding (1 week).
We set up your books, get secure access to your bank feeds, clean up anything that's behind, and align on how you like your reports.
Monthly rhythm.
By the 5th business day of every month, your books are closed. Reports in your inbox. A bookkeeper on call for questions.
Premium-caliber bookkeeping. Built for real businesses.
Certified bookkeepers. Not a software bot.
Every A&A bookkeeper is professionally qualified (CIMA, ACCA, or CA). Our wider team carries over 30 years of combined experience, drawn from top-tier global firms.
Fixed monthly pricing.
One number. Every month. The same. Budget it, forget it.
Answers in hours, not days.
Message your bookkeeper directly. Questions answered within the business day — not routed through three layers of ticketing.
Premium standards, regardless of your size.
We hold every client to the same professional standard, whether you're a $200K/year solo practice or a $5M multi-location operation. The quality doesn't flex with the fee.
Common questions from business owners.
I'm already behind on my books. Can you catch me up?+
Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is a standard service — we'll quote it separately from your monthly fee as a one-time project, then roll you into ongoing monthly service.
Do I have to buy expensive software?+
Only if your business actually needs it. We work in QuickBooks Online, Xero, Wave, and Zoho Books — we'll help you choose between free and paid platforms based on your transaction volume and reporting needs. Software cost is part of what we discuss on the discovery call so the total fits your business.
Is my data safe? You're based overseas.+
Absolutely. Every engagement includes signed confidentiality agreements, encrypted file exchange, MFA-protected software access, and strict staff-level access controls. We handle books for CPAs, real estate firms, and media businesses that trust us with highly sensitive financial data.
Will I actually talk to a real person?+
Yes — one dedicated bookkeeper, not a rotating pool. You'll have their direct contact.
What if my business is seasonal?+
Our fixed fee smooths your cost through busy and slow seasons. Some months we do more work, some months less — your price stays the same.
Can my CPA work with you?+
Yes, and many of our clients have us deliver the books directly to their CPA for tax prep. Your CPA keeps their role; we just make their life easier at tax time.
What happens if I don't like the service?+
Monthly engagements are exactly that — monthly. No long-term contracts. If we're not a fit, you can end the engagement at any billing cycle.
Stop losing weekends to bookkeeping.
30 minutes on the phone is enough for us to understand your business, quote you a fixed monthly fee, and answer every question you have. No obligation. No upsells.
