General Bookkeeping Services
Needed to stay IRS-compliant
A single mistake in your books can lead to overstating your income – this can lead to unnecessarily higher taxes come tax time. On the flip side, understating your income (or overstating expenses) can lead to scrutiny from the IRS. Either way, this is something to avoid.
Your best remedy from trouble down the line is prevention – proper recording of transactions and consistent monthly reconciliations can help mitigate issues.
The problem is that the work is time-consuming and the influx of tasks never seems to go away. Let me help you save time and avoid stress.
Messy books? Being audited?
Get a books Cleanup or Catch-up
Messy books may lead you to more trouble than they’re worth if they’re not addressed in a timely manner – this is also true for past months.
Whether you are acting preemptively to avoid or are preparing for an upcoming audit, you will need to make sure that every month in your books to date is squeaky clean by having your monthly accounts reconciled and transactions backed up by receipts.
If you feel like you completely lost control of your books, don’t stress – mistakes happen and we can fix them together. It’s best to correct errors as a preventive measure – as a reactive measure this can become more costly.
Confused about financial statements?
Financial statement preparation
Allow me to prep and walk you through your financial statements.
Whether it’s your Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss or Statement of Cash Flows, let me help you understand them and demystify them. With clean and up-to-date books, these statements can yield insightful data to savvy business owners for running a healthy business or scaling up.

About this bookkeeper
Giorgio Renna
Nice to meet you! I’m a Los Angeles-based bookkeeper (and animator). I pride myself on being professional, empathetic and approachable.
I’m still an active member in the animation community, having worked on some shows you may have seen or heard of. You may think that an artist might not be the most qualified person to deal with numbers but let me assure you – I have experience as a coder and have regularly worked in complicated software to meet tight deadlines. My passion for technical work is not in spite of my artsy side – it is a compliment to it.
If your books are feeling out of control, and you would like a sympathetic and friendly bookkeeper to give you a hand, let me be the one to help you get a handle back on your business and time.
