Virtual bookkeepers leverage cloud computing to work on your books no matter where the they are located. Most of this is done through online accounting software like QuickBooks® Online. In addition, virtual bookkeepers often leverage multiple cloud based subscription based business software and apps, and are specialists in software and app integrations.
This type of bookkeeping started in the early 2000's - before remote work was trendy. And, it is quickly becoming a standard across small and medium sized organizations. With the cost of a in house bookkeeping employee running around $72K a year (benefits and insurance included),. outsourcing bookkeeping to a remote bookkeeper for $3k-$25K is a large cost savings to an organization's bottom line. Not to mention the savings on accounting and business application subscription fees. |
