Why "Pono"
Books done properly. Books done right.
Pono means rightness, balance, and doing things properly — with care and integrity. That's the standard we hold your books to. No jargon, no surprises, no "we'll get to it." Just quiet correctness, every month.
Pricing & Getting Started
Straightforward monthly pricing
Monthly bookkeeping starts at $450 per month.
Your final fixed fee is based on transaction volume, account count, payroll activity, GET filing frequency, and overall complexity. We review the books first, explain exactly what is included, and give you one monthly price before work begins.
Catch-up, cleanup, and onboarding work are scoped and priced separately.
Getting started is simple

We review the books securely
We identify cleanup needs, complexity, and any required QuickBooks Online conversion, then send a fixed proposal — onboarding work, monthly fee, responsibilities, and your closing calendar, in writing.
The monthly rhythm begins
We organize the handoff — portal, connections, workflows — and once the books are current, we close, review, and deliver on the agreed schedule.
