Retail Bookkeeping

Running a retail business means juggling a lot—inventory, vendors, staff, customer returns, sales tax, and about a million receipts.

If your books aren’t in order, it’s easy to lose track of your margins, miss key trends, or overpay on taxes.

That’s why we offer Retail Bookkeeping built just for stores like yours. Whether you run a boutique, online shop, or multi-location store, we’ll help you stay organized and profitable.

Retail Is Its Own Beast

Retail bookkeeping is different from other types of businesses. You’ve got:

• Daily sales across multiple channels

• Inventory moving in and out

• Vendor invoices and restocks

• Returns and refunds to track

• Sales tax by city or state

• Seasonal spikes and dips

We help you make sense of it all. Your numbers won’t just be clean—they’ll actually mean something.

What We Do

We take care of all the moving parts so your books stay solid, month after month:

• Record daily and weekly sales

• Track inventory purchases and cost of goods sold (COGS)

• Reconcile point-of-sale (POS) system reports with bank deposits

• Organize expenses and vendor payments

• Track refunds and returns accurately

• Prepare monthly financial reports (P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow)

• Handle sales tax filing and compliance

• Support payroll and contractor payments if needed

You’ll have clear reports that show how your shop is really doing—so you’re not just guessing based on what’s in the register.

Stop Wondering Where the Money Went

Retail businesses can look busy on the outside and still lose money behind the scenes. We help you spot the leaks, stay on budget, and make smart choices about inventory, pricing, and hiring.

We had a client in Memphis who realized, after just two months of clean reports, that one vendor was charging way more than agreed. They renegotiated—and saved thousands.

Works With Your Tools

We connect with whatever systems you already use:

• Shopify, Square, Clover, Lightspeed, etc.
