Working With Us
Most Vancouver Businesses Come to Us With the Same Problem
Somewhere along the way, business and personal expenses started running through the same card, and now nobody can pull a clean number without digging through everything by hand.
That mix costs you twice:
- at tax time, personal charges sitting inside business expenses are exactly what draw a closer look from the CRA, and
- every month before that, your profit number is wrong.
We're in your books every week, not just once a month, so a personal charge gets flagged while it's one transaction, not a year's worth to untangle later.
Our clients tend to think of us as their accounting team.
Our Services
What Our Bookkeeping Service Covers
Every month, we handle the full cycle of your bookkeeping so nothing falls through the cracks:
Weekly Data Input
We input transactions weekly, not once a month, so your numbers stay close to real-time instead of showing up as a stale snapshot at month-end.
Transaction Categorization
Every transaction is recorded and categorized correctly so your numbers are always accurate when you need them.
Bank and Credit Card Reconciliations
All accounts reconciled every month so nothing slips through the cracks.
Accounts Payable and Receivable
We track & reconcile what you owe and what you are owed so your cash flow picture is always complete.
Vendor and Supplier Payments
On higher-tier packages, we process your weekly supplier payments directly through Plooto or your online banking portal, so paying vendors is one less thing on your plate.
GST/HST, PST, EHT, and WSBC Filings
Filed accurately and on time as required so you stay fully CRA compliant with the CRA & Provincial authorities without thinking about it.
Payroll Processing
We run payroll for salaried and hourly staff and keep it compliant.
If you do not already have payroll set up, we use QuickBooks Payroll or we bring in a third-party provider, and manage the whole process so there is no added stress on your end.
Monthly Financial Reporting
Profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow statement, included on our higher-tier packages so you know exactly where your business stands.
Software Included
QuickBooks Online and Hubdoc are included in every package at no extra cost.
Plooto and Payroll software are available for an additional fee if you need them.
Who It Is For
Who We Work With
We work with Vancouver business owners who are serious about their finances and ready for a partner who is too.
$500K+ in annual revenue.
At this size, guesswork is not an option. Books need to be accurate and current, not something reviewed twice a year.
Outgrown DIY bookkeeping.
The business has grown past what one person can track on the side while running everything else.
Wants more than data entry.
Someone who looks at the numbers every month and can actually explain what they mean.
Going through a major change.
Acquiring a business, or looking to invest in more staff/equipment; these are exactly the moments accurate books stop being optional.

What Our Clients Say
Ventiga Client, Vancouver
We went to Ventiga as a small company. We didn't realize how much we were NOT doing in our bookkeeping. With their support we have been able to get so many things in order. They were extremely simple to set up. Knowing that our back end is taken care of takes so much emotional pressure off our plate.
Amanda Robinson
Working with Alfraz and Ventiga is the first time I have truly felt like someone is looking out for my best interests with a deep understanding of my finances. Every conversation is positive, reassuring, and proactive."
Ventiga Client, Vancouver
Have nothing but great things to say. They go above and beyond to take care of all our messy accounting we throw at them. They have organized and refined our taxes and everything related. Can't thank them enough.
Sarah Reece-Robertson
We went to Ventiga as a small company. We didn't realize how much we were NOT doing in our book keeping. With their support we have been able to get so many things in order. They were extremely simple to set up. We are not tech people, and or book keepers so their simple and streamlined systems really took so much out of my hands. Knowing that our back end is taken care of takes so much emotional pressure off our plate.
FAQs
Common Questions About Bookkeeping Services in Vancouver
What's the first thing you do when a new client's books are a mess?
Every new client fills out a short intake form covering how far behind the books are, how many accounts and payment processors are involved, and where things stand. We get access to your QuickBooks file and review the profit and loss, balance sheet, reconciliation dates, and anything sitting in Uncategorized. That tells us how big the job is, and sometimes it's more cost effective to start fresh with a new file than fix the old one. We also pull your prior tax returns and CRA account access to make sure what's in QuickBooks matches what was actually reported, then start requesting statements and receipts to get everything reconciled.
Is your pricing hourly, or a flat monthly fee?
We work on flat monthly packages, not hourly billing. If you ever need something outside your package, like a one-off project or extra advisory time, that's billed separately, but your core monthly bookkeeping is a fixed fee so you always know what to expect.
What software will I need to use day-to-day?
You'll have access to QuickBooks, Hubdoc for receipts and invoices, and a SharePoint folder set up for your business, but most clients don't log into any of these every day. We handle the day-to-day, and you'll get automated email reminders for key actions like month-end and upcoming tax dates, so nothing depends on you checking a dashboard.
Is there any type of business you don't work with?
The one industry we don't take on is food and beverage. Beyond that, we work best with founder-run and owner-operated businesses where the owner is responsive and open to changing a process that isn't working.
How do I actually reach someone, and who am I talking to?
You'll have a dedicated bookkeeper from day one, so you always know who you're dealing with. You can also reach our controller, Christina, or Maria, our EA, directly, and our senior management stays involved and reviews the work being done. Most day-to-day communication happens by text or email rather than a ticketing system, and if anything is urgent, you can call the firm directly.
What happens to my books and data if I ever leave Ventiga?
You keep the QuickBooks Online file, with all its history, chart of accounts, templates, and reports intact. Hubdoc works the same way.
If you decide to leave, the QBO file transfers to you and you can keep using it, hand it to another provider, or bring it in-house.
Nothing about your books depends on staying with us.
