Family Bookkeeping & Annual Budgeting
Clarity for Every Chapter of Life ✨
Your family’s life is made up of chapters — school milestones, dream vacations, charitable goals, a new home, or simply a more organized future. But behind every great story is a plan.
Acrux Advisory offers family bookkeeping and annual budgeting services that turn your goals into actionable numbers. We help you separate business and household finances, track spending, prepare for tax season, and build a 12-month financial roadmap that keeps everyone on the same page. Whether you’re planning for summer camps or future college funds, clarity at home is the key to peace of mind.
What’s Included in Your Family Bookkeeping Plan 📘
Managing a household’s finances takes more than balancing a checkbook — it’s about creating clarity, reducing stress, and aligning your money with your family’s goals. Our services are designed to simplify your financial life and keep every detail organized, accurate, and ready for tax time.
📅 MONTHLY FINANCIAL REVIEWS
Review income, expenses, and savings with a monthly report designed for busy executives and families.
📈 ANNUAL FAMILY BUDGET PLANNING
We help you create a 12-month plan for education, travel, investments, lifestyle upgrades, and charitable giving — all aligned with your long-term goals. Budget service is only offered alongside active bookkeeping support. Why? Because without reconciled numbers, a budget is just wishful thinking. Pairing budgeting with bookkeeping ensures your financial plan rests on real data — the same way business strategies depend on accurate reporting.
📊 TAX-READY REPORTING
Your books stay organized and ready for your CPA or EA, reducing tax-season stress and helping you maximize deductions.
🤝 ONGOING SUPPORT & CHECK-INS
Monthly or quarterly check-ins ensure your plan evolves with life’s changes — from kids’ activities to investment opportunities.
👩🏼💻 How I Work
-
💬 Initial Consultation
A confidential conversation to understand your financial landscape—homes, investments, assets like art, aircraft, or equine interests. I’ll help you gain full visibility and peace of mind.
-
🚀 Onboarding & Setup
During onboarding, you will connect your bank and credit card accounts directly into QuickBooks Online. This ensures your credentials remain secure and under your control at all times.
I then customize your chart of accounts, categorize initial transactions, and set up workflows aligned with your lifestyle and reporting needs. Where applicable, I coordinate with your Executive Assistant and CPA to streamline the process.
-
📆 Monthly Bookkeeping
Once setup is complete, I deliver clear, categorized financials each month and include a 30-minute review session to keep you informed, aligned, and in control.
Pricing:
ONBOARDING: starting at $1,500 - one-time flat fee, based on the number of accounts and complexity of setup.
MONTHLY BOOKKEEPING SUPPORT: $600–$800/month depending on the number of accounts, transaction volume, and reporting needs.
ANNUAL FAMILY BUDGET: $900
Strategic once-a-year planning to align household and business finances. Includes a 12-month budget, tax-readiness review, and tracking for family goals like education, travel, investments, and philanthropy.
***A custom quote for onboarding and bookkeeping will be provided after our initial consultation to ensure transparency and accuracy.
