Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our remote bookkeeping services.

What does a bookkeeper do for a small business?

A bookkeeper records and categorizes your income and expenses, reconciles your bank and credit card accounts, manages accounts payable, and produces financial reports so you always know where your business stands. Adams Accounting Solutions handles all of this for you remotely each month.

Do you work with businesses outside of Mississippi?

Yes. While Adams Accounting Solutions is based in Ellisville, Mississippi, we work remotely with small businesses across the United States. Your books are managed securely online, so location is never a barrier.

What accounting software do you use?

We specialize in QuickBooks Online — including new setup, onboarding, cleanup, and ongoing monthly bookkeeping. If you are not on QuickBooks yet, we will help you get set up correctly from the start.

What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?

Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording and organizing of your financial transactions; accounting uses those records for tax preparation, analysis, and strategy. We keep your books accurate and CPA-ready so tax season is stress-free.
