Offshore bookkeepers who already know e-commerce books

Why e-commerce clients break generalist bookkeepers

A Shopify or Amazon payout isn't revenue — it's a batch. Mapping it to revenue, fees, refunds, shipping, and reserves by hand is how e-commerce books go wrong, and a generalist bookkeeper doing it by hand every month is how your reviewer ends up redoing the close. A2X and Webgility split the batch correctly; a bookkeeper who knows those tools makes sure the split matches reality. That's the difference between a client who trusts their margin number and one who doesn't.

Inventory and COGS that match the shelf

If the inventory asset in QuickBooks doesn't match what's in ShipBob or FBA, the client's margin is fiction and their tax return is wrong. Our e-commerce bookkeepers reconcile inventory to the fulfillment system, post COGS correctly, and flag shrinkage — so the per-channel margin you hand the client is a number they can make decisions on, not a guess.

Sales tax nexus without the surprises

Every new sales channel can create a new nexus. Our bookkeepers track nexus by state, flag registration thresholds, and work with Avalara or your client's CPA so the client is collecting and remitting where they should be — not getting a surprise assessment three years later that becomes your problem to explain.
