We use QuickBooks Online as our preferred bookkeeping platform. If you're currently using another system—or still managing your books manually—we'll guide you through a smooth transition to QuickBooks Online. Our team handles the setup, migration, and support so you can confidently manage your finances with a secure, cloud-based solution.
Yes. Income tax preparation is available for our existing bookkeeping and advisory clients, who receive priority scheduling during tax season. If we're unable to prepare your return, we'll connect you with a trusted tax professional and ensure your financial records are organized, accurate, and ready for a seamless filing process.
All of our services at HWA are customized to meet the specific needs of each client, and so is our pricing. Costs are determined by the scope of work we agree upon together, and we operate on a time and expense basis rather than a flat rate or subscription model. This approach ensures that our team can dedicate the time needed to deliver high-quality, accurate accounting work. If you have a specific budget in mind, we are happy to work with you to tailor the scope of services as much as possible to stay within your budget while still meeting your business’s needs. A typical HWA client spends between 1-3% of annual revenues on our services.
THE HWA DIFFERENCE
Accounting support all year long not just in April.
Not once a year with a bill and a shrug. We're proactive, catching problems before they become expensive ones.
Small business financial expertise, in plain English.
Fluent in corporate finance and plain English. We walk into a bank meeting, a lawyer's office, or an insurance audit and we don't back down.
We catch what others miss
We've recovered $10,000 for a client from a misclassified workers' comp audit. We've walked into a banker's office and gotten a line of credit approved that was previously denied. We do the damn thing.
Local roots, nationwide reach.
We live in this community. The jobs your business creates are jobs for our neighbors. Keeping good businesses in good hands keeps control where it belongs, with you.

WHY HEATHER STARTED HWA
"I spent years at a top-tier global consulting firm doing work I thought was 'finding efficiency.' I was naive. I was shipping American jobs overseas. I took a leave of absence that turned into a resignation because small business owners don't have $100k for a fancy strategist and a slick PowerPoint. They need a no-nonsense plan. They need someone who can walk into a bank and defend their numbers. Someone who will fight for them the way the big guys fight for their Fortune 100 clients. I share that knowledge generously. And I am never, ever going anywhere."
