Two ledgers, two lives

Pick the month you'd rather have

The shoebox method

  • Sunday nights guessing which charge was gas and which was supplies.
  • Payroll math on scratch paper, hoping the taxes come out right.
  • A frantic scramble every April with no idea where you stand.
  • Questions from your accountant you can't answer.

On the books with Verdigris

  • Every account reconciled to the penny by the 10th of each month.
  • Full-cycle payroll run and filed — W-2 team or 1099 crew, no sweat.
  • Quarterly reports in plain English, so you know your real margin.
  • One person in Slidell who knows your books cold.

How it runs

You hand it over once. It keeps running.

No onboarding marathon, no software you have to learn. Start where you are — we pick up the trail and keep it clean from there.

  1. 01

    Hand off the shoebox

    Send us read-only bank access, your payroll roster, and last year's return. We build your chart of accounts around how you actually work.

  2. 02

    We reconcile every account

    Each transaction lands in the right column. Bank, credit card, loans — matched and tied out so nothing drifts.

  3. 03

    Payroll runs like clockwork

    Hours in, checks out, taxes filed on schedule. Your people get paid on time and the agencies get their cut without you chasing deadlines.

  4. 04

    Quarterly numbers you read

    A short, plain-language report every quarter: where the money went, what you kept, and the one thing to watch next.

What you get

Every transaction lands in the right column — so when tax season hits, you're already finished.

— the whole job, in one sentence
  • 01

    Monthly bookkeeping

    Categorized, cleaned, and closed every month — not a year-end panic dump.

    Bank & card reconciliations

    Every account tied out to the statement. If a penny's off, we find it.

  • 03

    Full-cycle payroll

    Run, direct-deposit, and file — W-2 employees and 1099 contractors alike.

  • 04

    Payroll tax filings

    Federal, state, and local returns submitted on time, every period.

  • 05

    Quarterly reporting

    P&L, balance sheet, and cash position — read in five minutes.

    Year-end 1099 prep

    Contractor forms gathered and filed so January is boring.

12

Closed books, start to finish

Twelve monthly closes a year. Not one skipped.

A real close every single month — reconciled, reviewed, and ready. By December you've already got twelve clean months behind you and nothing to catch up on.

Who's keeping your books

Local, steady, and in your corner

The Verdigris story

Verdigris Ledger grew up around kitchen tables and job-site trucks in Slidell — the places small businesses really run from. The name is a nod to the green patina that forms on worked copper over years of use: proof that something's been handled, well, for a long time. That's the goal for your books — reconciled so often and so carefully that nothing ever corrodes into a year-end mess. You'll talk to a real person who recognizes your vendors, remembers your pay schedule, and answers before the deadline, not after.
