A message from Sue McLaughlin, Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor® and founder of MBS.
What sets MBS apart from other independent bookkeeping services? I like to think it’s my strong personal interest in every client’s success. As your bookkeeper, I want to hand you the keys to the kingdom — the financial know-how to reach your goals.
So when MBS prepares your financial reports, we can talk about what those numbers really mean. What are you spending too much on? Too little? What kind of cash flow can you expect this month? Are your prices covering your costs? How much should you budget for taxes? What questions should you ask your CPA?
MBS management of your financials allows you to focus on your business goals and make important decisions that impact your bottom line. As we work together, I hope that you’ll grow to regard us as a silent partner in your success.
To learn how an independent bookkeeper can save your business time and money, call 703.823.3435 for a free consultation.

Full-Service Bookkeeping
MBS maintains accurate and up-to-date financial records, processes tax filings and prepares the statements you require. We’ll also help you analyze trends, manage cash flow and track progress toward your goals.
QuickBooks® Setup
If you’ve outgrown spreadsheets — or if your only accounting system is a folder of loose receipts — QuickBooks accounting software can help you take charge of your financials. MBS sets up your company profile, imports account and transaction data and calculates your opening balance.
Periodic Reviews
If you keep your own books, MBS can review them to ensure completeness and accuracy and correct discrepancies. Avoid tax-time hassles, work more effectively with your CPA and approach lenders with confidence.
Payroll Management
Payroll is one of the most complicated — and crucial — accounting tasks your small business faces. Outsourcing payroll to MBS ensures you’ll meet your obligations to employees and the government, 100%, every pay period.

We appreciate her patience, clarity and expertise in working with adult students who typically don't have financial or accounting backgrounds. Sue goes above and beyond to really connect with each person, and always offers to work with them one-on-one before and after class. We heartily recommend her!"

“Sue has saved me from myself! For the last two years she has helped me get my QuickBooks in order to make gathering info for taxes a much less burdensome process. And after what she taught me the first year, the second year was so much easier. She has also helped me anticipate and streamline bookkeeping methods for a new line of business that had left me baffled. I highly recommend Sue McLaughlin.”
