    At Corneliuson & Associates, a common question we hear is, “Your services sound expensive. Can we afford you?” It’s a fair question, especially when running a business means carefully considering every dollar spent. Let us break down how our pricing works and why it’s structured to provide value to businesses like yours.

    Balancing Value and Affordability

    We’ll be upfront: we’re not the least expensive accounting firm out there, but we’re far from the most expensive. For businesses that are incorporated and generate more than $200,000 in annual revenue with steady or growing income, we’re confident that the benefits of our accounting services far outweigh the costs.

    Our goal is simple: to help you save more, earn more, and make better decisions. That’s why we work closely with you to identify opportunities to save on taxes, reduce unnecessary expenses, and uncover ways to increase your revenue.

    A Quick Consultation, A Big Difference

    When you sit down with us for an initial consultation–about 15 minutes– we can provide a clear overview of how our accounting services work, what they’ll cost, and how they’ll benefit your business. We’ll ask questions to understand your goals, challenges, and priorities. From there, we’ll recommend services that align with your objectives, whether it’s improving cash flow, preparing for tax season, or setting up a financial plan for growth.

    This no-pressure consultation is designed to give you the information you need to make an informed decision. If we’re a good fit, we’ll develop a detailed proposal that outlines the scope of our work and the associated fees.

    Fixed Fees: No Surprises, Just Clarity

    One of the most frustrating things for business owners is unpredictable billing. Traditional accounting firms often bill by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $250 for meetings, phone calls, and other services. This not only creates uncertainty but also discourages clients from reaching out when they need advice. 

    At Corneliuson & Associates, we do things differently. Our fees are fixed, meaning you’ll know your total annual cost upfront. We break that cost into 12 equal monthly payments to make budgeting straightforward and stress-free. And here’s the best part: there are no surprise charges. Whether you need extra meetings, phone consultations, or additional support, it’s all included in your agreed-upon fee. This approach gives you the freedom to reach out whenever you need us without worrying about unexpected costs. This ensures that you’re always informed and prepared to make the best decisions for your business.

    More Than Just an Accountant

    We’re not just here to crunch numbers. Our role goes beyond tax preparation and bookkeeping—we’re your partners in business growth. Here’s how our accounting services provide lasting value:

    • Tax Savings: By staying on top of tax laws and regulations, we find ways to minimize your tax liability and keep more money in your pocket.
    • Cost Management: We identify areas where you can reduce unnecessary expenses without sacrificing quality or efficiency.
    • Revenue Growth: Through financial analysis and strategic advice, we help you uncover opportunities to grow your business and increase profitability.
