PRESS RELEASE:
McLean, VA - (Jun-26-2008)
Bookkeeping Express Plans to Franchise Nationwide Three entrepreneurs in McLean, Virginia, have purchased Bookkeeping Express, a national provider of bookkeeping services, and plan a major expansion, which includes launching a national franchising system in June.
“In a business world where payroll is dominated by national companies like Paychex and tax preparation is synonymous with H & R Block, we see Bookkeeping Express becoming the recognized provider for business bookkeeping services,” says CEO Greg Jones. “Bookkeeping Express will provide businesses throughout the nation a reliable, affordable source for excellent bookkeeping services.” “Bookkeeping Express plans on “Revolutionizing Bookkeeping in America.”
“We will focus on in-house financials, operating as an authorized QuickBooks affiliate,” said Jones. “We will charge by the transaction so that our customers can have a complete understanding of what work has been completed and at what price.”
Bookkeeping Express offers “full service” bookkeeping services for businesses. Our goal is to help business owners succeed by simply, effectively, and honestly performing bookkeeping services. “If a business owner understands their business, they have a better chance of success.” Bookkeeping Express, by thorough bookkeeping, comprehensive reports, and special products like easy to understand “dashboards,” help business owners succeed. “We truly strive to be “The Growth Business Partner” of our bookkeeping clients.”
Services offered by Bookkeeping Express include the following:
- Setting up Chart of Accounts and General Ledger
- Monthly data entry
- Processing and managing Accounts Payable and Account Receivable
- Producing regular monthly reports
- Tax reporting
Bookkeeping Express employs the services of Certified Bookkeepers. “This is unique because often times,” explains COO Robert Stocker, “when you hire a bookkeeper, you have no idea of their training, certification or integrity.” “Every Bookkeeping Express bookkeeper will undergo a thorough training program, will be certified, will be insured, and will have oversight of their bookkeeping activities through Bookkeeping Express.”
The new owners of Bookkeeping Express include Jones, an entrepreneur in the franchising field, who also owns the development rights for Five Guys Burgers & Fries in Central Florida; Merritt Green, the Founder and Managing Partner of General Counsel, P.C.; and Bob Stocker, a management consultant. The group purchased the rights to Bookkeeping Express in 2007 and moved its headquarters to McLean. They expect to start selling franchises by June 1, 2008.
Currently, Bookkeeping Express is offering bookkeeping services through locations in McLean and Reston, Virginia. Additional locations in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. are planned to be opened shortly.
