Real captions from the kit

Sample Instagram captions for bookkeepers and tax preparers

Three posts from the second week of January, taken from the calendar and shortened where they run long. Words in [BRACKETS] are placeholders you fill in once.

Tuesday · Tax Prep Tuesday

Watch the mailbox this month

It's tax form season, and the envelopes don't always look important.

Some forms arrive by mail. Some only show up as a download in an online account you haven't logged into since last spring. Some come late, and a few come twice because someone issued a correction.

Here's what to keep an eye out for: 1. Wage statements from every employer 2. Contractor and freelance income forms 3. Interest, dividend and brokerage statements 4. Statements for retirement, health savings or student loans

Share this with someone who tosses envelopes without opening them.

Behind on your books? Start here.

If the thought of last year's books makes your stomach drop, you're not behind. You're just early for a clean-up.

Our catch-up and clean-up service is for the business owner who: 1. Hasn't reconciled in months (or ever) 2. Has a mystery pile in uncategorized 3. Mixed business and personal spending 4. Needs clean numbers before tax time

DM "UNTANGLE" to get our clean-up intake questions.

Thursday · Ledger 101 Thursday

Word of the week: reconcile

Reconcile. You've heard it over and over. Here's what it actually means.

Reconciling is checking your books against an outside source, usually your bank or card statement, and making sure every transaction matches. Same amount, same date range, nothing missing, nothing extra.

Why it matters: your accounting software can import transactions, but it can't tell you whether a deposit got recorded twice or a refund never came through. Reconciling catches that.

Save this for the next time someone says "reconcile" and you nod along.
