The Practice

The firm behind
your books.

Trifonov & Co is a US bookkeeping practice for trades, ecommerce, and service businesses, founded by Kristiyan N. Trifonov. You will always know who is accountable for your books, and you will always get a straight answer about them.

Background

Our founder's background is in corporate finance, through cost accounting at ExxonMobil and corporate banking assistance at CitiBank. The same rigor and integrity applied in each of those positions is the same one applied to every account this practice takes on, because inaccurate accounting is often worse than near-zero accounting. We know what your books are supposed to look like. We know exactly how and what often goes wrong in accounting, as well as how to fix it in time for closing. In short, we bring your books to the standard the most profitable corporations keep their own: no balance unreconciled, no question unexplained, and no issue postponed to the weekend post-mortem.

What We Do; What We Don't

We keep your monthly books organized and closed on a fixed schedule, whether in QuickBooks Online or Xero. We do not file your taxes. Come tax season, your CPA gets a clean set of financials; no scrambling for documents, no surprise invoices, just a smooth handoff for your tax filing.

If your books are already behind, that can be fixed. Tell us how far back, and we will get them current before the monthly work starts. You can find more details on the catch-up page.

Pricing

Before any work starts, you receive a number, in writing. All rates, unless otherwise negotiated on exception, are flat and monthly. If a month runs heavier than quoted, the invoice does not change. If multiple months during a period run heavier than initially agreed, a call is scheduled to discuss the needs of your business. The full model, including what moves the quoted figure, is public on the pricing page.

Important distinction: the first call is a discovery call - a fitness check in both directions. If we do not match, you will know exactly why. If your needs are better met by someone else, you will be referred.
