Hire the Best Sage 50 Accounting Specialists
in the United States
Erie, Pennsylvania
Most businesses contact me when their accounting numbers stop making sense. The bank will not reconcile, payroll reports do not match the books, inventory and COGS are wrong, or financial statements cannot be trusted. Often the books appear complete, but the underlying accounting structure is broken. This is where most of my work begins. I specialize in stepping into accounting systems that have become messy, inconsistent, or unreliable and rebuilding them into accurate financial records that business owners can rely on. My work often involves identifying where the breakdown occurred, correcting the accounting structure, and restoring financial reporting that management can actually use. I have more than 15 years of hands-on accounting experience across industries including construction, manufacturing, e-commerce, healthcare, and technology startups. I operate Bloss Financial Services as a one-person accounting practice, which means clients work directly with the accountant doing the work. Nothing is outsourced and every engagement receives direct attention from start to finish. Services • Bookkeeping cleanup (monthly or multi-year) • Accounting system repairs in QuickBooks, Sage, and Xero • Bank and credit card reconciliation cleanup • Financial statement reconstruction when records do not tie out • Inventory, COGS, and job costing structure • Payroll reconciliation and payroll tax compliance corrections • Controller-level financial reporting and oversight Past Results • Rebuilt two years of Sage accounting records for a metal foundry, including intercompany cleanup and corrected financial reporting. • Corrected Shopify, A2X, and Xero mapping issues for an e-commerce fashion brand and implemented proper COGS tracking. • Diagnosed and corrected multi-state payroll tax and business registration issues for an e-commerce company, closing unnecessary state accounts and restoring compliant payroll reporting. • Established job costing system for an excavation company, enabling accurate tracking of labor, materials, and equipment costs by project. • Fully reconstructed the general ledger for a mental health clinic after offshore bookkeeping errors created unreliable financial statements. • Built investor-ready financial statements (Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) for a fintech startup using raw transactional data. • Created an automated cash flow forecasting calendar for an e-commerce retail business to project revenue, inventory purchases, and operating expenses. Accounting Diagnostic Review Many clients are not sure what is actually wrong with their accounting system. Before beginning a large cleanup, I often start with a diagnostic review of the books. During this review I examine the accounting file, reconciliation history, financial statements, and supporting reports to identify where problems are occurring. The result is a written summary outlining: • reconciliation issues • incorrect chart of accounts structure • payroll or tax reporting discrepancies • inventory and COGS problems • financial statement inconsistencies • recommended steps required to correct the books This allows business owners to clearly understand what needs to be fixed before investing in a full cleanup project. About My Practice Bloss Financial Services is intentionally structured as a one-accountant practice. Clients work directly with the person analyzing the books, diagnosing the problems, and implementing the solutions. This approach avoids the common situation where accounting work is delegated through layers of staff and ensures that complex financial issues receive experienced attention. Engagement Options I work with clients in several ways: • One-time accounting cleanup and diagnostics • Financial statement reconstruction • Catch-up bookkeeping and reconciliation repair • Ongoing remote accounting support If your books do not reconcile, your financial statements do not match reality, or previous bookkeeping created confusion, I can help identify the problem and fix it.
