Don’t get lost in the books. Let our trained assistants handle your bookkeeping, from maintaining ledgers to verifying data and preparing financial reports.
A bookkeeping assistant can keep precise records and help you compile information for quarterly or yearly reports, giving you back time to focus on your most important work.
Save as much as 70% with a trained assistant for bookkeeping versus hiring in-house.
With a bookkeeping assistant, you save on salaries and don’t need to provide office space, equipment, or benefits.
Hire as few or as many assistants as you need for bookkeeping. Supplement your current team or assemble a whole bookkeeping operation.
When you hire an executive assistant with Magic, you have ongoing support and a dedicated account manager. If you have any questions or concerns about your assistant, your CRM is just a phone call or email away.
I've adored my assistant since the day I hired him. He is wonderful, intelligent, respectful, always on time and ahead of deadlines, pays close attention to detail, and just overall amazing!
Communication, clarity, consistency have been some of the foundational features that I’ve enjoyed in my experience with Magic. They’ve been extremely pivotal in the growth of my company.
At first, I was concerned that the distance would be an issue, but it has not been. I am fortunate to have an assistant, who is responsible, qualified and pleasant to deal with.
Your bookkeeping assistants can use any virtual tools of your choice, from cloud accounting software like QuickBooks to virtual collaboration tools like Asana, Slack, or ClickUp.
All our assistants are trained in fundamental information security practices. They’re also given access to resources for further learning, which they’re encouraged to use. And if you’d like to implement further infosec measures, such as expanded onboarding training, or the use of password managers or VPNs, our VAs are quick learners and will adapt to your process.
Our virtual assistant candidates go through a multi-step screening process to guarantee you only work with the most qualified assistants. All applicants are vetted for:
1) Experience working remotely with international clients
2) Spoken and written communication skills
3) Attention to detail and problem-solving abilities.
There are three main components to our training program: a multi-day executive assistant training course (ending with a formal assessment they must pass to complete), our library of self-paced courses, and hands-on training in a remote position.
We source top candidates from the Philippines and Latin America, two of the world’s top emerging markets.
Our assistants’ schedules are flexible: they can match your business hours, or work off-hours if you need them to. Generally, you can schedule their shift (part- or full-time) any time of day.
In general, we can find your first candidates in as little as a week. You’ll have a chance to review their profiles and resumes, and to talk to them by video call. Once you’re satisfied with them, you can have them start work. If you’re not satisfied, we’ll get you new candidates.
Note that highly specific criteria, such as experience in niche industries or with highly specialized tools, may take more time to recruit for.
You can schedule your bookkeeper’s hours according to the work you need them to do. If, for example, you primarily need them to compile monthly reports, you can schedule their hours in two weeks out of every month. Alternatively, you can have them work fewer (or no) hours on certain days of the week, if you don’t typically have any records to update on those days.
Virtual bookkeepers can compile and consolidate the information you need for taxes, financial reporting, and other industry compliance requirements. This can drastically reduce the time you spend preparing submissions. That said, virtual bookkeepers may not have the full expertise needed to complete these processes on your behalf as they are not trained accountants.
The first step is to hop on a call with our team to discuss the tasks you want to delegate to your assistant.
Next, our Matching team gets to work to find you the perfect team. We have a bench of over 1,600 assistants ready to work.
Once you have your assistants, they’re ready to get to work! Our service dashboard makes it easy to manage your workers and track their progress and you’ll have a dedicated account manager for any questions along the way.
