Flat-fee, always
We're flat-fee. You know the exact cost before we start.
I'm Ryan Harwell, founder of Books Ready Now and Trident Bookkeeping Solutions. For the past 7 years I've run Trident — a bookkeeping firm focused exclusively on insurance agency owners, now serving 60+ agencies across the US.
In 2026, I launched Books Ready Now to solve a specific problem I kept seeing in solo and small business owners outside the insurance niche: they don't need monthly bookkeeping at $500+/month, but they DO need clean, accurate year-end financials so their CPA can file their return without scrambling.
Books Ready Now is one offer, done well: 12 months of bookkeeping → tax-ready financials in 3 business days, flat-fee. Built on Kick (AI-powered ledger) instead of QuickBooks because year-end work is a sprint, not a marathon.
We're flat-fee. You know the exact cost before we start.
We're not asking for a $500/mo subscription. One sprint a year, done right.
It takes you 40+ kitchen-table hours. We do it in 3 days with no learning curve and no errors.
