Humbooks

Real estate is the stated target market here — brokers, agents, property managers, mortgage brokers and investment companies — though Humbooks takes on clients from outside it too. The routine work is bookkeeping in QuickBooks Online, payroll and tax preparation. Alongside that sits a business services side: setting up corporations and LLCs, bylaws, stewardship and trademarks. The firm describes its purpose as giving small businesses financial reporting transparent enough to make decisions from, and its ambition as becoming the main provider of accounting and bookkeeping to small businesses on the North Coast of California, the region it works across from its Eureka base. Estimates are offered free, and clients can settle bills online.
