Booked Solid will evaluate your current processes to determine the most efficient plan to effectively assist you in taking your business to the next level.

The main benefit of hiring a bookkeeper is peace of mind. A bookkeeper will ensure that all of your financial data is entered into QuickBooks accurately, and they will produce a few concise reports from that data. These reports will help you and your advisors analyze your business’s growth and profitability. Additionally your business will be compliant and ready for tax preparation in a timely manner.

Most business owners wear multiple hats. From sales and marketing to management and delivery, business owners are constantly juggling multiple priorities. Often times they are so “in the weeds” that they can’t see the “forest for the trees!” We have been there too, and we are your partner to move your business forward by planning for the future while evaluating the past. We provide advice, support, and guidance as needed so that we can help you understand what is really going on in your business.

Booked Solid was founded by Dawn Dean in 2005. Dawn is a Certified QuickBooks User with a diverse background in small business. She and her husband owned a successful retail business in the children’s entertainment industry so she knows first-hand what it takes to run a small business, manage employees, and try to maintain a life balance.
“I remember how frustrated I was during the initial days of running our business. I felt like I needed about 10 of me to go around, and I wasn’t sure if that would even be enough. I wished that I had someone I could call to help me with the bookkeeping even though it was the part of the business I enjoyed the most. I had so many questions that I wanted answered but when I looked at the rates CPAs charged I was discouraged. It was then that I decided I wanted to help others in this situation. After selling our business I founded Booked Solid.”
Dawn received her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Analysis/Management Information Systems from Texas A&M University in College Station, TX.
