Hello, my name is Jan Essex, I started Bookkeeping Services by Jan, LLC to help small business owners with their bookkeeping needs. Managing your books and managing bookkeeping software can be difficult for new business owners and hiring a staff person to perform these tasks can be costly. This is where I can help. I can get your books established so that you are prepared for tax season and help you make strong financial decisions along the way. I will work with you to establish your needs. We can review your monthly transactions and set up a plan to fit your needs.

I have over 30 years of business experience, which includes performing accounting functions such as AR/AP, Payroll and Cost Accounting. I graduated from University of Maryland Global Campus with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management. I have worked for many types of businesses, including Construction Management for several large General Contractors, a Drywall Contractor, a Door and Hardware Business, and a Precast Concrete Business. I understand the challenges involved with running a business. Let me help you get your books set up and running smoothly.
