Modern bookkeeping
Intending to relocate to Cyprus I'm looking for someone who can handle my bookkeeping/accounting.
So far every accounting firm I checked seems to charge per invoice/transaction. Rather high rates too.
This might've made sense when things were processed manually, but every accounting app I've worked with over the last 10+ year imports and reconciles the vast majority of (my) transactions completely automatically.
I've contacted some of these firms, but they all remain vague and merely promise it's negotiable, but only after they lock you into their incorporation package.
I'm looking for someone to just say "we work with software X, charge $Y/hour, if you get all the file formats right it should be ~Z days work).
I did find a small number of foreigner-made websites that promise more modern handling. But they don't appear to represent actual accountants - just reselling hustlers.
How do I find these modern accountancy firms myself?
