I'm Ray.
I fix books
for a living.
Know exactly what your business made. Never fear a letter from the IRS again. I lead the bookkeeping team at Elevated Tax Strategies. We keep books for businesses from their first year to $100 million a year. Our team has caught up 10 years of books in under 2 hours.
See a real cleanup, start to finish.
No slides. No pitch. Just me, a messy set of books, and a timer on screen.
"We had a major project on our hands that was overwhelming. They took our project head-on, made it manageable, and gave us peace of mind. Ray has been professional, attentive and warm our entire experience."
"Hands down, the very best accountant and business consultant I've ever worked with. LLC creation, business bookkeeping, crypto bookkeeping, my personal taxes. A one stop shop. Their expertise saved me time and money."
"Their team communicates clearly and promptly, making the entire process stress-free. Basecamp is super easy to navigate, keeping everything organized and accessible. I'd highly recommend them."

The Books Review
Know exactly where you stand in 5 days.
- Send me your statements. That is all you do.
- Within 5 business days you get a short video from me. Where your books stand. What is wrong. What it is costing you.
- A real, flat price to fix it. Your $500 counts toward the fix.
I have seen 10 years behind. Nothing you send will surprise me. No judgment. Ever. And this one is fully private, just you and me.
Start My Books ReviewThe Second Opinion
- Send me one month of statements. I redo that month on Kick, on camera. A new video drops every Monday on YouTube. In the video you are just a first name and an industry. "Mike, HVAC." That is it.
- You watch me work. Side by side with your current books, you see exactly what they are missing. Most people are missing deductions every month.
- If your books are good, I will say so in the video. Keep your bookkeeper with my blessing.
Here is why it is free: your month becomes a lesson for everyone watching. Your name and your business stay private. Want it fully off camera instead? That is the Books Review.
Get My Second OpinionYou never lose a dollar here
Both doors lead to the same simple path. Every step you pay for rolls forward and pays for the next one.
Start
The $500 review, or the free Second Opinion. You learn exactly where you stand.
The Catch-Up
A real quote, flat price, no hourly games. Your review fee counts toward it.
Stay Clean
$500 a month on Kick. Commit to a year and your catch-up cost comes back as credit.
Tax season is not when you save on taxes.
It is when you find out what waiting cost you. Tax moves expire December 31. You cannot find them with books that are months behind.
Sound familiar? You are not the first owner to feel this way. Messy books are normal. Almost everyone I help starts behind. Do not clean the house before the housekeeper comes. Just send what you have.
Quarterly estimated taxes are due. Clean books tell you the real number.
Extension filing deadline. You cannot file without your books.
The window for this year's tax-saving moves closes for good.
Join now and you get months of real tax moves. Join in December and you get a report of what you missed.
I take 10 new clients a month. Start with a review or a second opinion this week.
Pick My DoorYour books. Your account. Your time.
Your books live on Kick, in your own account. Not mine. Fire me any day and keep everything.
No monthly meetings to sit through. When I need an answer, I ask you in Basecamp. You answer on your own time, from your phone. One place. Every question. Nothing lost.
Software does the grunt work. It sorts your transactions fast. But I check every number before it counts. The machine does the typing. I do the thinking.
My promises, in writing
- We reply within 1 to 3 business days, based on your plan. Miss it, and that month is free.
- Your month closes by the 7th or the 15th, based on your plan.
- Tax-ready package by January 31.
- Questions are always free.
- My mistakes get fixed free.
- Your price is locked for 12 months.
- Leave any time. Keep everything.
Before you pick a door
What if I am embarrassed by my books?
Everyone is. That is the most normal feeling in this whole process. I have seen 10 years behind, shoeboxes, and everything in between. Nothing you send will surprise me, and I will never make you feel small about it.
I already have a bookkeeper. Will you trash their work?
No. The Second Opinion is honest. If your books are right, I will tell you, and you should keep them. If something is missing, you will see it side by side and decide for yourself.
How far behind is too far?
There is no such thing. One year or ten, the job is the same to us. When you can send every statement and the books are cash basis, our team moves fast. Our record is 10 years caught up in under 2 hours. Complex books take longer. But they take days, not months.
What happens to my $500 if I do not move forward?
You keep the video and the full list of what I found. The $500 only credits forward if you continue. Either way, you finally know where you stand.
If my month goes on YouTube, will people know it is me?
No. In the video you are a first name and an industry, like "Mike, HVAC." No business name, no account numbers, no locations. Viewers see numbers and lessons, not you. Want to stay off YouTube completely? Pick the Books Review. That one is private.
Do I have to switch software?
Yes. All my clients run on Kick. It is modern, it is fast, and your books live in your own account, so you are never locked in with me. That is the point.
Run your firm on Kick and AI, like we do.
I share how our team keeps books for hundreds of clients. If you run a firm and want to talk shop, I would love to meet you.
Tell me where you stand. I will call you.
