I set up new small businesses in QuickBooks the right way from day one — then teach you to run the books yourself. One flat fee with no ongoing retainer. Remote, or in person if you're local.


Hi, I'm Dagmar O'Rourke. I've lived in Tampa for over 26 years and am originally from Slovakia. I come from a family of accountants — both my grandfather and my mom kept the books — so precise numbers have been part of my life for as long as I can remember.
I have extensive bookkeeping experience, specializing in accounting for law firms while also working with many other types of businesses. I know that once you start the wrong way, one small error carries on and can cause real problems down the line — which is exactly why I set new businesses up correctly in QuickBooks from day one.
I love balanced books, right down to the penny. Beyond the setup, I enjoy teaching owners how to keep their own books with confidence, so you walk away understanding every number.
Five Reasons to choose my service:
1. One-time flat fee with no ongoing retainers
2. Built-in teaching and independence
3. Focus on correct foundation from day one
4. Hybrid delivery model
5. Specialized experience and personal approach

Serving the Tampa Bay area — plus remote nationwide.
Three deliberate steps. No jargon, no monthly retainers — just a clean foundation and the skills to run it.
Your full QuickBooks company file built from the ground up — chart of accounts, bank and credit cards connections, invoicing, and payroll tailored to your business. My core message centers on preventing the expensive, long-term problems that arise when books are started incorrectly.
I do not simply set up the books and walk away, nor do I keep clients dependent on me. The one-hour live coaching and walkthrough session is designed so owners understand every part of their QuickBooks file and can maintain it themselves with confidence. I show you exactly how everything works so you can keep the books yourself with confidence.
You leave owning your finances — organized, understood, and ready to grow. Most bookkeepers and QuickBooks specialists charge monthly fees. I deliver a complete setup plus coaching for a single transparent price. Clients own the system and the knowledge when the engagement ends.
"Set it up once, correctly."
Most new owners inherit messy books that cost them for years. Start clean — understand every number, and never dread tax season again.
Complete setup and coaching for one transparent price. No monthly retainers, no surprises — you own your books when we're done.
