[See my Intuit listing](https://proadvisor.intuit.com/app/accountant/search?searchId=matthew-coleman77) How it works ## Bookkeeping work from Wisconsin Each client engagement is a monthly routine of categorizing, reconciling and reporting, done in QuickBooks Online, Xero or whatever the client already uses. We are a young firm and take a limited number of contractors, so we do not promise a volume of work. We do not have an office in Wisconsin, and the work is done online. The larger cities in Wisconsin that our pages cover include Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay. Wisconsin's economy leans on manufacturing, agriculture and tourism, and clients in those fields often need steady monthly books. What you need ## Requirements - Familiarity with Wisconsin filings is a plus, not a requirement - A W-9 and a signed independent contractor agreement - Your own computer and connection, and a space where client files stay private - Respect for client confidentiality - Real experience keeping books in QuickBooks Online, Xero or a similar tool - Comfort with monthly reconciliations and clear client communication Wisconsin work ## What Wisconsin clients' books involve A sales tax guide lists a 5% state rate, plus a 0.5% county tax in 70 of the 72 counties and 0.9% in Milwaukee County. Waukesha and Winnebago counties have no county tax. Filing frequency depends on how much tax you remit, and a return is required even when no tax was collected. We confirm your schedule on your own Department of Revenue account. In Wisconsin, the routine around the books usually includes: - The annual report to the Department of Financial Institutions - Withholding and unemployment insurance reports for employees - Local tax records, since county rates differ across the state - Sales tax returns on the schedule the Department of Revenue assigns, filed even in zero months Wisconsin owners near Chicago, Minneapolis or Madison often serve customers in more than one state. We keep each state's activity separate in the books. Official sources: [Wisconsin Department of Revenue](https://www.revenue.wi.gov/) and [Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions](https://dfi.wi.gov/). Rates and deadlines change, so confirm with the agency. We do not give tax or legal advice. Beyond the home office ## Who the clients are likely to be - **Milwaukee** (Milwaukee County): the local economy named in its Wikipedia article includes Northwestern Mutual, Fiserv, ManpowerGroup, Rockwell Automation and WEC Energy Group. - **Madison** (Dane County): businesses sit alongside employers such as the University of Wisconsin-Madison, UW Health, state government and Epic Systems (the largest private employer). - **Green Bay** (Brown County): businesses sit alongside employers such as Bellin Health, Schneider National, Georgia-Pacific and JBS. Source: Wikipedia, read October 2026. These describe the places, not our work or earnings, and we do not claim any clients there. Wisconsin details ## What to know about Wisconsin work The state tax agency is [Wisconsin Department of Revenue](https://www.revenue.wi.gov/). You do not need to be an expert in its rules, but you should be comfortable reading its notices and knowing which filings belong to the client and which to their tax professional. We do not hire for a location. A Wisconsin bookkeeper works from home, in the client's own file, on a monthly schedule. What it pays ## Pay and terms Pay is set one on one: a short call, then a written rate before any client work begins. Nothing is posted publicly. The arrangement is independent contractor work, you pick what to take, and a 1099 comes at year end. This page is not legal advice. Honest note: we are a young company, and we keep the team small so the contractors who join early get the work as it grows.
