Total Accounting and Bookkeeping Solutions

What Total Accounting and Bookkeeping Solutions does

Total Accounting and Bookkeeping Solutions (TAABS) is a private professional services firm headquartered at 16501 Ventura Blvd., Suite 508, Encino, California, that provides bookkeeping and outsourced accounting services to small and mid-sized businesses across the United States. The firm organizes its offering around six service lines: core Bookkeeping, Outsourced Accounting, Catch-up Services, Digital Bill Payment and Invoicing, Payroll Management, and Business Consulting and Forecasting. Its positioning emphasizes year-round advisory engagement and deep financial analysis rather than periodic transactional compliance, targeting growing businesses that need ongoing financial guidance to support decision-making.

The firm's technology foundation is built on Intuit's QuickBooks platform, with the team holding QuickBooks ProAdvisor certifications that enable them to advise clients on system setup, navigation, and feature utilization. There is no proprietary software or platform; the firm delivers services through certified expertise on a third-party tool stack. Architecture is service-delivery based rather than software-based, with no disclosed APIs, SDKs, or integrations beyond QuickBooks.

Revenue is generated through recurring professional services engagements across the six service categories, structured as ongoing subscription-like relationships with growing businesses. Distribution is direct: clients are acquired through company website content, phone contact ((818) 981-0600), and direct outreach. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured via custom proposals per client. Marketing is limited to a website presence on taabs.la hosted on Squarespace, with no disclosed paid acquisition channels, partnerships, or referral programs. Leadership includes Song Pettus as Chief Executive Officer. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding, investors, or ownership structure.
