Ecommerce scope
Software
ShopifyAmazonEcommerce brands that scale past $3M typically share one operational feature: their books accurately tell them the contribution margin of each SKU, each channel, and each ad campaign. Brands that stall between $1M and $3M usually can't – their P&L shows a single revenue line and a single COGS line, and the answer to "is TikTok Shop actually profitable after ad spend?" is a spreadsheet their operator maintains in isolation from the financial statements.
Our default setup for ecommerce clients: revenue split by channel (Shopify DTC, Amazon FBA, Amazon FBM, wholesale, retail, subscription), COGS split by channel (FBA fees roll into Amazon COGS, not operating expenses), processor fees netted into channel-level gross profit, and ad spend by channel tracked as a contra-revenue or direct marketing expense at the channel level. The result: a P&L that shows Shopify DTC gross margin, Amazon FBA gross margin, and wholesale gross margin as three distinct numbers on the same report.
Most ecom brands under $3M have inventory valuation that's approximately correct instead of actually correct. Landed cost (freight + duty + customs) is often expensed when paid rather than capitalized into inventory. Inventory counts in the accounting software drift from the Shopify or ShipStation system over time. The result: gross margin that looks stable when it's actually volatile. A trained ecom accountant fixes this by (a) properly capitalizing landed cost into inventory, (b) reconciling inventory monthly between the fulfillment system and accounting, and (c) writing off damaged/lost inventory as it happens, not at year-end.
Post-Wayfair, any ecom brand doing meaningful volume triggers economic nexus in multiple states. The typical trigger is $100k in sales or 200 transactions, but it varies by state. We monitor nexus across all 45 sales-tax states continuously – when a brand crosses a threshold, we register, set up collection, and backfile when required. Marketplace facilitators (Amazon, Walmart, eBay) handle some of this automatically, but off-marketplace sales (Shopify DTC) are the seller's responsibility.
Ecommerce pairs with offshore bookkeeping as the core service, often plus AR for wholesale customers. Most brands also benefit from the monthly financial reporting layer for investor or lender conversations. For context on the broader offshore accounting model, see our homepage.
FAQ
Yes – FBA fees broken out, inbound/outbound freight tracked, removal orders handled, reserve balances reconciled, chargebacks logged. Amazon is probably the most detailed reconciliation we do; A2X or Link My Books is standard in our stack.
Yes for Canada (GST/HST/PST), UK (VAT), and EU (IOSS/OSS). We have specialists trained on each regime – international ecommerce is a growing portion of our book.
Ecom catch-up is one of our fastest – typically 4–6 weeks for 18–24 months of cleanup on a single-entity brand. Flat per-month rate, quoted on the scoping call.
Monthly inventory rec across Shopify, Amazon FBA, Amazon FBM, and your 3PL. Variances investigated, write-offs for losses/damages booked, true COGS calculated from reconciled inventory movement.
Yes. Aggregator holding companies and ecom-focused PE firms use us for standardized reporting across their portfolio companies. Multi-entity consolidations and brand-level dashboards are standard.
Yes, though this is typically a monthly analyst layer on top of bookkeeping, not the bookkeeping itself. CAC by channel, blended CAC, LTV cohorts – delivered in a monthly financial report, not the P&L.
