# Client Onboarding for E-commerce Bookkeepers

> AI drafts the engagement letter, generates a tailored document-request list for the client's E-commerce Bookkeeping profile, chases missing items across email and QuickBooks Online, and hands the partner a ready-to-work file — first billable task starts in 3 days, not 3 weeks.

## The Problem

Onboarding a new E-commerce Bookkeeping client means chasing prior-year returns, engagement letters, and a dozen document requests — and every delay pushes the first billable task further out.

## What We Build

AI drafts the engagement letter, generates a tailored document-request list for the client's E-commerce Bookkeeping profile, chases missing items across email and QuickBooks Online, and hands the partner a ready-to-work file — first billable task starts in 3 days, not 3 weeks.
