The Full Story
About Zero Fluff Books
Bookkeeping Support That Puts You Back in Control
Zero Fluff Books was built for the kinds of businesses that often get overlooked — Etsy sellers, food vendors, tradespeople, and small shops. You don’t have a corporate accounting team. You don’t have time for complicated software or jargon. You just need clean, accurate books you can trust.
Founded by a former IRS Revenue Agent, Zero Fluff Books was created to strip away the overwhelm and give small business owners confidence with their numbers. We specialize in cleaning up messy records, reconciling accounts, and delivering reports you can actually use — whether that’s tracking craft sales, Etsy payouts, or food cart expenses.
But we don’t stop there. Our goal is to empower you. Through audit support and educational resources, we help you understand the “why” behind the numbers, so you’re never left guessing.
Our mission is simple:
Clarity. Confidence. Zero fluff.
Who We Work With
Zero Fluff Books was built for small-but-mighty businesses that don’t have time for complicated systems or big-firm prices. Our services are designed for:
-
Trades & Service Pros — plumbers, electricians, handymen, mobile detailers, and other professionals who need simple, reliable tracking for jobs, invoices, and expenses.
-
Etsy Sellers & Online Shops — handmade makers, print-on-demand creators, and digital product sellers who want clarity around sales, fees, and payouts.
-
Food Vendors & Pop-Ups — food carts, market stalls, and event vendors who juggle cash sales, ingredient costs, and event fees — and need clean records without the headache.
If you’ve got fewer than 300 transactions per month and want bookkeeping that’s straightforward, judgment-free, and actually useful, Zero Fluff Books was made for you.

About the Owner
Hi, I’m Lauren Twitchell — founder of Zero Fluff Books. I created this business to give small shops, Etsy sellers, tradespeople, and food vendors a place to turn when bookkeeping feels overwhelming. My mission is simple: take the stress out of your numbers so you can focus on running and growing your business.
I hold a Bachelor’s in Accounting and a Master’s in Management, and I spent years working as a Revenue Agent with the IRS. That experience showed me firsthand how powerful clean, accurate books can be — and how much confidence they give business owners.
Because of my background, I also understand the audit process from the inside. That’s why I offer non-representative audit support — walking you through the steps, explaining what the IRS is really asking for, and helping you feel confident enough to handle the process yourself.
At Zero Fluff Books, I specialize in cleaning up messy records, reconciling accounts, and delivering straightforward reports you can actually use. No jargon. No fluff. Just clear, reliable bookkeeping and audit support that keeps you in control.
