Small Business Bookkeeping Services
Running Your Business Shouldn’t Mean Losing Track of the Books
Many small business owners across Columbus, Bexley, and Central Ohio find themselves stuck spending weekends trying to reconcile bank statements, fix QuickBooks errors, or track receipts buried in inboxes. Whether you're a retail shop on High Street, a dog groomer in German Village, or a solo consultant in Clintonville, bookkeeping is often the last thing you want to deal with—but one of the most important.
We offer professional, affordable small business bookkeeping so you don’t have to choose between staying compliant and staying sane. Our CPA-led team helps local entrepreneurs and service businesses keep clean, accurate books so they can focus on what they do best.
Practical Bookkeeping Support That Fits Your Business
You shouldn’t need a full-time hire to get consistent, high-quality books. We provide remote bookkeeping for entrepreneurs and small teams that need expert-level support at a manageable cost. From monthly reconciliations to payroll and reporting, our team functions as your outsourced accounting department.
We help you:
- Reconcile bank and credit card accounts
- Track income and expenses accurately
- Prepare financial reports you can actually use
- Run payroll and file required returns
- Stay tax-ready without year-end cleanups
Who We Work With

If you don’t see your business listed, reach out. If you run a local operation, we likely work with someone in your field.
Why Small Businesses Benefit From Professional Bookkeeping
Even the smallest business can run into big issues when the books are off. Whether it’s missing deductions, late payroll filings, or an unexpected tax bill, poor bookkeeping adds unnecessary stress. With us, you get:
- Peace of mind that your books are accurate
- More time to grow your business or enjoy your evenings
- Fewer surprises at tax time
- Reports that help you understand profitability
Clean books also support better decisions—like when to invest in equipment, hire, or adjust pricing.
We Know Columbus. And We’re Built for Remote Work.
While we serve clients across the state, we’ve built deep roots here in Central Ohio. We understand the seasonal patterns of local businesses—whether you're bracing for a winter slow-down in Worthington or planning for fall game-day crowds near OSU. And because our team is fully remote, we can scale with you no matter where in Ohio you do business.
What’s included in your small business bookkeeping package?
Our base package includes bank reconciliations, expense and income categorization, monthly financial statements, and basic support for questions. We also offer add-ons like payroll or catch-up bookkeeping.
Is this just for Columbus businesses?
While we’re based in Columbus, we serve clients across Ohio and the Midwest. But we do specialize in understanding the local business environment around Bexley, Clintonville, and other Columbus neighborhoods.
Do you use QuickBooks?
Yes. We support QuickBooks Online and can also assist with migrations or cleanups if your books need some work before monthly service begins.
Can you help with sales tax filings or payroll?
Absolutely. We support many retail and service clients who need help with sales tax filings, payroll processing, and related compliance.
How much does bookkeeping cost for a small business?
It varies based on complexity and volume, but most of our clients pay less than hiring an in-house bookkeeper or CPA to clean things up at year-end. We’ll give you a custom quote after a short consultation.
