Bookkeeping for Boone County Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Boone County businesses. Serving Columbia and the surrounding areas from our Versailles office.

Bookkeeping for Boone County

Boone County is the largest market in Mid-Missouri. Columbia alone has more business activity than most of the surrounding counties combined. University economy, healthcare, restaurants, retail, professional services, construction. All of it needs accurate books. That’s what we do.

We’re based in Versailles, about an hour south. We provide bookkeeping for Boone County businesses through QuickBooks Online. Everything stays current because the data moves in real time. No waiting three months to see where you stand.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get financial statements that reflect what actually happened, not what happened six months ago.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

Books that have fallen behind or never quite worked right in the first place. We fix the historical data so the numbers going forward actually mean something.

Payroll Processing

Paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid correctly and on time. You stop worrying about payroll deadlines and withholding calculations.

Bill Payment and Invoicing

Vendor bills paid on schedule. Customer invoices sent promptly. Money moves in and out without you chasing it down or letting things slip through the cracks.

Boone County Businesses We Work With

Columbia drives most of the county’s economy, but not all of it. There are businesses in Centralia and Ashland, farms throughout the rural stretches, contractors working across the region. What they share is the same problem: books that fall behind because running the business takes priority over updating the books.

We work with businesses that need professional bookkeeping but aren’t ready to hire someone full-time. Monthly bookkeeping that stays current. Cleanup when things have gotten away from you. The financial support that keeps the back office running without adding overhead.

Healthcare Practices

Medical and dental practices throughout Columbia and Boone County. Insurance receivables, revenue timing between services and payment, and books that reflect the reality of healthcare billing.

Restaurants and Retail

Downtown Columbia, the District, shopping centers across the county. High transaction volume, tight margins, and cash flow that moves fast. We keep up with all of it.

Professional Services

Consultants, agencies, attorneys, accountants. Columbia has a concentration of professional services serving the region. We handle the bookkeeping so you can focus on clients.

Contractors

Construction and trades working in a growing market. Job costing that tracks profit by project. Books that help you bid accurately and stay ready for bonding requirements.

Common Questions

Do you work with businesses throughout Boone County?

Yes. Columbia, Centralia, Ashland, Hallsville, and the surrounding areas. We're based in Versailles, about an hour south on 63. Most of our work happens remotely through QuickBooks Online, so location doesn't slow anything down.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

It depends on your transaction volume and complexity. We'll give you a clear number after a short conversation about your business. No surprises.

Can you meet in person?

We can, though most clients prefer working remotely. It's faster for everyone. If you want to meet, we're happy to make the drive up to Columbia.

My books are a mess. Can you help?

That's a normal starting point. We do cleanup work to get you current before moving into monthly service. Most of our clients started exactly where you are.

Do you handle Missouri sales tax?

Yes. We track what you owe, file on schedule, and make sure you stay compliant with state requirements.
