Bookkeeping & Payroll for Fayette Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Fayette businesses and farms. Monthly service, cleanup work, and QuickBooks Online support from a Mid-Missouri team.

Bookkeeping for Fayette

Fayette sits in the middle of Howard County farm country with Central Methodist University adding another dimension to the local economy. The businesses here range from agricultural operations to shops and services around the courthouse square. What they share is owners who handle most things themselves and sometimes let the books slide while focusing on operations.

We’re a Mid-Missouri bookkeeper based in Versailles, working remotely with businesses across the region. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll processing, cleanup for books that have fallen behind. The work happens in QuickBooks Online so everything stays current and accessible without anyone driving across the county for a meeting.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get financial statements that reflect reality while the information is still fresh enough to act on.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

Most clients come to us behind. Six months, two years, sometimes longer. We reconstruct what’s there, organize what’s missing, and build a foundation you can actually work from going forward.

Payroll Processing

Paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s. Your employees get paid correctly and on time. You stop tracking deadlines because we handle them.

Bill Payment and Invoicing

Daily cash movement handled on schedule. Vendor payments go out when they should. Customer invoices get sent promptly. Money flows in and out without friction or forgotten items.

Fayette Businesses We Work With

Howard County has real economic activity that outsiders might not expect from the population numbers. Agricultural operations need books that hold up when applying for operating lines. Local service businesses need accurate records for tax season. The university creates demand for everything from food service to property rentals.

We work with businesses that have outgrown doing the books themselves but don’t have enough volume to justify a full-time hire. That middle ground is exactly what monthly bookkeeping service is designed for.

Farms and Agriculture

Row crops, livestock, mixed operations throughout Howard County. Books organized for operating loan applications and tax prep. Categories that match what your lender and CPA need to see.

Local Retail and Service

Shops around the square, restaurants, service businesses serving Fayette and the surrounding area. We track the numbers that tell you whether you’re actually making money after expenses.

Property and Rentals

Rental properties serving students and the broader community. Income and expense tracking by property, clear records for tax time, books that separate personal and business activity.

Trades and Home Services

Contractors, repair services, lawn care, and maintenance businesses covering Fayette and nearby towns. Job tracking and cash flow management for businesses where the owner is usually on a job site, not behind a desk.
