Bookkeeping for Holts Summit Businesses

Monthly bookkeeping and payroll for Holts Summit small businesses. Real-time books through QuickBooks Online.

Bookkeeping for Holts Summit

Holts Summit sits right on Highway 54, a quick drive to Jefferson City but with its own businesses serving the local community. Whether you’re running a contracting company, a service business, or a retail operation, your books need attention that doesn’t always happen when you’re focused on customers and jobs.

We’re a Mid-Missouri bookkeeping firm that works remotely with businesses throughout the region. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll processing, cleanup work, and sales tax filings handled through QuickBooks Online. Your financial records stay current without you spending evenings trying to catch up.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get P&L and balance sheet reports that reflect what actually happened in your business.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

Behind on your books? We sort through the backlog, fix the errors, and get you current. Most of the stress in bookkeeping comes from lag. We eliminate it.

Payroll Processing

Paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s, and 1099s. Your employees get paid correctly and on time. You stop worrying about withholding calculations and filing deadlines.

Sales Tax Filing

Missouri sales tax tracked and filed on schedule. We handle the calculations and submissions so you avoid late fees and stay compliant with state requirements.

Holts Summit Businesses We Serve

Most business owners we work with reached a point where doing the books themselves wasn’t sustainable. The records fell behind. Tax prep became expensive because the CPA had to reconstruct everything. Financial questions got answered with guesses instead of numbers.

We work with contractors, home service companies, automotive businesses, and other operations in Holts Summit and the surrounding area. If you’ve outgrown the shoebox-of-receipts approach but don’t need a full-time bookkeeper, that’s exactly the gap we fill. Our cleanup service can get you current, and then monthly bookkeeping keeps you there.

Contractors and Trades

Construction companies, electricians, plumbers, HVAC, and general contractors. Job costing that shows which projects make money and which ones don’t. Books that support bonding requirements and bank relationships.

Home Services

Lawn care, cleaning services, pest control, handyman operations. Businesses with recurring customers, seasonal fluctuations, and cash flow timing that requires attention.

Automotive

Repair shops, body shops, tire dealers. Parts inventory tracking, labor versus materials revenue, and the job-level detail that shows what services actually generate profit.

Retail and Service

Local shops, salons, restaurants, and professional services. Inventory cost tracking, tip reporting, sales tax compliance, and the day-to-day financial management that keeps operations running smoothly.

Common Questions

You're in Versailles. Why would a Holts Summit business work with you?

Everything happens through QuickBooks Online and secure document sharing. Your books get the same attention whether you're in Holts Summit, Jeff City, or anywhere else in Mid-Missouri. We're about 45 minutes away if you ever want to meet, but most clients find remote works better for their schedule.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Pricing depends on transaction volume and complexity. We quote a flat monthly rate after looking at your current books so you know exactly what to expect.

How fast can you get my books current?

Depends on how far behind they are. A few months of backlog usually takes a week or two. A year or more takes longer. We give you a realistic timeline after seeing what we're working with.

Do you work with QuickBooks Desktop?

We specialize in QuickBooks Online. If you're on Desktop, we can help you migrate. Online allows real-time access to your books, which is how we keep everything current.

What if I just need help catching up before tax season?

We do standalone cleanup projects. Get the books straight, hand them off to your CPA, and you're done. Many clients start there and then move to monthly service once they see the difference.
