Bookkeeping for Taos Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Taos businesses. We're in Versailles, just down the road, keeping your books current while you run things.

Bookkeeping for Taos Businesses

Taos is a small Cole County town, but the businesses there have the same financial needs as anywhere else. Contractors need job costs tracked. Farms need financials ready for the bank. Service businesses need to know what they’re actually making after expenses. The books matter, and they need to stay current.

We’re a Mid-Missouri bookkeeper based in Versailles. That puts us close enough to understand the area and far enough that you’re not hiring your neighbor’s side hustle. Everything happens through QuickBooks Online, so your books update in real time instead of waiting for a monthly visit.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get a P&L and balance sheet that show where your business actually stands. No guessing, no three-month lag.

Bookkeeping Cleanup

Behind on the books? That’s where most people start. We do bookkeeping cleanup to sort out the backlog, fix the errors, and get you to a place where monthly service makes sense.

Payroll Processing

We handle paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid on schedule. You stop calculating withholdings yourself.

Sales Tax Filing

Missouri sales tax filed on time with the right amounts. We track what you owe throughout the month so there’s no scramble when the deadline hits.

Who We Work With in Taos

Most business owners in small towns wear every hat. You’re the salesperson, the manager, the crew lead, and supposedly also the bookkeeper. Something has to give, and it’s usually the books. By the time tax season arrives, you’re digging through bank statements trying to remember what you bought in March.

We work with Taos businesses doing anywhere from $100K to a few million in revenue. Big enough that the finances have gotten complicated. Not so big that you need someone on staff full-time.

Farming

Farm bookkeeping that tracks what your lender needs to see. Equipment purchases, operating expenses, livestock and crop sales organized by category. Financials ready when you need to renew your operating line or apply for land financing.

Construction and Trades

Contractors building homes and doing renovation work around Cole County. We track costs by job so you know which projects made money and which ones didn’t. That information matters when you’re bidding the next one.

Home Services

HVAC, plumbing, electrical, lawn care, and other services that keep Taos homes running. We handle the bookkeeping so you can focus on the work that actually pays.

Local Service Businesses

Shops, salons, repair businesses, and professional services serving Taos and the surrounding area. Clean books that tell you what you’re keeping after all the bills are paid.
