Do you need a bookkeeper?
The answer is almost always yes. Our full-charge bookkeeping services means tracking all financial transactions—sales, expenses, assets, liabilities—and knowing the difference between them. We will ensure that all of your transactions have been categorized correctly, all of your accounts reconciled and your books balanced. It also means creating systems and entering things in a way that satiates multiple needs. You name it, we can handle it for you.
Having a hard time managing the brass tacks of having a business?
Let us help. We offer a wide range of services from system development and implementation to profitability analysis and cash flow projections and everything inbetween. We also offer fractional CFO (Chief Financial Officer) and Director of Finance services as well as Art Collection Management. If you are looking for an annual budget or curious how to start tracking your artwork, we got you.
Is tax season one of the most daunting times of year for you?
Of course it is (secret: it is for us too) – but we can help you get your books tax ready. We take your metaphorical (and sometimes physical) box of receipts, organize it, put a bow on it and pass it off to your accountant. Other tax services we offer are 1099 (NEC and MISC) preparation and filing and multi-state sales tax preparation and filing (including sales tax nexus). We have extensive experience in both areas.
Have you received a dreaded letter from the government?
Once the initial shock and horror subsides, take a breath and call us. We have extensive experience with federal, state and local audits as well as UBT, sales tax and domicile. Yes, there are many different types of audits but with the right team in place the outcome may not be so grim. We can create and execute a plan of action that is right for your specific situation (in coordination with your CPA and/or attorney of course). We can also lead internal audits to assess, address and mitigate problems before they blossom outside of the organization. A critical lens can alleviate future ails.
