No surprise invoices and no nickel-and-diming. Pick a plan that covers the whole job, and we’ll tell you honestly if you need more — or less. Your first consultation is free.
One monthly price for your books, your reports, and a real person to call. Every plan includes quick questions year-round.
For concrete, landscaping, and trades that slow down in winter. Keep your books current without paying full rate when the work stops.
New LLCs and one-person businesses that need clean books from day one.
Established small businesses that want to know where they stand every month.
Busier businesses with employees, more accounts, and bigger decisions.
*Includes 8 hours of our time each month. If your bookkeeping takes less, the remaining hours carry forward for up to 12 months and can be used for consulting — marketing, your website, paperwork, computer help, or planning. Hours can’t be transferred to anyone else, but they stay with you if you change plans or your business changes its entity type.
Software is billed separately. As certified ProAdvisors, we can often pass along savings on Intuit products — ask us for details. Payroll is $50/month plus $5 per employee. Business tax returns are billed separately, and plan clients save 15%.
Get your return done — or get it done and have someone in your corner all year. Year-Round plans can be paid monthly, so there’s no lump sum in April.
Year-Round spots are limited. We keep a small number of year-round clients so every question gets a real answer, fast. If we’re full, we’ll let you know when a spot opens.
Your federal and Missouri returns, prepared and reviewed with you. Priced by what your return includes — see the fee guide below.
QuickBooks comes in several versions, and so does Xero. The right one depends on how your business actually runs — not on which plan has the longest feature list. Here’s what we look at first.
Cash and card at the job site needs far less than billing customers and chasing payments.
If vendors bill you and you pay later, tracking what you owe becomes a must-have.
A spouse, a partner, an office manager — the number of people who log in often decides the version.
Payroll changes the setup more than almost anything else.
Inventory and job-by-job profit are the features people most often pay for too early — or discover too late.
A few dozen transactions a month, or seasonal swings, can mean a much lighter and cheaper option.
Low-volume and seasonal businesses that don’t invoice. We keep the books; you keep the savings. The lowest-cost way into QuickBooks.
A strong option for very tight budgets that still need invoicing and day-to-day tools.
Several versions that add users, bill pay, inventory, and job tracking as you need them. We’ll match you to the one that fits — and tell you when you’re paying for more than you use.
Software makers change their plans and prices often. We confirm current details with you before you sign up for anything.
Starting prices, so you know what to expect before we begin. Federal and Missouri returns are always included. We’ll give you a firm quote once we see your documents.

No judgment — just a plan to get you current.
Anything we can answer in about 15 minutes — “Can I deduct this?”, “Should I set money aside for taxes?”, “What does this letter mean?” Bigger work, like research, projections for a major decision, or amended returns, is quoted before we start. We reply within one business day.
Running a small business means dealing with a lot more than numbers. When you need an extra set of hands, we’re available by the hour.
Depending on the work. You’ll get the rate and an estimate before we start — no open-ended bills.
A practical plan for your Google Business Profile and ads, built around your budget.
Design, updates, and ongoing management of your business website.
Following up on open invoices so money you’ve earned actually comes in.
Help with outside forms and applications — licenses, renewals, vendor and bank paperwork.
Setup, troubleshooting, and data cleanup — backed by years as a database manager.
If it’s slowing your business down, ask. If it’s not something we do, we’ll say so.
That’s what the free consultation is for. Tell us how your business runs, and we’ll recommend the plan and software that make sense — even if that’s the smallest one.
