Sound familiar?

The box is not a bookkeeping system.

Every firm like ours starts with the same three piles. If one of them is sitting in your office right now, you are exactly who we do this for.

The box of receipts

A year of receipts in a box, nothing recorded, and tax time getting closer. Hand us the box — sorting out a messy start and getting you on the right track is some of our favorite work.

It goes on the hand-off list →

The mixed accounts

Business and personal money running through the same account, until nobody can say what the business actually made. We separate them — and then we keep them separated, every month.

It goes on the hand-off list →

The payroll Friday

Payday lands every week whether the paperwork is ready or not — and the quarterly forms don’t care how busy you were. We run the payroll and file the forms, so Friday is just Friday.

The Hand-Off Builder

Our quote form asks two things: what kind of business you run, and how busy your month is. Answer them here — plus your payroll rhythm — and watch exactly what your back office would hand off.

Bookkeeping services

Your back office, replaced.

We can replace your back office bookkeeping and payroll — customized for your company, in QuickBooks Online, so there are no software downloads and you have access at all times.

Your books, kept current

Every transaction recorded, every account reconciled. You will be able to keep up-to-date on your company’s reports — not last quarter’s guess.

Reports you can act on

Current reports, ready when you need them — for a decision, a loan packet, or a board meeting — not dug out of a shoebox in April.

QuickBooks Online, set up right

Your books live in QuickBooks Online, set up for your business from day one — nothing to install, and your numbers are where you can see them.

Built around your company

We customize bookkeeping for your company — your entity, your transaction volume, your way of working — instead of forcing you into a package shelf.

A clean hand-off to the CPA

We work with your CPA for your taxes — and the CPA we work with most sits in our office, so nothing gets lost between firms.

Here in League City

A local, family-run firm on Marina Bay Drive. The person who keeps your books is the person who answers when you call.

Payroll services

Payday, handled — filings and all.

Weekly payroll Bi-weekly payroll Monthly payroll

Our inclusive payroll service runs online — no software to install — and the filings are part of the run, not an extra errand waiting for you.

Calculated for you

Wages, deductions, and withholdings are calculated automatically on every run — weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, on your rhythm.

Quarterly tax forms filed

Quarterly payroll tax form filing is included in the service — the deadlines are on our calendar, not yours.

Year-end W-2s & 1099s prepared

End-of-year W-2 and 1099 preparation is part of the same run, finished before the January pressure starts.

Federal & state paid and filed

Federal and state payroll taxes are automatically paid and filed — the money moves and the forms follow, on time.

Meet Chrissy Crews.

She also serves as Office Manager at Tom Crews CPA PLLC — so the person keeping your books sits in the same office as the CPA firm your taxes go to. Nothing about your business has to be re-explained to a stranger in March.

“I’m so thankful for their help with my business! I’m so busy with everything else it is great to know all my bookkeeping and taxes are not something I ever have to worry about. I was afraid info the beginning because my record keeping was nothing and I gave her a box full of my receipts and was mixing my business and personal accounts. It took Christy no time to fix it all up and get me on the right track. Thank you si much Chrissy!”
