Accounting HQ
The accounting work that repeats, run on a calendar.
Accounting HQ is the recurring side of our work for owner-led companies: bookkeeping, the monthly close, tax, payroll, and filings, every month, quarter, and year. Take one or all five. Tax, payroll, and filings can each be engaged on their own, without moving your books to us.

How an engagement works
The same three people, every month.
Every account runs on the same core three seats. We add specialists as your work calls for them, and close happens on a calendar you can plan around rather than whenever it happens to finish.
Financial Operations Specialist
Your day to day. Transactions, bills, deposits, and checking the books against the bank, and the person who answers when you have a quick question.
Controller
Runs month-end close and builds the reporting package on a calendar you can plan around.
Director
Your fractional CFO. In the ownership conversation, the lender meeting, and the plan for next year.
Added as the work calls for it: a tax team, a payroll team, a Sales Tax Specialist, an Advisor, and an Implementation Specialist.
Five recurring services
Accounting Operations
We keep the books current on a schedule you pick, close out each month on a set date, and hand you financials you can act on. Enhanced reporting and outsourced controllership come standard, not as add-ons.
- Bookkeeping and coding cadence
- Month-end close and financial statements
- A/P and A/R as add-ons
Real-Time Bookkeeping
A smaller scope for simple books. Software sorts your transactions and checks them against the bank as they arrive, our team reviews it, and your financials are current any day of the month.
- Continuous coding and reconciliation
- Human review of every flag
- Current profit and loss and balance sheet
Tax
Returns filed and planning done through the year, so you see the number before it is fixed. We handle the entity return, the owner return, and the filings in between.
- 1040, 1065, 1120, 1120S, 1041
- Sales tax and personal property tax
- Planning and projection meetings
Payroll and HR
Four tiers so the right fit is obvious by headcount. We set up Gusto, handle state registrations, and stay on the compliance calendar with you.
- Four tiers by headcount
- State payroll tax registrations
- Benefits review and HR support
Filings and Compliance
The renewals and returns that come due when nobody owns them. We put each one on our compliance calendar and file it before the deadline.
- Business licenses and renewals
- 1099 preparation and filing
- State registrations and annual reports
Decisions and projects live next door.
Work tied to a decision, like a sale or a board plan, sits in Advisory HQ. Work with a start and an end, like standing up a new back office or connecting systems, sits in Custom Builds.
Tell us what the month looks like now, and we will show you what we would change first.
No pricing pages and no packages to guess at. We quote the engagement once we understand the work.
