Small businesses along Bridge Street in downtown Charlevoix, Michigan

Accounting & bookkeeping

Online, remote and virtual accounting for companies of all sizes. Compared with the cost of an in-house accountant, outsourcing the books is usually the cost-effective option.

Recordkeeping-system design

Systems designed to improve operations, including QuickBooks and legacy-system setup, chart-of-accounts review and staff training.

Payroll support

Payroll rarely feels critical until something goes wrong. It demands current knowledge of tax law and deposit rules — a comprehensive service handles both.

Financial statements & reporting

Compilations, reviews and management reporting, plus analysis of management-prepared statements, budget preparation and job costing.

Business consulting & profitability

Solving business problems and increasing profitability — including business transaction process flow and the decisions behind the numbers.

Business valuation & succession

Valuation and ownership-transition work for the moment a closely held business changes hands.

To confirm · Audit, review, compilation and business valuation availability must be confirmed with Robert before these are presented as active engagements.

A modern client experience

Fewer phone calls. Fewer paper forms. The same CPA.

Intake, document requests and status updates are moving from paper and voicemail to a clear digital path — so the team spends its time on your numbers instead of chasing them.
