Bookkeeping for Brighton Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Brighton businesses. Clean books and reliable numbers for Boston's neighborhood businesses.
Bookkeeping for Brighton Businesses
Brighton has its own business community. Restaurants along Brighton Avenue, service businesses tucked into storefronts, medical offices near St. Elizabeth’s, and professional services operating from mixed-use buildings throughout the neighborhood. These aren’t downtown Boston operations with accounting departments. They need reliable bookkeeping without the overhead.
We provide bookkeeping, payroll, and financial support for Brighton businesses from our base in Andover. Everything works remotely, which means you get the same service you’d get from a Boston firm without paying for a downtown address you’ll never visit.

Brighton Businesses We Work With
The neighborhood runs on small businesses. Coffee shops and restaurants that draw crowds from across Boston. Medical practices serving the community. Property managers handling the rental buildings that make up much of Brighton’s housing stock. Service businesses that keep everything functioning.
We work with Brighton businesses doing anywhere from $100K to a few million in revenue. Big enough to need real bookkeeping, not big enough to justify hiring someone full-time. Our Andover, MA payroll service fills that gap with professional support at a reasonable cost.
