Bookkeeping for Marblehead Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Marblehead businesses. From waterfront shops to professional offices, we keep your books clean year-round.

Bookkeeping for Marblehead Businesses

Marblehead has been a working waterfront for centuries. Today the town balances its maritime heritage with a mix of tourism, professional services, and small businesses that serve both residents and visitors. Whether you run a shop on Washington Street or a consulting practice from home, clean financial records matter for making good decisions.

We provide ongoing bookkeeping, payroll, and financial support for Marblehead businesses. Our office is in Andover, but we work remotely with all clients. You get consistent service without paying for downtown overhead or scheduling around office visits.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, and monthly close. You receive P&L and balance sheet reports every period so you know where your business stands without spending evenings in QuickBooks.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

If your books fell behind while you focused on running the business, we fix that. We reconstruct and reconcile months or years of backlogged records, then move to regular monthly service.

Payroll Services

Full payroll processing including direct deposits, tax withholdings, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid correctly and on time while you stop worrying about payroll deadlines.

Tax-Ready Records

We prepare your books for a seamless CPA handoff. Clean categories, proper documentation, and records that hold up during tax season. No scrambling in February to find what your accountant needs.

Marblehead Businesses We Work With

The town has a distinct mix of businesses. Waterfront restaurants and galleries draw summer visitors. Professional offices serve clients across the North Shore. Real estate agents handle the steady market for historic homes and waterfront property. Contractors and service providers keep everything running year-round.

We work with Marblehead business owners who need accurate financials but don’t have enough work to justify hiring someone full-time. As your Andover, MA bookkeeper, we fill that gap with flat-rate monthly service and the expertise to handle whatever complexity your business involves.

Retail and Galleries

Shops and galleries in Old Town that see different traffic patterns throughout the year. We handle inventory tracking, sales tax compliance, and the financial reporting that helps you plan for slower months.

Restaurants and Hospitality

Waterfront restaurants, cafes, and bars serving locals and visitors. High transaction volume, tip reporting, food cost tracking, and the cash flow management that seasonal businesses require.

Professional Services

Consultants, attorneys, financial advisors, and other professionals based in Marblehead. We track profitability, manage accounts receivable, and keep your books ready for whatever opportunity comes next.

Marine Services

Boat maintenance, marine supplies, sailing instruction, and businesses connected to Marblehead’s yachting community. Seasonal revenue cycles and specialized inventory tracking handled properly from month to month.

Common Questions

Do you serve businesses in Marblehead?

Yes. We work with businesses throughout Marblehead and the North Shore. Our office is in Andover, about 30 minutes away, but we work remotely with all clients so location doesn't affect service quality.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month. Pricing depends on transaction volume and complexity. We provide a flat monthly rate after reviewing your business so you know exactly what to expect.

Do you work with seasonal businesses?

Yes. Marblehead has businesses that are busier in summer than winter. We structure our services around your actual business cycle, not a calendar that assumes every month looks the same.

Can you help if my books are behind?

That's a normal starting point for many clients. We handle catch-up work to get your records current, then transition to monthly service to keep them that way.

Do I need to come to your office?

No. Everything happens remotely through secure document sharing and regular communication. Most business owners prefer it because there's nothing to schedule around and no drive time.
