Bookkeeping for Middlesex County Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Middlesex County businesses. From Cambridge tech startups to Lowell service companies, we keep your books current.
Bookkeeping for Middlesex County
Middlesex County has more economic activity than most people realize. Cambridge alone has enough tech companies and research institutions to anchor an entire region. Add in the Route 128 corridor, the professional services firms spread across Newton and Waltham, and the manufacturing and service businesses throughout Lowell and Framingham, and you have a county with serious business density.
We’re Merrimack Valley bookkeepers based in Andover, right on the county line. Close enough to understand the local business landscape, set up to serve the entire county through remote work. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work, and strategic financial guidance for businesses that have outgrown the DIY approach.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. Financial statements that show you where your business actually stands instead of a best guess based on your bank balance.
Payroll
Payroll
Full payroll processing including tax withholdings, deposits, quarterly filings, and year-end forms. Your team gets paid correctly. You stop worrying about compliance deadlines.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Books that are months or years behind? We reconstruct what’s there, reconcile accounts, and deliver clean records you can actually use. Most clients start exactly here.
Financial Strategy
Financial Strategy
Beyond the monthly close. Cash flow forecasting, budget development, KPI tracking, and the strategic thinking that helps you make better decisions about where the business is heading.
Middlesex County Businesses We Work With
The county spans everything from venture-backed startups in Kendall Square to family-owned service businesses in Marlborough. What they share is a need for accurate books without the overhead of a full-time accounting hire. You need someone who understands your business well enough to keep the finances straight and flag problems before they become expensive.
We work with businesses doing $50K to several million in revenue. Companies that are past the spreadsheet stage but not ready for an internal accounting department. That’s where we fit.
Tech Startups and SaaS
Tech Startups and SaaS
Cambridge and the Route 128 corridor produce tech companies at a steady pace. We handle subscription revenue recognition, burn rate tracking, and investor-ready financials. Books that hold up during due diligence.
Professional Services
Professional Services
Consulting firms, marketing agencies, law practices, engineering companies. Businesses built on billable hours need books that track project profitability and keep receivables moving. We handle both.
Healthcare Practices
Healthcare Practices
Dental offices, therapy practices, chiropractic clinics throughout the county. Insurance receivables, patient billing, and the revenue timing issues that make healthcare accounting different from standard service businesses.
Service Businesses
Service Businesses
Cleaning companies, home services, transportation, childcare. The businesses that keep Middlesex County running. We track jobs, manage payroll, and keep the books clean for tax time and beyond.
