Bookkeeping for Union Square Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Union Square businesses. Monthly financials, catch-up work, and advisory services for Somerville's growing neighborhood.
Bookkeeping for Union Square
Union Square has changed a lot over the past decade. The Green Line connection brought more foot traffic and the neighborhood filled in with restaurants, creative businesses, and startups alongside the shops and services that have been there for years. What hasn’t changed is that business owners here are busy running their operations and don’t have time to stay on top of the books.
We’re an Andover, MA bookkeeper serving businesses throughout Greater Boston, including Union Square and the rest of Somerville. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work when things have gotten behind, and financial advisory for owners who need more than just transaction tracking.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, and monthly close. Financial statements delivered every month so you actually know where your business stands instead of guessing until tax time.
Catch-Up Work
Catch-Up Work
Behind on your books? We clean up the backlog, fix errors, and get your records current. Most Union Square businesses we work with started here before moving to ongoing bookkeeping.
Payroll
Payroll
Full payroll processing including tax deposits, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid on time and you stop worrying about compliance deadlines and withholding calculations.
Financial Advisory
Financial Advisory
Fractional CFO services for businesses that need strategic guidance. Cash flow forecasting, budgeting, and financial planning without hiring a full-time finance executive.
Union Square Businesses We Work With
The mix of businesses in Union Square reflects the neighborhood itself. Bow Market vendors selling specialty foods next to tech companies in converted industrial space. Restaurants that have served the community for decades alongside new coffee shops and breweries. Creative agencies and professional services firms working out of shared offices.
These are businesses that need professional bookkeeping but aren’t ready to hire someone in-house. We fill that gap with remote services that give you accurate financials without adding overhead.
Restaurants and Food Vendors
Restaurants and Food Vendors
Union Square’s restaurant and food service scene runs on thin margins. We track food cost, labor percentage, and sales by channel so you know if you’re actually profitable or just moving money around.
Tech and Startups
Tech and Startups
Software companies and startups that began with founders doing everything themselves. We bring structure to the books, handle multi-state sales tax complexity, and prepare financials that hold up when you’re raising money or talking to investors.
Creative and Professional Services
Creative and Professional Services
Marketing agencies, consultants, designers, and other professional service firms. Project-based revenue, contractor payments, and the expense tracking that shows you what you’re actually keeping after overhead.
Retail and Service Businesses
Retail and Service Businesses
Shops, salons, and service providers throughout the neighborhood. Inventory tracking, appointment-based revenue, and the bookkeeping basics that keep your business running smoothly without eating into your weekends.
