Small business

Tax preparation, bookkeeping, payroll and Ohio LLC setup for small businesses.

We help small businesses around Springfield and Urbana with tax preparation, bookkeeping, payroll, and Ohio LLC setup.

Whether you're just getting started or you've been at it for years, we can keep the records and the returns in one place. If you're getting ready for the 2027 filing season (tax year 2026), just call or text and we'll go over what you need.

Common situations we help with

Common situations we help with:

  • Starting an Ohio LLC and getting an EIN (the packages below are the same ones already on our homepage)
  • Day-to-day bookkeeping: recording the transactions so the year-end return is easier
  • Payroll and payroll tax filings
  • Business tax returns, including self-employed and entity returns
  • Simple financial reporting for a lender or investor
  • Self-employed or gig work that may belong on a business return (our Forms page has a Self-Employed Business Organizer)
  • Quarterly estimated payments
  • Year-end 1099s for contractors you paid, when a form is required
  • Sales tax and Ohio Business Gateway help

What to bring, and what to expect

What to bring depends on whether you're a new business or you've been operating for a while. As a starting point:

  • Last year's business and personal returns, if you have them
  • Income and expense records, or access to the bookkeeping
  • Payroll reports if you have employees
  • 1099s you received, and a list of contractors you paid
  • Formation papers or your EIN letter, if the business is already set up

You can come in, drop documents off, or upload them through our Client Portal. Self-employed clients can start with the organizer on our Forms page.

This is general information, not advice for your specific situation. Tax rules change. Call or text us if you're not sure what applies to you.
