Ongoing bookkeeping that keeps decisions simple
Professional Tax Solutions supports small businesses across Grand Blanc, Traverse City, Flint, and Lansing with monthly bookkeeping, reconciliations, and clear reports you can use. We organize transactions, categorize expenses correctly, and prepare statements so tax time is faster. If paying vendors is taking too much time, our team handles bills securely and tracks due dates. When your team grows, we align records with payroll and keep everything in step with Michigan rules.
Many clients start with bookkeeping services, add accounts payable outsourcing as invoices pile up, then layer in payroll services when hiring begins.

Common accounting and bookkeeping Questions
How often should bookkeeping be done for a small business?
Monthly is best for most owners. Reconciling bank and card accounts each month keeps reports current, helps you spot issues early, and makes year end smoother. Seasonal operations near Old Mission Peninsula or along US 31 may use a monthly cadence in peak months and quarterly checkups in the off season.
What software do you support and can you fix a messy file?
We work with popular small business platforms and can clean up chart of accounts, duplicates, and uncategorized transactions. After a quick review, Professional Tax Solutions proposes a cleanup plan with clear milestones so your reports are useful again.
What is included in accounts payable outsourcing?
We collect and code bills, route approvals, schedule payments, and store documents for easy lookup. You get a weekly or semi-monthly pay run summary and a month end report that shows what was paid and what is due next month.
Do you handle receivables and customer payments too?
es, if you need it. We can post receipts, monitor aging, and prepare reminders so cash flow stays predictable. Many storefronts near Downtown Flint and service businesses around Grand Blanc use this add on with monthly bookkeeping.
How do bookkeeping services connect to tax preparation?
Clean books make tax filing faster and more accurate. When financials are current, deductions are easier to document and questions are minimal. We coordinate directly with the preparer so your reports flow into the return without extra back and forth.
Can you work fully virtual if my team is spread across Lansing and Metro Detroit?
Yes. Document exchange, approvals, and reporting all run through secure tools. If you prefer, we can still meet in person at our Grand Blanc or Traverse City offices for onboarding or periodic reviews.
What internal controls do you put in place for bill payments?
At minimum, we separate who approves, who schedules, and who reviews. We use vendor lists, invoice numbering, and documented workflows to reduce errors. You always see what is being paid before it leaves the account.
How is pricing structured for startups versus established teams?
Pricing reflects transaction volume, number of accounts, and any add ons like payables or receivables. Startups often begin with a light monthly package and step up as activity grows. We outline options in writing after a brief discovery call.
