You care about your small business's profitability and growth. That means if your current services are unaffordable or not meeting your needs, it’s time to find an alternative. You're here because not all professional services are made equal.

At CSI Accounting & Payroll, we've spent nearly 60 years growing to be the small business owner's one-stop shop. You’re probably asking yourself, "What makes CSI so special? What do they do that my current bookkeeper, tax accountant, and payroll specialist don't?" Let's talk about it! 

This article will cover the services we offer and how they vary from other solutions.

 

Expert Advice

Complimentary Business and Financial Advice

CSI uses your monthly statements to offer financial advice. We’ll set aside time each month to analyze your documents and review how your month went, and then we’ll plan for the future. This is a big reason why many businesses choose monthly accounting over an annual tax accountant.

While we also offer business advice to payroll-only clients, it's much more helpful to have monthly accounting statements to monitor your big moves. This is a key benefit to bundling payroll and monthly accounting together.

Free Resources for Small Businesses

We also offer free resources to help small businesses. We believe that they should have the information they need to thrive. Our website provides viewers with valuable content, whether they’re a client of ours or not. Check out our Learning Center for yourself!

Accounting

Bookkeeping: the Bare Minimum

Everybody knows that businesses are required to keep detailed financial records, so many businesses opt for basic bookkeeping. Did you know that there's another option? At CSI, we go beyond just record keeping to provide small business owners with monthly accounting.

Bookkeeping vs. Monthly Accounting

To put it in simple terms, bookkeeping is the process of data entry for mandatory records, whereas monthly accounting provides monthly financial statements.

Monthly statements help you understand how your business is performing in real time. These also help build a solid foundation for evaluating your business's health and guiding decisions. Most bookkeepers don't have the qualifications to offer this level of advice, if any. Don't make blind decisions leading up to tax season each year!

Get the Most Out of Tax Season

Meeting with an accountant once a year just doesn't cut it for business owners who are seeking growth. Annual tax preparers can only record your historical financial data, but our monthly accounting service includes tax planning, projections, preparation, and filing to legally minimize what you owe and avoid tax surprises.

Plus, your tax season will go off without a hitch if you're up-to-date with your accounting. At CSI, your books are ready to translate to your tax forms, and we only serve small business owners (so we don't get bogged down with thousands of walk-in individual tax clients, as most other firms do).

Experience: Unique Situations and Industries

An experienced service will have a background of working with profitability, operating budgets, mergers, acquisitions, and more. Not to mention, they should be extremely familiar with your industry outside of those topics. CSI has been guiding small businesses for nearly 60 years and offers accounting services that are tailored to over 20 different industries!
