Bookkeeping, tax prep, payroll, and CFO advisory for Denver-area small businesses. We take the messy parts off your desk so you can run your shop, not your spreadsheet.
Tell us about your business — we reply within one business day.
Most small businesses we onboard have been juggling four vendors — a bookkeeper, a tax preparer, a payroll service, and a part-time consultant — none of whom talk to each other. That gap is where money leaks out.
We do all of it. Bookkeeping, tax, payroll, CFO advisory, business formation. Same team, same chart of accounts, same person who picks up the phone. The result is fewer surprises and a tax bill that reflects what was actually planned for, not just what already happened.
Most clients use four of these six together. Here is the menu.
Service
Clean monthly books you can actually use to run the business — reconciled accounts, accurate P&L, A/P and A/R kept current.

Learn moreSmall business accounting isn't one-size-fits-all. A roofer's books look nothing like an eCommerce seller's. Pick your industry — we already know the chart of accounts, the deductions, and the software you use.
Most firms make you wait three months for clean books. We don't. After a 30-minute kickoff call, we pull your bank and credit-card feeds, reconcile the prior period, and you get a real P&L by week two.
“It's hard to find someone who you trust to manage your finances. Do they know what they are doing? Can they be trusted? Will they give me sound advice and guidance? Will they be responsive if I have a question? Kali absolutely meets every one of these.”
“I have been working with TBA for 11 years now. They are super responsive and do a great job of taking care of our business. I would highly recommend them.”
“Kali has been my accountant for years, and she's truly the best! Always professional, efficient, and reliable — her attention to detail and dedication make managing my finances stress-free. The service is top-notch every time. Highly recommend!”
Tax planning, bookkeeping mechanics, and the specific Colorado wrinkles — written by a working accountant.
A 12-step year-end close — what to reconcile, when to true-up, which deadlines have hard penalties, and how to stop scrambling in March.

Augusta Rule, accountable plans, SEP-IRA timing, vehicle, home office — the deductions sitting on the table at every cleanup.

The real income threshold where an S-corp election starts saving money, what reasonable comp looks like, and the costs nobody mentions.

Colorado has 70+ home-rule cities that collect tax separately from the state. What that means for Castle Rock, Denver, and Douglas County small businesses.

One client has been with us 11 years. That's not an outlier. Small business accounting is a relationship business — we know your chart of accounts, your seasonal cash flow, and what your good months look like.
No call centers, no rotating juniors. You get Kali on email, on the phone, and in your inbox.
Castle Rock-based, serving the Denver metro and Colorado Springs corridor — by Zoom or in person.
Books reconciled monthly mean April is paperwork, not panic. Tax planning is included, not extra.
Questions get answered the same week, not next month. Quotes typically come back within one business day.
We work in QuickBooks Online and Shopify — the two platforms we know inside and out, so your books are handled by someone who lives in them every day.
We bill hourly, so what you pay tracks the actual work — driven mostly by your transaction volume and the number of bank or credit card accounts you run. Bookkeeping clients typically spend between $250 and $1,200 per month. Tax preparation is quoted separately and typically runs $400 to $1,000 for most returns. You get an estimate up front before we start.
For most small businesses we work with, no. A CPA is required for audited financial statements, certain SEC filings, and bank covenants that require attestation. Day-to-day bookkeeping, tax preparation, payroll, and IRS correspondence don't require a CPA. If your situation needs a CPA-signed audit or formal attestation, we'll tell you up front and refer you to a CPA partner.
Yes — QuickBooks Online is the platform we work in for nearly every client, and we also work in Shopify for eCommerce sellers. If your books are a mess, we clean them up before we start the monthly engagement.
We work with small businesses across the Denver metro and Colorado Springs corridor — Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Parker, Centennial, Littleton, Aurora, Denver, and Colorado Springs. Most engagements are remote, with in-person meetings available on request.
A typical 12-month catch-up for a small service business takes 2–4 weeks once we have bank and credit card statements. We give you an estimate up front so you know what to expect. If you're behind on filings, we'll tell you which year to prioritize.
Yes. We run payroll for clients with 1–50 employees, including direct deposit, payroll tax filings, year-end W-2s and 1099s. For new payroll setups we recommend a trusted local Denver-based payroll provider; if you already run payroll through another service, we'll work with what you have.
