Bookkeeping for Huron Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Huron businesses. Monthly records and seasonal support for Lake Erie's fishing and boating economy.
Bookkeeping for Huron Businesses
Huron runs on the water. Charter captains, marinas, bait shops, and the restaurants that feed the fishermen all depend on a busy season to carry them through the year. When business picks up, the books often get pushed aside. That is where we come in.
We are a Hancock County bookkeeper serving small businesses across Northwest Ohio, including the Lake Erie waterfront. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work for accounts that fell behind during your busy months. The financial support you need without hiring someone full-time.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, and monthly financial statements. Your books stay current so you can see exactly where you stand, even when the dock is full and you do not have time to think about numbers.

Busy season left your books months behind? We clean up the backlog, organize the transactions, and get you current. Most of the Huron businesses we talk to are in this situation when they first call.

Payroll processing for year-round employees and seasonal hires. Tax deposits, quarterly filings, and W-2s handled so your crew gets paid correctly and on time every period.
Tax-Ready Records
Tax-Ready Records
When tax season arrives, your CPA gets clean books with proper documentation. No scrambling to recreate what happened during summer. We keep records organized throughout the year.
Huron Industries We Serve
The businesses along the Huron River and Lake Erie waterfront have accounting challenges that other towns do not deal with. Revenue spikes in spring and summer, then drops in winter. Inventory for bait and tackle needs tracking. Seasonal staff come and go. These are real problems that need systems designed to handle them.
We work with business owners who have outgrown doing their own books but are not ready for a full-time hire. If managing your accounts has become a source of stress instead of useful information, we are set up to fix that.
Charter Fishing and Marinas
Charter Fishing and Marinas
Charter captains, boat storage, fuel docks, and marine services. We handle the seasonal revenue cycles and help you track costs so you know what each trip or slip actually brings in after expenses.
Bait, Tackle, and Marine Retail
Bait, Tackle, and Marine Retail
Shops selling fishing gear, boat parts, and supplies need inventory tracking that shows true margins. We keep COGS accurate so you know which products are worth restocking and which are just taking up shelf space.
Waterfront Restaurants and Bars
Waterfront Restaurants and Bars
The hospitality businesses along the river serve locals and tourists alike. We manage tip reporting, sales tax, and the high-volume transactions that come with busy weekends on the water.
Local Contractors and Services
Local Contractors and Services
Beyond the waterfront, Huron has contractors, home service providers, and small businesses serving year-round residents. We handle the monthly books so you can focus on running your operation instead of reconciling bank statements.
Common Questions
Do you work with businesses in Huron?
Yes. We serve businesses throughout Erie County and Northwest Ohio. Everything is handled remotely so your location on the Lake Erie waterfront doesn't slow anything down.
Can you help with seasonal business bookkeeping?
Absolutely. Many Huron businesses have busy seasons from spring through fall and slower winters. We help you track cash flow, manage seasonal expenses, and stay prepared for the off-season months.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting around $200 per month depending on transaction volume. We quote a flat rate after learning about your business so there are no surprises.
My books fell behind during fishing season. Can you catch me up?
That happens a lot with seasonal businesses. When you're swamped with customers, the books get pushed aside. We do catch-up work to get you current and then keep it that way going forward.
Do you handle payroll for seasonal employees?
Yes. We process payroll, handle tax deposits, file quarterly reports, and produce W-2s at year end. Whether you have year-round staff or hire extra help for summer, we take care of it.
