Bookkeeping for Ottawa Township Businesses

Monthly bookkeeping and payroll for Ottawa Township businesses. Serving Ottawa, Kalida, and surrounding Putnam County.

Bookkeeping for Ottawa Township

Ottawa Township sits at the heart of Putnam County, with Ottawa serving as the county seat and Kalida anchoring the western portion. The businesses here range from farming operations and ag suppliers to contractors, local retailers, and professional offices. What they have in common is a need for accurate books without the overhead of hiring accounting staff.

We provide small business bookkeeping services for Ottawa Township from our base in Findlay. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work, and financial records that are ready when your CPA needs them. Close enough to understand Northwest Ohio, remote enough to keep costs reasonable.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Books closed every month with transactions categorized and accounts reconciled. You get P&L and balance sheet reports that show where your business actually stands without spending your evenings on QuickBooks.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Behind on your records? We dig through the backlog, sort out what happened, and get your books current. No lectures about how things got this way. Just organized records going forward.

Payroll Services

Paychecks processed, taxes deposited, quarterly filings handled, and year-end W-2s issued on time. Your team gets paid correctly and you stop tracking payroll deadlines yourself.

Ohio Sales Tax & CAT

We track what you owe, file on schedule, and keep you compliant with Ohio sales tax and Commercial Activity Tax requirements. No penalties from missed deadlines or incorrect filings.

Ottawa Township Businesses We Serve

Putnam County runs on agriculture, manufacturing, and the trades and services that support both. Ottawa Township reflects that mix. Grain operations and livestock farms. Equipment dealers and feed suppliers. Contractors building and maintaining properties. Retailers and restaurants serving the local community. These businesses need reliable financial records but rarely need or can afford a full-time bookkeeper.

We work with Ottawa Township businesses doing roughly $50K to a few million in annual revenue. The owners who have outgrown doing it themselves but aren’t ready for an accounting department.

Agri-Business

Farm operations and agricultural suppliers throughout the township. We handle the seasonal income patterns, equipment purchases, input costs, and cash flow timing that farming businesses deal with year after year.

Contractors and Trades

Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, excavation, and general contractors working across Putnam County. Job costing that shows which projects make money and which ones don’t so you can bid accurately.

Manufacturing and Fabrication

Small manufacturers and metal fabricators in and around Ottawa Township. Inventory tracking, cost of goods sold, and financial statements that reflect the real health of the operation.

Local Retail and Service

Shops, restaurants, and service businesses in Ottawa and Kalida. Sales tracking, expense management, and books that help you understand margins instead of guessing at profitability.
