Bookkeeping for Clinton Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and tax services for Clinton businesses. A Central Massachusetts CPA firm just up the road in Fitchburg.
Bookkeeping for Clinton Businesses
Clinton has a real downtown with real small businesses. Restaurants, salons, service companies that have been around for years. These aren’t businesses that need a big Worcester accounting firm. They need bookkeeping and tax services from someone who understands owner-operated businesses and charges accordingly.
We’re based in Fitchburg, just up the road. Simona Leppala is a CPA and Enrolled Agent, which means the bookkeeping, tax prep, and tax planning all stay under one roof. Most work happens remotely, but we’re close enough to meet when it makes sense.

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get monthly financials that show you where the business stands without spending your weekends in QuickBooks.

Payroll

Pay runs processed, taxes deposited, quarterly filings handled. Year-end W-2s and 1099s done on time. Your team gets paid accurately and the compliance stays current.
Tax Preparation and Planning
Tax Preparation and Planning
Simona is a CPA and Enrolled Agent. Your personal tax return gets prepared by the same person who keeps your books, with planning that happens year-round rather than just at filing time.
Clinton Businesses We Work With
Clinton’s economy runs on the small businesses along High Street and throughout town. Restaurants serving the local community. Salons and barbershops that have built clientele over years. Home service companies working across the area. These are businesses where the owner handles too much and the books slip because there’s always something more pressing.
We work with established businesses that have outgrown doing their own bookkeeping but don’t need or want to hire someone full-time. That gap is what we fill.
Restaurants and Cafes
Restaurants and Cafes
Daily sales, tip tracking, food costs, payroll for tipped employees. Clinton’s restaurants run on thin margins where knowing your numbers can make the difference between a good month and a bad one.
Salons and Barbershops
Salons and Barbershops
Worker classification, booth rentals, tip reporting, retail product sales and the sales tax that comes with them. Salon bookkeeping has specific complications, and we know how to handle them.
Home Services
Home Services
Landscapers, contractors, handymen, cleaning companies. Seasonal revenue swings, equipment costs, subcontractor payments, and 1099s at year end. We track it all and keep the books ready for tax time.
Local Retail and Services
Local Retail and Services
Shops and service businesses throughout town. Inventory, sales tax, payroll, and monthly financials that show you which parts of the business are actually profitable.
