Bookkeeping & Accounting Services for Venice Businesses
Bookkeeping, tax prep, and accounting for Venice small businesses. Monthly financials, payroll, and CPA-prepared tax returns from a Florida-licensed firm.
Bookkeeping and Accounting for Venice
Venice has changed a lot in the last decade. The island and historic downtown are still there, but the growth stretching east toward Wellen Park and the West Villages has brought thousands of new residents and the businesses that follow them. Contractors, medical offices, restaurants, home service companies. All of them need clean financial records, and most of them don’t have the time or the staff to handle it themselves.
We’re a CPA firm based in Riverview that provides small business bookkeeping, tax preparation, payroll, and advisory services for Venice businesses. We work remotely with all our clients, which means you get experienced CPA-level support without driving across town for meetings. Most of what we do happens through a secure portal, email, and phone calls when you need them.
Full-Service Bookkeeping
Full-Service Bookkeeping
Monthly transaction categorization, bank and credit card reconciliation, and financial statements delivered on a consistent schedule. Your books stay current every month so you can make decisions based on real numbers instead of guesswork.
Tax Preparation
Tax Preparation
Federal and state business tax returns prepared with books we’ve maintained all year. We also handle personal returns for business owners. When we do both your books and your taxes, nothing falls through the cracks at filing time.
Payroll
Payroll
We run payroll, handle tax deposits and quarterly filings, and issue W-2s and 1099s at year end. Your employees get paid on time and you stop tracking payroll deadlines on your own.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
If your books are months or years behind, we clean them up and get you current before transitioning to monthly service. This is where most of our client relationships start. No judgment about how it got there, just a clear path forward.
Venice Businesses We Work With
Venice has a unique mix. You’ve got established businesses on the island and along US 41 that have been here for years. And you’ve got newer operations opening up to serve the growing population east of I-75. What they share is that the owners are busy running things day to day and need someone reliable handling the financial side.
We work with Venice businesses doing roughly $100K to $5M in revenue. Our CPA, Miguel Zavaleta, has over 20 years of experience working with small businesses and nonprofits, with particular depth in construction, home services, medical practices, and real estate. If you’ve outgrown doing it yourself but aren’t ready for a full-time accounting hire, that’s exactly who we work with.
Construction and Contractors
Construction and Contractors
Venice and the surrounding area are in the middle of a building boom. General contractors, roofers, HVAC companies, electricians, plumbers. We handle construction job costing, progress billing, and the financial tracking that helps you bid accurately and see which projects are actually profitable.
Home and Property Services
Home and Property Services
Landscapers, pool service companies, pest control, and pressure washing businesses are everywhere in Venice. Lots of homes, lots of retirees who want their properties maintained. We keep the books straight so you can focus on running routes and managing crews.
Medical and Dental Practices
Medical and Dental Practices
Venice’s older population means more medical and dental offices per capita than most Florida cities. We reconcile what you billed to what you collected, track insurance receivables, and produce financials that reflect the reality of healthcare revenue cycles.
Restaurants and Retail
Restaurants and Retail
Venice Avenue, the island, and the growing commercial corridors all have restaurants and shops that depend on seasonal traffic. We handle the high transaction volume, tip reporting, sales tax, and inventory tracking that these businesses require year-round.
Common Questions
Do you have an office in Venice?
No. We're based in Riverview, about an hour north on I-75. We work remotely with all our Venice clients through a secure portal, email, and phone. There's nothing to schedule and no commute for either of us.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Full-service bookkeeping starts at $200 per month. Your actual price depends on transaction volume and complexity. We quote a flat monthly rate after reviewing your books so there are no surprises.
Can you help with seasonal revenue swings?
Yes. Many Venice businesses see revenue shift significantly between season and off-season. We structure services around how your business actually operates and help you plan cash flow so the slow months don't catch you off guard.
Do you handle Florida sales tax?
Yes. We calculate what you owe, file on time, and keep you compliant with Florida Department of Revenue requirements.
My books are a mess. Where do we start?
We start with catch-up work. Whether you're a few months or a few years behind, we clean it up and get you current. Then we move into monthly service so it stays that way. Most of our clients started exactly there.
