About
Meet Denise S Kimball.
Owner, Bookkeeping and Consulting by Denise
I am an independent bookkeeper with many years of experience. I bring all of it to the table to help you make your business more successful than it already is. Together, we can give you the gift of being the boss — running the business, not letting the business run you.
I will run reports for you to evaluate the health of the business so you can make decisions based on real-time data and stay proactive when challenges start to arise, instead of waiting for a crisis.
I will also work with your accountant to make sure the documents they need for tax purposes are correct and easy to extract the data from. I look forward to working with you and creating a business that serves you well.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
General information only. General information only — not professional accounting or tax advice.
Day-to-day bookkeeping, monthly close, financial reporting, and consulting focused on helping small business owners understand their numbers and make better decisions.
That's the specialty, but many years of experience translate well to other small businesses. Reach out and we can talk about whether it's a good fit.
Yes. Part of the job is keeping your books clean and organized so your accountant has exactly what they need at tax time, with as little back-and-forth as possible.
Reporting cadence is flexible — most clients want a monthly package, and many appreciate more frequent snapshots during busy or challenging seasons.
Not necessarily. Most bookkeeping work can be handled remotely, with regular check-ins by phone or video. In-person visits can be arranged when it makes sense.
