Nixa is one of the fastest-growing towns in Missouri, and it shows. New rooftops on every side of town, new storefronts along Massey Boulevard, and new businesses that outgrew the spreadsheet they started on. If that’s yours, you’re the kind of client I work with most.
Who I help in Nixa
A lot of my Nixa work follows the housing growth. The home-service trades chasing all those new rooftops, the plumbers, electricians, HVAC companies, and lawn crews, need job-level numbers and clean 1099s for their subs. That’s what contractor bookkeeping is built for. Real estate agents and investors working Christian County need commission tracking and per-property books, which is real estate bookkeeping. The shops, salons, and restaurants along Massey Boulevard need merchant deposits reconciled and a Profit and Loss that tells the truth, and that’s service business bookkeeping.
Growing fast is exactly when books fall behind
When the phone rings all day and the crew is booked out for weeks, the books are the first thing to slide, and nobody notices until tax time or a loan application. It happens. Falling behind that way usually means business is good, so I’m not going to scold you for it, and we’ll work out a plan together. I rebuild the missing months one period at a time until you’re current, with a fixed quote in writing after a free review. If it’s been more than a year, that’s fine by me, because those long rebuilds are the jobs I enjoy most.
Monthly bookkeeping for Nixa businesses
Once the books are current, monthly service keeps them that way. Every transaction entered and categorized, bank and card accounts reconciled, every payroll transaction recorded and reconciled from your payroll provider, and your financial package in a shared Google Drive folder by the 15th, from a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor. The fee is a flat monthly amount that fits an average month of transactions, and you get the price in writing before I touch anything. The pricing page explains how I build that quote.
A Form 990 on extension is due November 16, 2026. Your CPA needs reconciled, fund-level books to finish it, and that’s the part I do.
Filed an extension for 2025? Those returns are due October 15, 2026. Your CPA needs a reconciled 2025 file before then, and the sooner I see it the more room we both have.
1099s for your subs and vendors are due February 1, 2027, and they’re built from a full year of entered payments. If 2026 is behind, the last weeks of the year are the time to catch it up.
1099s for your subs and vendors are due February 1, 2027, the same day your payroll provider sends W-2s. If the 2026 books aren’t entered yet, that’s the first thing I’d fix.
S corporation and partnership returns are due March 15, 2027. Your CPA needs a reconciled 2026 file to file on time.
Individual returns are due April 15, 2027. A reconciled 2026 file is what your CPA needs to file, or to file the extension with real numbers.

What people say about working with me
Accurate, detailed and personable; three of many qualities that Diane brings to the table every single day. There is no one I would trust more than Diane with my bookkeeping.
Where Nixa sits from my desk
Nixa is about 45 minutes from Ash Grove, down 160 through Springfield. Most of my work happens in QuickBooks Online and over Zoom, so the drive rarely matters. When an in-person visit helps, it’s an easy trip.

Questions
Questions from Nixa business owners
Do you meet clients in Nixa?
Zoom first, since that’s the fastest way to get eyes on your QuickBooks file. I do sit down with clients in person now and then when it helps, and Nixa is an easy trip from Ash Grove for a training session or a first look at the paperwork.
My builder books are a mess mid-season, when do we start?
Now. Waiting for the slow season just means more months to rebuild later. I rebuild the past months while keeping your current months clean, so the mess stops growing the day we start.
Christian County or Greene County, does it matter?
Not for the books. I work in both counties, and with businesses in other states the same way. Most of it runs through QuickBooks Online and Zoom, so the county line never comes up. It can matter for local licenses and filings, and I’ll flag anything I see in your file.
