Stay organized, file with confidence, and make better decisions every month. We help South Dakota owners replace tax-time chaos with clean books, clear numbers, and a CPA who actually picks up the phone.
If any of these sound familiar, you don't have an accounting problem — you have a missing system. We fix that.
Receipts in a shoebox, categories that don't match reality, and a balance sheet you can't trust.
You can't tell which jobs, services, or seasons actually make money — so you're guessing.
You only hear from your accountant in March, and the answer is always "you owe more than you thought."
Reports show up weeks after you needed them, so you're managing your business in the rearview mirror.
W-2s, 1099s, withholdings, deadlines — every pay run feels like a chance to mess something up.
No monthly rhythm, no benchmarks, no plan. Just hope the bank account stays in the black.
A five-step path from "I think things are okay" to a business you can actually see, understand, and steer.
A 30-minute call to understand your business, pain points, and goals.
We look under the hood — books, tax history, structure, and risks.
A scoped proposal matched to your stage, not a one-size package.
We rebuild your books, tools, and workflows so things finally tie out.
Monthly clarity, year-round tax planning, and a CPA on speed dial.
Everything a small business owner actually needs — under one local roof, with one consistent point of contact.
Clean monthly books, reconciled accounts, and reports you can actually read — delivered on a predictable schedule.
Know your numbers monthlyAccurate pay runs, tax deposits, W-2s, 1099s, and onboarding for new hires. No more payroll surprises.
Pay your team with confidenceSouth Dakota sales tax handled correctly and on time, including multi-jurisdiction and use tax situations.

Keep more of what you earnA strategic partner for pricing, hiring, equipment, financing, and growth decisions that move the business.
Decide with data, not gutWe work best with owners who want a long-term partner — not a once-a-year preparer. If you've outgrown a shoebox and an annual return, you'll feel at home here.
Our practice is intentionally small so we can give every client the attention they deserve, year-round.
I'm Rob Johnson — a licensed CPA, advisor, and clear communicator based right here in Watertown.
After years working with South Dakota contractors, farmers, and owner-operators, I built this practice around one idea: small business owners deserve a CPA who actually understands the business — not just the return at the end of the year. I'll tell you what I see, in plain English, and stick around to help you act on it.
Predictable steps, predictable rhythm, predictable answers. Here's exactly what working together feels like.
Secure document portal, a short questionnaire, and one kickoff call. We do the heavy lifting — you don't dig through files alone.
Scope, deliverables, deadlines, and pricing are written down up front. You'll always know what's next and who owns it.
You get a real person who responds within one business day — not a portal black hole or a different name every email.
We standardize your chart of accounts, software, and document flow so the next month is easier than the last.
Each month you get reconciled books, a short report, and a quick read on what the numbers mean for your next move.
Real feedback from South Dakota owners who finally have a CPA on their side.
