Bookkeeping for Tribeca Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and payroll for Tribeca businesses. NYC-based accountant serving Lower Manhattan's restaurants, agencies, and professional service firms.
Bookkeeping for Tribeca
Tribeca is one of the most expensive neighborhoods in Manhattan, and the businesses here reflect that. High-end restaurants on Greenwich Street, creative agencies in converted lofts, production studios, boutique professional firms. These are real businesses pulling in real revenue, and most of them don’t have an in-house accounting team to match.
We provide small business bookkeeping from the Bronx for businesses across Manhattan, Tribeca included. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, invoicing, and catch-up work for books that have gotten away from you. Poly has worked across every borough throughout her career, from Baruch College in Midtown to corporate accounting roles in Manhattan. The quality of work doesn’t change based on where your office sits.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Monthly Bookkeeping
Transactions categorized, bank and credit card accounts reconciled, books closed every month. Full-service bookkeeping that gives you financial statements you can actually read and trust, delivered on time without you thinking about it.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
A few months behind or a few years, we’ve seen both. We sort through what’s there, reconstruct what’s missing, and deliver clean books you can work from going forward. This is how most client relationships start.
Payroll
Payroll
Pay runs processed, tax deposits made, quarterly filings handled, year-end W-2s issued. New York payroll has its own set of requirements and we manage all of it so you don’t have to track the deadlines yourself.
Invoicing and Bill Payment
Invoicing and Bill Payment
For agencies and service firms billing clients regularly, we handle accounts receivable and accounts payable. Invoices go out, payments get tracked, bills get paid on schedule. You stop chasing checks and managing vendor deadlines.
Tribeca Businesses We Work With
The Triangle Below Canal went from a warehouse district to one of the most desirable business addresses in New York. But for all the polish, most Tribeca businesses are still small operations. A restaurant with 40 seats and a chef-owner doing everything. A creative agency with a dozen employees and a founder who hasn’t reviewed the financials since winter. A consultant billing hourly and losing track of what’s been collected versus what’s outstanding.
We work with businesses doing anywhere from $50K to a few million in revenue. Big enough that a spreadsheet and a shoebox of receipts stopped working, not so big that they need a full-time controller on payroll. That gap is exactly where we fit.
Restaurants and Bars
Restaurants and Bars
Tribeca has some of the best dining in the city, and every one of those kitchens runs on thin margins. We handle restaurant bookkeeping that covers daily sales reconciliation, tipped payroll, food cost tracking, and NYC sales tax filings so owners know exactly where they stand each month.
Creative and Media Agencies
Creative and Media Agencies
Design studios, production companies, branding firms, digital agencies. Tribeca is full of them. Revenue comes in unevenly, contractors get paid alongside full-time staff, and project profitability is hard to see without clean books. We bring clarity to all of it.
Professional Services
Professional Services
Consultants, attorneys, financial advisors, architects. Solo practitioners and small firms billing for their time. We keep accounts receivable moving, expenses categorized properly, and your financials ready for whatever comes next, whether that’s tax season or a new lease negotiation.
Boutique Retail
Boutique Retail
Independent shops and showrooms along the neighborhood’s side streets. Inventory tracking, seasonal cash flow, sales tax compliance. The record-keeping that keeps a retail business running without the owner spending evenings on QuickBooks.
Frequently Asked Questions
You're based in the Bronx. Why would a Tribeca business work with you?
Because bookkeeping happens on a screen, not across a desk. We work with businesses throughout Manhattan and the five boroughs. Poly went to Baruch in Manhattan and has spent her entire career working in New York City. When you need to meet, we're a train ride away.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $199 per month. Pricing is based on your total monthly expense volume. We give you a flat rate after a short conversation about your business.
Do you work with restaurants?
Yes. Tribeca has a strong restaurant scene with tight margins and complex payroll. We handle daily sales reconciliation, tipped payroll under New York rules, and food cost tracking.
Can we meet in person?
Absolutely. Most of our work happens remotely because it's faster and more convenient, but we're happy to meet in Manhattan when it makes sense.
My books are behind. Where do we start?
Right where you are. We do catch-up work to get your books current, then move into monthly service so it stays that way. Most of our clients start exactly like this.
