Everything Houston businesses need.
Pick one. Bundle them all. Most clients combine monthly bookkeeping with payroll, Texas sales tax filings, and annual franchise tax.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Categorization, reconciliation, clean reports — done in QuickBooks, Xero, FreshBooks, or Wave.
Payroll
W-2, 1099, multi-state if you have remote staff. TWC unemployment compliance handled.
Texas Sales Tax
Multi-city nexus tracking across Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery. Out-of-state? We've got that too.
Tax Prep + Franchise Tax
Federal returns, K-1s, 1099s. Annual Texas Franchise Tax Report & PIR included.
Tax Planning
Year-round strategy to reduce liability — entity structure, S-corp elections, retirement plans.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Six months behind? Twenty-four? We've seen worse. We'll get you current and audit-ready.
Texas-aware bookkeeping.
Real humans on every account.
National firms treat you like a number. Small local shops disappear when their one bookkeeper takes vacation. We're built differently.
Texas-specific expertise
We file your annual Texas Franchise Tax Report and PIR, handle multi-city sales tax across the Houston metro, know oil & gas accounting cold, and understand the realities of TWC compliance for Texas employers.
Three layers of review on everything
AI handles the repetitive work. Your staff specialist checks it and handles edge cases. Senior management or our in-house CPA signs off before anything is finalized. No single point of failure, no "trust us" black box.
Multi-platform specialists
QuickBooks Online & Desktop, Xero, FreshBooks, Wave, Sage. We work where you already do — your books stay where your CPA, lender, and tax software expect them.
Texas business hours
Your dedicated team is available during CST. Same-day responses on weekday messages. No outsourced call centers, no 3am email chains.
Right-sized for your business — and scales with you
Whether you're a one-person shop, an owner-operator with a small team, or a multi-entity company outgrowing your last firm, we scope every engagement to where you actually are. As you grow, your team stays the same — we scale alongside you instead of handing you off to a different tier.
Built to scale with your business.
Whether you're a solo founder finally getting your books in order or a multi-entity company outgrowing your last firm — we'll show you what life looks like with Yesler running your back office.
- Same dedicated team as you grow
- Free Portal walkthrough
- Month-to-month, cancel anytime

We switched from a national firm that treated us like a number. Yesler actually knows our business — and they understand Texas franchise tax better than our last CPA. Monthly close used to be a fire drill. Now it's just done.
