Services and Pricing

One firm. Five packages. A licensed CPA behind every one.

Mantle is an accounting, tax, and advisory firm — and the practitioner you meet is the one who owns your work and answers for it. You're not a file passed down a chain; you're a business a Mantle partner knows by name. That's what working with us feels like — a real partner who's in it for the long haul.

Five packages, built around what businesses actually need. Don't fit one cleanly? We'll build you a custom one. And we work month-to-month-no contracts, no lock-in. We earn your business every month or we don't deserve it.

The core comes first.

Plenty of advisors sell strategy on top of books that don't hold up — impressive on a slide, useless the moment a number gets questioned. We start with the foundation: clean, accurate books and your taxes filed right, on time, every year. Advice is only as good as the numbers under it, so we get those right first.

We don't stop at the books.

On the flip side, plenty of firms just keep the books and stop there — no advice, no planning, no one looking ahead. We do both. On top of clean books you get proactive tax strategy — the moves that lower your bill planned before year-end, not flagged after it's too late — plus a CPA actually thinking about where your business is going.

New business setup

Starting something? We pick the right entity, handle the EIN and elections, and set the books up clean from day one — so you're not unwinding mistakes come tax time.

Catch-up bookkeeping

Behind a few months or a few years? We'll get you current and tax-ready, then keep you there. The faster you stop guessing, the faster the business starts answering you.

QuickBooks setup & cleanup

On the wrong software, or set up wrong? We get QuickBooks (or Xero) clean and built around how your business actually runs — so the numbers mean something the day you open them.

Entity & tax structuring

LLC, S-corp, C-corp, or a holding-company setup as you grow — the right structure quietly saves thousands a year and shields what you've built. We map it out and handle the elections — the kind of planning people usually see a tax attorney for.

Strategic tax planning

One real conversation before you act — the entity election, how you pay yourself, timing a big purchase. A flat fee for a straight answer, no full engagement required.

Owner & family tax strategy

Your business and your family money are connected — how you're paid, what goes into retirement, when family members go on payroll, how you build wealth out of the business. One strategic session that looks at the full picture and shows you the moves that quietly save thousands every year.

Succession & exit planning

When you're ready to sell, pass it to family, or step back, the tax bill on the way out can swallow years of work. We plan the exit early — how the deal's structured, who pays what, how to keep more of what you sell.

IRS notice response

Got a letter or a notice you weren't expecting? Send it over — we deal with the IRS so you don't have to.
Why each level exists

Year-Round Tax

The return is the easy part — anyone can file what already happened. The money is in the decisions you make before the year closes: how you're paid, when you buy, which election you're under. Most owners only talk to a tax person in April, when every one of those moves is already locked. We work it the other way — all year, before the deadlines that actually count — so you file the best version of your year instead of just reporting it.

The Books

Most owners run a real business off their bank balance and a gut feel — not because they're careless, but because no one ever gave them numbers they could actually use. Clean books change that. Everything else builds on a solid foundation, and it's the fastest way to go from guessing to knowing.

Books & Taxes

There's no magic in a tax return done in March — the year's closed and the bill is what it is. Real tax savings come from working it all year: timing the equipment buy, setting owner pay right, making moves before December 31. And since we already keep your books, your tax strategy and your numbers talk to each other all year long — no shipping a packet off to a stranger in February.

The Controller

Once the financial operation gets big enough to eat your week, the answer isn't another part-time hire — it's handing the whole back office to people who run it for a living. We come in, assess what's there, streamline it, and transform it so it scales with the business. Your hours go back to running the company, not running its operations.

The CFO

Every quote is free. We sit down with you, ask the right questions, and walk through where your business stands today. You leave the conversation with a clear picture of what proper financial support would cost for a business your size — and what it would look like in practice.

From there, you pick the level that fits. A flat monthly fee, a clear scope, and the freedom to move up as the business grows. No hourly meter, no surprise invoices — just a straightforward engagement with everything spelled out upfront. When you compare what's actually included, our pricing tends to come in well below firms offering less — and well below the corporate alternatives where you rarely meet the people doing the work.
