Associated Business Consultants has been interpreting numbers for Texas owners since 1989. We are deliberately small, deliberately local, and deliberately the same faces year after year.
We started with a ledger, a phone and a handful of contractors who
couldn’t get a straight answer out of their accountant. That’s still the
brief: give the owner a straight answer, backed by reconciled numbers, early enough to do something about it.
Over thirty-five years we’ve closed books through three recessions, two tax overhauls and a pandemic. What survived all of it is a simple
operating rule accuracy first, then speed, then everything else.
Today the practice covers bookkeeping, payroll, tax, e-filing, controller
services and advisory work. It’s all one team, one file and one number
to call.
Founded as a two-person bookkeeping practice serving Austin contractors and restaurants.
Federal and Texas franchise tax preparation brought in-house so clients stopped juggling providers.
Full payroll processing launched after a decade of watching clients struggle with quarterly filings.
The whole client base moved to cloud ledgers, cutting close times from six weeks to ten days.
Formal financial consulting practice added for pricing, lending and exit decisions.
Serving hundreds of owner-operated businesses across Austin, San Antonio and Houston.
