Backed by 30 years of hands-on industry experience, our mission is to build, repair, and hand back an optimized financial system that is easy for you to maintain.
We are not a day-to-day bookkeeping service. Instead, we anchor your new system directly to your last filed tax return to ensure absolute consistency with your financial history. While we are not CPAs, tax advisors, or tax preparers, we do the heavy lifting to ensure your books are balanced, and ready for your tax professional.
The Core Industries We Support
We bring specialized, real-world context to niche small businesses that standard corporate bookkeepers often misunderstand:
Trucking & Logistics:
Canning, Processing, Small businesses & Specialty Food:
Agriculture & Agribusiness:
We understand owner-operators, fuel tracking, maintenance overhead, and the unique cash flow demands of logistics.
We understand production costs, inventory management, and getting products ready for retail markets.
Leveraging a 30-year agricultural career, we understand the unique economic rhythms of farming, seasonal inputs, and the agricultural supply chain.

LAG Smartbooks is an outsourced, operational bookkeeping service helping small to midsize businesses, backed by a background in agriculture, owner-operator trucking and small business experience. QuickBooks Online is the sole bookkeeping platform used. Setup, catch up and keep up is the focus of this business. Monthly reconciliation is provided if the client prefers continued support. I am not a CPA, tax advisor or tax preparer.
“The precision and reliability of LAG Smart Books has transformed our financial operations. Their expertise in QuickBooks Online has provided the clarity we needed to grow our trucking business with absolute confidence.”
