Running a small business means wearing a lot of hats. Between serving customers, managing employees and keeping operations moving, bookkeeping can quickly become one more thing competing for a business owner’s time.

For Lynn Davis, owner of Davis Bookkeeping LLC, helping business owners get that time back is what her work is all about.

Based in Missoula’s Northside neighborhood, Davis Bookkeeping provides bookkeeping and financial reporting services designed to help businesses stay organized, understand their numbers and make better decisions.

Taking bookkeeping off your plate

Lynn is a certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor with experience as both a business owner and an operations manager. That combination gives her an understanding of the challenges business owners face beyond the numbers themselves.

“I know first-hand how difficult it can be to keep up with bookkeeping as the business grows or experiences staffing shortages,” Lynn shared.

Davis Bookkeeping offers monthly bookkeeping, payroll support, financial reporting, bookkeeping cleanup and catch-up services.

Whether a business needs help getting its books back in order or wants dependable ongoing support, Lynn’s goal is to make financial management less overwhelming.

Better information. Better business decisions.

One of the things Lynn emphasizes is that bookkeeping should do more than keep records organized.

Accurate monthly financial reporting can help business owners see what’s happening in their businesses and make more informed decisions.

As a former business owner and operations manager, Lynn understands how valuable that information can be when making decisions about spending, staffing, efficiency and growth.

Her mission is straightforward: help local businesses grow and thrive by taking bookkeeping off their plates.

A personal approach to helping others

There’s more to Lynn than bookkeeping.

One thing people might not know about her? She completed a Peace Walk across Italy, following in the footsteps of Saint Francis.

She also credits her mother as a major inspiration in her life.

“She said you can do anything if you set your mind to it,” Lynn recalled, a lesson that has influenced many of her experiences and contributions.

That outlook carries into the way she approaches her business and the Missoula community.

Lynn describes Missoula as a warm, engaged and uniquely connected community. It’s a place where she enjoys being of service and helping others succeed.

A free opportunity for local business owners

To introduce her services, Davis Bookkeeping is offering a free 30-minute bookkeeping review and consultation for business owners who would like to discuss their needs.

Whether you’re behind on bookkeeping, need help with payroll or simply want to understand your financial picture better, it’s an opportunity to explore what support might be useful.

And Lynn has a simple message for Missoula business owners:

“I am here to help you thrive.”
