Most bookkeepers watch your numbers. Elaine watches your back.
Most of her clients are guys who are really good at what they do — grading, concrete, building — but the back-end stuff? That’s a different world. Elaine fills that gap. She’s not just reconciling accounts; she’s looking at your P&L, flagging what you’re missing, and making sure your business isn’t quietly bleeding money. She’s been doing it since 1995, and in that time she’s caught two people writing checks to themselves. That’s the kind of eyes-on-your-business you actually want.
Meet Elaine
Elaine Martens has been doing books since before most of her clients were in business. She started in payroll, built her own practice in 1995, and has spent 30 years doing one thing: making sure the people she works with don’t get taken advantage of financially or otherwise.
“I don’t just look at numbers. I look at your whole picture, business and personal. I’m like the mom of your finances.”
What We Do
Bookkeeping
You’re good at making money. The back-end stuff — reconciling accounts, managing payroll, making sure nothing slips through the cracks — that’s where Elaine comes in. She keeps your books clean, catches what others miss, and makes sure you actually know where your business stands.
Financial Advising
When tax season hits and the number is bigger than you expected, most people panic. Elaine’s clients call her instead. She’ll walk you through your options, show you how to structure things smarter, and help you keep more of what you earned — without the guesswork.
Real Estate
Elaine works with builders and sellers who want someone in their corner — not just a transaction. Her husband is a licensed builder who walks every property alongside her, so you’re getting two sets of experienced eyes before anything is signed. If you’re selling or investing, that combination matters.
