Working together

Clear numbers. Clear communication. A plan for the year ahead.

If you've been managing the numbers yourself or looking for more guidance from your accountant, the next step should feel clear.

  • Understand where you stand

    Tax planning starts with your current picture and the decisions ahead of you, while there's still time to act on them.

  • Know what's needed next

    Clear instructions help you understand what information to gather and when it's needed.

  • Work directly with Christian

    Build a relationship with the person getting to know your business and handling the work.

  • Answers you can rely on

    Christian is a perfectionist about the details. When a question is outside what he knows, he finds the answer instead of guessing.

The best time to plan is before December 31.

Much of what shapes a tax bill is decided during the year. A short conversation now leaves time to act on it.

About

The person you'd actually be working with.

I'm Christian Kimble, the owner of Kimble Accounting. I built the practice around personal attention, clear communication, and helping business owners understand the work we're doing together.

My 5 years in tax cover every scale: local professionals and owner-run businesses, professional athletes and media personalities, and companies with more than $100 million in revenue. I run the practice on my own, and that's deliberate: you work with me, and I keep my client list at a size where each client gets real attention.

The practice is paperless and works just as well over video. If you're local and would rather meet in person, I'm glad to do that too.

More about Christian

How it works

Start with a clear next step.

Tell Christian what you need

A short inquiry in three steps gives him a useful starting point. No documents needed.

Pick a time on his calendar

Right after the form, choose a time for a 15-minute introductory call. You both get a Microsoft Teams link by email.

Agree on the work

When working together makes sense, a consultation defines the scope and a quote. If the full picture changes the work, you'll talk it through first. No surprises.

The introductory conversation is about your business, your needs, and whether a consultation makes sense.

How working together works

Who it's for

Built for business owners ready for their next chapter.

This practice is designed for owners who want to understand their numbers, plan ahead, and hand off tax work through an ongoing professional relationship.

We work best together when information is organized and communication goes both ways. You'll get clear instructions on what's needed next. The practice works digitally, and you don't have to be paperless today to be open to that way of working.

Getting organized is a starting point

If your records need attention, start by identifying what's current, what needs work, and what you want help with. Some situations can begin with a bookkeeping review. Others need a different specialist first.

Questions

Before you reach out.

Who do you work with?
Growing business owners who want to understand their numbers, plan ahead, and hand off tax work to someone they have a direct relationship with. Some have worked with an accountant before and want more guidance. Some have been handling it themselves and the business has grown past that.
What happens on the first call?
It's a 15-minute introductory conversation on Microsoft Teams about your business, what you need, and whether a consultation makes sense. Christian has read your form answers before you talk. It isn't a tax review, so there's nothing to gather beyond your questions.
Do my books need to be perfect?
Your books don't need to be perfect. Reasonably organized books are a good starting point. If they need significant catch-up, a bookkeeping cleanup may be the place to begin, and Christian looks at those individually. The preparation guide on the How it works page can help you sort out where things stand.
Can I start if my records are on paper?
The practice works digitally. If your records are on paper today and you're ready to move to a digital process, that can be a starting point. The preparation guide explains how to take stock of what you have.
How much does it cost?
There's no price list, because pricing depends on complexity, the number of states and the forms involved. After a consultation you get a quote based on what you've shared. Sometimes the full picture only comes into view once the work begins. If that changes the scope, Christian walks you through it before anything changes. No surprises.
Can we meet in person?
Yes, within about 45 minutes of Edwardsville. The practice is paperless, so a Microsoft Teams call works just as well if that's easier for you. Clients outside that area work with Christian on Teams.
What if I need a service you don't provide?
Payroll, sales tax, nonprofit, estate and trust work are outside the services Kimble Accounting provides. The preparation guide on the How it works page describes the kind of professional who handles each one.
