Why do Minneapolis companies hire a CMA instead of a bookkeeping mill?
Minneapolis companies deal with downtown professional-service complexity, multi-entity structures, and staffing markets that make a senior accountant hard to hire quickly. Kim Lueck founded the practice in 2013 after more than two decades in business accounting, and still takes work that ranges from owner-managed books to departmental projects inside larger firms.
Minneapolis owners, controllers, and staffing partners who need a CMA-credentialed accountant for ongoing books or a defined project—not a call-center bookkeeping brand.
What accounting problems show up in Minneapolis first?
Downtown and near-downtown files usually break on close calendar, aged receivables, or a vacant senior seat—not on missing bank feeds. We stabilize the Minneapolis entity you name, keep professional-service or operating-company books usable, and take project work that has to finish on a downtown timeline instead of waiting out a recruiter.
- Professional-service and operating-company books
- Month-end close when staff is out or the team is thin
- AP/AR cleanup that restores cash visibility
- Project work that has to finish on a downtown timeline

How does a Minneapolis engagement start?
Book a consultation and name the Minneapolis entity—or entities—and whether the file is current. We ask for accountant-user access to QuickBooks or the ERP, confirm the last good close, and propose catch-up then a monthly cadence, or a defined close or project. You keep the subscription; Kim’s practice works inside it.
Do you offer accounting services in Minneapolis proper?
- Yes. Minneapolis is a primary market. Schedule a consultation and we will scope bookkeeping, AP/AR, close, cost, or project work to your entity.
Can you work in NetSuite or SAP, not only QuickBooks?
- Yes. Kim has experience with NetSuite, SAP, Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics GP, Sage Fixed Assets, RFMS, M-1, Quicken, and QuickBooks.
How do we start if the books are behind?
- We start with a consultation, then a scoped catch-up: reconcile, reconstruct missing periods, and only then lock a monthly cadence.
Are you a CPA firm for Minneapolis tax returns?
- We prepare books and year-end files so tax work is ready. The practice is accounting operations and project support, including tax-season preparation of the records.
