Accounting that actually helps you decide what to do next.
Hi, I'm Rebekah Bailey. I help Tennessee small business owners clean up their books, file their taxes accurately, and turn monthly numbers into real financial strategy — not just a stack of statements.

Operations ownerManufacturing · Bradley County
I was paying a payroll service and a bookkeeper and a tax preparer who all blamed each other when something went wrong. Rebekah is one phone call. That's it.
FounderProfessional services · Chattanooga
The S-Corp election conversation alone paid for the year of advisory. She walked through the numbers, showed me the break-even, and made the recommendation in plain English.

FAQ
Things people ask before reaching out
Do I need a bookkeeper or an accountant?
A bookkeeper records what already happened — categorizing transactions, reconciling accounts. An accountant interprets it: tax strategy, financial planning, advice on whether to hire or raise prices. KRB does both, and most clients start with bookkeeping and grow into advisory.
Are you a CPA?
Rebekah Bailey holds a PhD in Business Administration, an MBA, and the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) credential, with 25+ years as a Controller and CFO. KRB is not a CPA firm. For attest work — audits, reviews, certifications — we coordinate with a partner CPA. For everything else (books, returns, planning, advisory), KRB handles it directly.
Do you only work with Tennessee businesses?
KRB is based in Tennessee and most clients are TN-based, but the work is largely remote. We can serve clients in any state — federal returns, multi-state apportionment, and remote bookkeeping all work the same regardless of where you sit.
What does a typical engagement look like?
It starts with a free 30-minute consult. From there: a written proposal with scope and pricing, an onboarding call to get access to your books, and a clean monthly cadence after that. You always know what's been done and what's next.
How do you handle pricing?
Most engagements are flat monthly fees so you know what you're paying. Tax filings are quoted up front based on entity type and complexity. No surprise invoices, no hourly billing for quick questions.
