Introduction to Creator Tax & Bookkeeping
As a digital creator, you monetize your passions through platforms like YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, Substack and OnlyFans. With income coming from many sources and states, compliance and financial management get complicated. Our specialized tax and bookkeeping services ensure you’re compliant with IRS regulations, manage multi-state filings, and get the deductions you deserve.
Why Creators Need a Specialized Accountant
Traditional accounting firms often don’t understand the nuances of content creation and influencer revenue. We help creators recognize income from ad revenue, sponsorships, affiliate commissions, merchandise and subscription platforms. We separate business and personal expenses, ensure you pay the right quarterly taxes, and help you choose the right business structure (LLC, S-Corp or sole proprietorship).
Our Services
- Bookkeeping: monthly reconciliation of all revenue streams (YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, OnlyFans), expense categorization and P&L reporting.
- Tax planning & filing: quarterly estimated taxes, year-end returns, multi-state filing, and strategies to minimize tax liabilities.
- Expense management: track equipment, home office, travel, production costs and legitimate write-offs.
- Payroll & contractor payments: manage W2 wages for your S-Corp and 1099 payments for editors, photographers and collaborators.
- Compliance & representation: handle IRS or state correspondence and represent you during audits.
Our Process & Engagement Model
We start with an onboarding call to understand your content platforms, income channels, and current accounting setup. We then build a customized chart of accounts, connect your platforms and bank feeds, and deliver monthly financial statements. Throughout the year we meet to review profitability, advise on upcoming purchases, and adjust your tax strategy as your channel grows.
Benefits for Creators & Digital Businesses

Pricing & Packages
We offer tiered packages—Starter, Growth and Pro—priced per month. Each includes bookkeeping, quarterly tax reviews, and email support; higher tiers add tax filing, payroll and strategic consultation.
