Resort-town bookkeeping built for how Whitefish actually earns — seasonal swings, short-term rentals, hospitality, and contractors. We handle the reconciliations and reporting so you can run your business through every season, not just survive tax time. Run by an operator who's actually run businesses, not just advised them.
Running a business in Whitefish means living with the calendar — packed lodges and full restaurants one month, quiet streets the next. AJM Consulting keeps your books steady through all of it, so the busy season builds a reserve instead of disappearing into the slow one.
We're based in Kalispell, about 15 minutes down the road, and we serve Whitefish businesses both in person and remotely across Flathead County. Whether you manage a handful of vacation rentals near the mountain, run a downtown boutique or restaurant, or build high-end homes for the second-home market, we keep your numbers accurate, current, and ready whenever you need them.
Whitefish is one of Montana's premier resort towns, and its economy is driven by tourism and hospitality, short-term and vacation rentals, restaurants, retail, Whitefish Mountain Resort, real estate, and construction. We tailor your bookkeeping to those realities — including per-property income tracking for rentals and job-costing for contractors, which our founder understands first-hand from years in construction and roofing.
Transactions recorded and categorized every month, so your books stay current through peak season and shoulder season alike.
Income and expenses tracked per property, payouts reconciled, and lodging/resort taxes kept organized for Airbnb & VRBO hosts.
See what each season truly earns so you can save during the rush and plan with confidence through the quiet months.
QuickBooks Online set up right — with class or location tracking for multiple units — or cleaned up if it's a mess.
Restaurants, boutiques, and service businesses kept tidy — tips, inventory, and merchant fees handled the right way.
Track profit by project, not just overall — built for Whitefish's builders and the second-home construction market.
If a packed ski or summer season left your books months behind, or your rental income is tangled across platforms and accounts, that's our most common starting point. We'll catch you up, untangle the mess, separate income by property, and put a simple monthly process in place so the next busy season doesn't bury you again.
National bookkeeping apps and 1-800 services don't understand a town where half the year's revenue can arrive in a few peak weeks, where a single owner might run three rental units and a café, or where lodging and resort taxes need to be tracked separately. AJM Consulting does. You work directly with a local consultant who knows how Whitefish money moves through the seasons.
Being just down the valley means we can meet in person when it matters and stay responsive year-round. When you call, you reach a real person who knows your business by name — not a ticket number in a queue.
Based in Kalispell, serving Whitefish and small businesses throughout the valley and all of Montana — in person locally and remotely statewide.
Free 30-minute consultation. No pressure, no commitment — just a real conversation about your Whitefish business, your seasons, and where you want to take it.
