RO profit you can trust. Parts, labor, and techs that reconcile. QuickBooks, QuickBooks, fixed fee. Free assessment.
San Antonio rewards steady, family-run operators — and those are exactly the businesses that outgrow a shoebox-of-receipts system without ever meaning to. For auto repair shops across Bexar County — from the Pearl and the downtown River Walk to Stone Oak and Alamo Heights — that shows up as parts purchases, cores, and returns hit the books untagged, so you can’t see real margin per repair order and napa, o’reilly, and worldpac statements disagree with your books and nobody has time to reconcile them
Steven Palmieri works remotely with San Antonio owners in a market defined by tourism, military, and a fast-growing healthcare and bioscience base. We reconcile supplier statements, split parts from labor, and set up categories that match how a shop actually runs. You get a documented before/after trail your CPA can verify — no offshore rush job, no judgment about how far behind the books have slipped.
You're not bad at business. The books just stopped telling the truth about bays and the counter.
Parts and labor never meet cleanly on the RO — so you find out after the car left.
Without clean labor capture, coaching techs is vibes, not management.
Cores, returns, and special orders litter the balance sheet.
Two minutes. No document dump. Just the truth about how behind it feels.
We clean ROs, parts, and labor so every bay has a number worth managing.
Backlog cleared. Accounts reconciled. A before/after report you — and your CPA — can act on.
Shop cleanup built around tickets, parts, and techs — not generic bookkeeping.
Every account reconciled and every anomaly documented before we change a thing.
The backlog cleared with auto repair shop-correct categories — not a generic chart of accounts.
A before/after summary and a simple monthly rhythm so it stays clean after we leave.
If our assessment can’t show you exactly what’s wrong and what it costs to fix, the assessment costs you nothing — no obligation either way.
“Finally handed my CPA a clean QuickBooks file instead of a shoebox.”
“First time I could see which bays actually make money.”
“Two years of supplier statements reconciled before tax season.”
