Fairfield owners in manufacturing, distribution, and financial services get clean books and fractional CFO insight suited to the steady, industrious economy of Butler County.
Fairfield sits in Butler County in southwest Ohio, part of the Cincinnati metro between Hamilton and the northern Cincinnati suburbs. The city has a strong base in insurance and financial services, manufacturing, and distribution, supported by busy commercial corridors and established industrial parks. Small businesses here include precision manufacturers, machine shops, logistics providers, insurance agencies, construction and home services firms, and restaurants and retailers serving the surrounding communities.
Fairfield manufacturers and distributors need reliable inventory accounting, cost of goods analysis, and margin visibility by product or customer. Insurance and professional firms benefit from accurate commission and revenue tracking, while contractors rely on consistent job costing. PSG maintains current, reconciled books, and our fractional CFOs provide forecasts, budgets, and working capital planning that help owners price effectively, manage suppliers, and invest in growth across the Cincinnati region.
Ohio uses a Commercial Activity Tax on gross receipts instead of a corporate income tax, and most cities levy a municipal income tax on wages and net profits. Employers must withhold for the correct municipality.

Yes. We work with Fairfield companies through a dedicated team that is entirely US based, combining Big Four accounting experience with years of operating experience across industries. Your team closes the books on a regular schedule, works inside the accounting tools you already use and looks at your numbers the way an operator would, not just a bookkeeper.
Typically bank and card reconciliations, accounts payable and receivable, payroll support, Ohio sales tax tracking and monthly financial statements you can act on. Growing companies can add fractional CFO support for forecasting, budgeting and cash planning.
Usually when decisions start to outgrow the books: raising capital or bank financing, opening a new location, making key hires, tightening margins or preparing for a future sale. A fractional CFO adds forecasting and strategic guidance without the cost of a full time executive.
We also work with businesses in Hamilton, Middletown, Cincinnati, Covington and Kettering.

Hi! I'm Sam, a financial leader who's managed operations from startups to $40M enterprises.
I've led licensing deals with Disney, Marvel, and Viacom, while overseeing products across 35,000 retail stores. Through SHK Financial, I've helped 15+ high-growth companies succeed, including recovering $2M in receivables for a major client and rebuilding a $10M ARR company's accounting system in 6 months. Now, as Chief Accounting Officer at PSG, I oversee 50+ revenue streams and help launch many successful 8-figure businesses.
My journey started uniquely - while studying finance at Fresno State, I taught both chess and accounting to students, teaching me that success in finance, like in chess, is all about strategic thinking and seeing several moves ahead.
