Lynn is a North Shore city in Essex County, just north of Boston along Massachusetts Bay. Historically known as a shoemaking center and for its long aerospace manufacturing tradition, Lynn today combines industrial suppliers with a diverse small business community shaped by Latin American, Caribbean and Southeast Asian residents. Owners run restaurants, bakeries, auto repair shops, construction and cleaning companies, salons and retail storefronts, while the waterfront and downtown are seeing new residential and mixed use development.
Contractors and trades firms need job costing and reliable payroll, and industrial suppliers require inventory and production cost tracking. Restaurants and retailers must control food and labor costs, sales tax filings and daily cash. PSG keeps Lynn businesses on a regular monthly close, simplifies reporting so owners can see what drives profit, and adds fractional CFO support for financing, pricing and expansion decisions.
Massachusetts levies a state income tax, a corporate excise, and a statewide sales tax, plus paid family and medical leave contributions. Detailed payroll records and timely filings keep growing businesses compliant.
General information only, not tax advice. Rules change, so confirm specifics with a tax professional.
Yes. We work with Lynn 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, Massachusetts 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 Peabody, Salem, Revere, Malden and Chelsea.

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.
