Phenix City contractors, manufacturers and retailers serving Alabama and Georgia customers can rely on PSG for clean books and CFO guidance that handles bistate complexity.
Phenix City sits in eastern Alabama along the Chattahoochee River, directly across from Columbus, Georgia, and forms part of a bistate metro with a large Army installation nearby. The local economy includes defense support contractors, manufacturers, healthcare providers, retailers and restaurants, along with contractors and home services serving new residential growth. Riverfront parks and nearby whitewater rafting bring visitors, and many businesses serve customers on both the Alabama and Georgia sides of the river.
Businesses in Phenix City often operate across the Alabama and Georgia line, creating multistate payroll, sales tax and licensing questions. Defense support contractors need contract level cost tracking, while contractors need job costing and retailers watch margins closely. PSG keeps books accurate and reconciled, clarifies profitability by job, contract or location, and offers fractional CFO guidance on cash flow, financing and growth planning.
Alabama taxes business income at the state level, and many cities and counties add their own sales taxes and occupational or license taxes. Some jurisdictions administer their own local taxes, so businesses selling across several municipalities need clean records by location.
General information only, not tax advice. Rules change, so confirm specifics with a tax professional.
Yes. We work with Phenix City 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, Alabama 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 Columbus, Auburn, Montgomery, Warner Robins and Macon.

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.
