Campbell, Myers & Rutledge

What Campbell, Myers & Rutledge does

Campbell, Myers & Rutledge, PLLC is a full-service certified public accounting firm headquartered in Glasgow, Kentucky, operating since 1945 and organized under its current name in 1980. The firm offers three core service lines: Tax Services (preparation and planning for individuals, estates, and businesses including LLCs, S-Corporations, and Non-Profits), Accounting Services (compilation, review, and audit engagements on an ongoing or special-needs basis), and Payroll and Bookkeeping Services (including payroll check preparation, payroll tax returns, remote time entry, and remote check printing via internet-based systems).

The firm serves approximately a dozen vertical segments, including agriculture, construction contractors, healthcare providers, attorneys, educational institutions, governmental entities, non-profit organizations, utilities, restaurants, retail, wholesalers, and pharmaceutical companies. Its client base is concentrated in south-central Kentucky, with engagements delivered through direct in-person and remote interactions from its single office at 410 South Broadway.

The business model is traditional professional services: fee-based engagements with undisclosed pricing, sales-led go-to-market, and client acquisition primarily through referrals and long-term relationships. The firm employs roughly 12 people — three partners (Cindy Greer, Brent Billingsley, Joe Rutledge), one consultant (Skip R. Campbell), three staff CPAs, and six support staff — with revenue mechanics tied to engagement hours, recurring tax-season work, and ongoing payroll retainers.
