Business Accounting
Picture a month-end without the scramble. Your books are current, payroll is handled, and you open a single report that tells you exactly where cash stands, which clients or programs drive profit, and what needs your attention next.
That is what the Business Accounting Package delivers: daily bookkeeping that keeps your data clean, payroll that runs on time, tax work that stays in motion all year, and CFO level guidance that turns those numbers into next steps.
Instead of reacting to surprises, you walk into every decision with clarity, confident that your financial system is working in the background so you can focus on growth, leadership, and the parts of the business only you can do.

Frequently Asked Questions
We know accounting services can raise a lot of questions. Below are answers to the most common ones, so you can quickly understand our process, approach, and how we support you.
What is a financial strategy session?
A free 30-minute virtual session to discuss your goals, introduce the firm and establish how we can support your organization.
Can you work with our existing bookkeeper or finance staff?
Yes. We often partner with internal staff who already understand your programs and day-to-day operations. We provide CPA-level review, nonprofit accounting structure, and financial strategy so your team has support, and your board gets the clarity it’s been asking for.
Our books are behind, and a bit messy-should we wait until things are cleaned up?
Most leaders come to us feeling some version of “I’m embarrassed by our books.” That’s when outside support is most useful. Our clean-up services will help you move from behind and overwhelmed to caught up and audit-ready. Our ongoing services are mission focused, designed to maintain the structure we create in a clear-up, help you stay on top of your finances, make informed decisions, and drive long-term success.
Are your nonprofit accounting services only for larger organizations?
We primarily serve small to mid-sized nonprofits organisations. During a financial strategy session, we’ll look at your size, funding mix, and goals, and recommend only the level of support that makes sense for where you are now.
What’s the next step if we’re interested?
The best next step is a free financial strategy session. This is an open session to talk through your pressures and priorities, get to understand how our firm operates then determine if we are a good fit.
