A small practice, built for seasons. One bookkeeper, all year round.
We work with a small number of businesses across Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley, most of them run by the people who own them. Staying small is how we keep the work careful.
Why a practice for Abbotsford.
I spent ten years inside Canadian accounting firms, first keeping books and later running the bookkeeping function at a mid-sized CPA practice. That is long enough to see where generic bookkeeping goes wrong, and seasonal businesses are near the top of the list: a year-end that lands in the middle of harvest, fuel records spread across three cards and a logbook, a family group where nobody is sure which company paid for the tractor.
Those businesses do not need grand advice. They need a bookkeeper who knows that June and January are different months, that quota is not just another asset, and that a carrier's profit is best read one truck at a time. Abbotsford has a great many of them, which is why this practice is built around it.
Tax returns, audits and planning stay with your CPA. We coordinate the year-end with them directly and hand over books that already agree with the bank.
If that is the help you have been looking for, we would like to hear from you.

Four rules we hold ourselves to.
One file, one person.
The bookkeeper who sets up your books is the one who closes them each month. Nobody new picks up the file halfway through the season.
Honest about the calendar.
Busy months get the same care as quiet ones. If something will be late, you hear about it early, with a date.
Plain words.
Every report comes with an explanation you can act on. If we cannot explain a number, the work is not finished.
A small roster.
We take on the clients we can serve properly and say no to the rest. That is what keeps the work careful.
The land under the work.
We respectfully acknowledge that our work takes place on the traditional and unceded territory of the Stó:lō people, including the Semá:th (Sumas) and Máthxwi (Matsqui) First Nations.
The farms, roads and businesses of this valley sit on land that was cared for long before any of it was surveyed or fenced. Saying so plainly is a small act. We would rather it be a starting point for how we work than a line at the bottom of a page.
Let's see if we fit.
Twenty minutes, no slides. You tell us how the business runs; we tell you plainly whether we are the right bookkeeper for it.
