Trusted by retailers of all sizes

Making the change to using Ascend Bookkeeping has been huge for me. The level of detail I can get out of my business now is far greater than ever before. The planning that I do with my bookkeeper is invaluable to me, as I can see what's ahead and get ready for it as opposed to just reacting to it as it occurs. Starting to use bookkeeping has been one of the best decisions I've made to better my business in a long time.

She has taken a huge load off of our plate that allows us to focus on running the business without the fear that we are missing something. Having a bookkeeper with industry knowledge and experience also helps us when making plans to address areas of concern that arise. We would HIGHLY recommend Ascend Bookkeeping to any small shop owner.
