How this outsourced department works
Our Process
the Big Picture
As your new accounting and finance department, Still Water Accounting & Consulting takes a thoughtful, systematic approach to building a long-term partnership with you and your business. Our team works hard during onboarding to get caught up with your existing processes. Depending on the level of service you request, we will start by looking at your past books, build a forecasting model, set up KPIs and do an audit of your financial statements/chart of accounts to make sure we’re all on the same page and getting off on the right foot.
We manage your accounting and finance department remotely and exclusively from our US-based office, using our cloud-based technology platform and best in class workflows.
Allow us to show you how we’ve overcome the day-to-day snags you anticipate would surface by using an outsourced accountant. Prefer face-to-face? So do we. But we also like to save you money, so we must balance the benefits of tremendous talent with the efficiency of remote delivery.
