What stands out most about Sound Advice Bookkeeping is that, even after raising $19 million in venture capital, we’ve never needed to hire an in-house bookkeeper or finance professional. We’ve outsourced our entire finance function to them, and they manage everything seamlessly—taxes, bookkeeping, accounting, fractional CFO services, and more. Whether it’s adding a subsidiary in a new country or conducting a sales tax nexus study, they’ve got it covered. We’re continually impressed by the extensive range of services they provide.

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

We are SLIK. We ask more of technology. To help innovative brands find their edge.

We were founded by a couple of creatives with a love of all things digital. That tells you a lot. Today, we’re an award-winning group of creatives, technologists and storytellers. We believe in craft. We ask more of technology. We don’t like getting too comfortable. And we threw the agency rule book out a while ago—giving our clients access to the creative process. It’s our way, and it works.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Sound Advice Bookkeeping is our full-service accounting company that assists us with tax processing, payroll management, and financial tracking and analysis.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

After our prior firm merged, Sound Advice Bookkeeping became our accounting firm. I was naturally a little anxious because we were so satisfied with our former firm, but I'm delighted to say that I'm *ecstatic* with Sound Advice Bookkeeping. 

The team as a whole is committed, laser-focused, and incredibly helpful. Jason, in particular, is unstoppable; he treats our business and finances as though they were his own, always seeking out new methods to present our financials, uncover fresh perspectives, and assist us in making the best choices. To be able to rely on their experience and have this team on our side makes me very glad and, to be honest, relieved.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They're very dependable and always provide prompt answers to inquiries or requests. I'm sure they'll be there for me whenever I need them or have questions.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The thing that most impresses me, I believe, is how much everyone actually cares about our business and success. Everyone, and Jason in particular, handles our finances, goals, and efforts with the same attention and care that they would if it were their own business, which is priceless, as I said in a previous note.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Sound Advice Bookkeeping could have done differently?

Nothing I've come across.
