Amazing job, SmartBean! Special thanks to Michael, Lisa, and Kandria for making the on-boarding process so easy. I'm very grateful to have them as my official bookkeeper, and I really wish I had done it sooner. To any starting business owner, don't skimp early on just because "you can do it yourself," and get yourself a bookkeeper! Get yourself a Smart Bean from SmartBean Inc.! "10/10, Would recommend."

Smartbean has made my life so much easer as a business owner. They were able to seamlessly help me get my books in order for the whole previous year in just a few weeks (and just in time for taxes) Without them I would have been screwed. Additionally, they are always so on top of keeping their clients in the know when it comes to any strategic business advantages. Highly recommend.

I hate doing finances, but I love my bookkeeper(s)!
Honestly finding and working with Lisa and her Smart Bean team was a highlight during crazy 2020. As a small business owner running a food business, keeping track of our expenses and how to categorize them was something I was eager to get off my plate. They created a Quickbooks online account for me and set up my Chart of Accounts, categorized expenses, journaled in transactions...such a timesaver. Especially with PPP and EIDL this past year, they were able to record it in our books in the right place. I'm starting to file my taxes with

I was in the first year of my new solar business and did not have any experience with bookkeeping. Lisa and the team at SmartBean saved the day! Not only are they doing my current bookkeeping activities, but they helped reconcile my activities from the last year. SmartBean provides me with daily insights into my P&L so I know exactly where I stand with my company's finances. If you are looking to simplify your bookkeeping process at a very affordable price, please see Lisa at SmartBean. Thanks!

Lisa, Chloe & the rest of the team at Smart Bean have been supporting my small business for over a year and I couldn't be happier. They are responsive, accurate and will address my questions in a prompt matter. Additionally, Lisa really stepped up to provide valuable information around the PPP program, distilling all of the information in away that was digestible. Really, that's one of the gifts of Lisa, her ability to explain often confusing accounting protocols in a way that a non-accounting person can understand. I highly recommend Smart Bean for bookkeeping.

After 9 years of trying to do my books by myself, I decided to go with Smart Bean. Best decision ever, now I know exactly where my business stands financially, I can set goals and plan strategically how to reach them. For the first time, I'm happy to look at my financial reports. Thank you Lisa, Kim, and all your team.

I was referred to Lisa by a friend, when that friend noticed I was getting a bit overwhelmed by my business. I can't speak any higher of Lisa and her company. Their prices are so reasonable your silly not to use them. You get professional individualized service for the price of a fancy app. Lisa gets invested emotionally with your business and helps give guidance when needed. She has helped guide me through new payroll services, saving me a good amount of Monday. New CPA when my business outgrew my previous tax preparer. And has held my hand through covid-19. Don't even bother shopping

I found one of the biggest challenges to starting my own business was all of the hats I had to wear. I took on all of the jobs myself. When my law practice started to grow, I had to starte delegating tasks so I could focus on business development and legal work. That is where SmartBean came in. As a business owner, I wanted to have my bookkeeping taken care of on a daily basis and I wanted to have access to my accounts. The team at SmartBean is OUTSTANDING! I my books are constantly up-to-date, the team reaches out whenever they have questions, and are always very responsive and professional when

I was recommended SmartBean by my accountant to do catch up bookkeeping for the past year as my small counseling business was finally picking up. I didn't know what it was and Lisa and her staff were very patient and understanding with explaining the process to me while being timely and diligent with sorting out my accounts. Afterwards, they took the initiative and forwarded all the account info to my accountant could help me with calculating estimated taxes. I am looking forward to the new year in working with them and learning on how bookkeeping can help my business. Especially to learn

As a family law attorney/mediator, I have had several occasions arise where I have been able to utilize Smart Bean as a referral for my clients. In both situations we were trying to separate a husband and wife team from a business they co-owned during the marriage. In both instances one of the spouses had handled all of the bookkeeping and financial aspects of the business. By being able to have Smart Bean step in and take over that role (for a fraction of the cost they had been payrolling that spouse, I might add), it was a win-win for everyone and made the division of this asset much more seamless

My husband and I each have a corporation- he builds custom homes and I am a real estate broker. Our bookkeeper of many years retired and we had to find a new one. A business associate spoke glowingly about Smart Bean and the fact that they keep track of my business expenses not quarterly or monthly but DAILY and are very thorough and technologically savvy. But I wanted to go in an meet them in person before they started handling my bookkeeping. My husband and I met Lisa- the Boss Bean- and after that meeting we knew we were in good hands. She and her staff not only know what they're doing

Love this company and all they have done for me and my business. I wanted my time and energy to be taken up with providing services for my clients. So when it came to the back end of my business, which was finances and bookkeeping, that became overwhelming for me. I realized numbers isn't my strength and I think I've always put that pressure on myself to do it all. Smart Bean values me as an individual and as a business and really wants to see me succeed, as well as take care of my accounting. They always have everything reconciled on a daily basis which helps me stay on top of my business

Smart Bean is a dream come true! They've been doing my books for a few months now and I am so glad that I decided to go with them for my bookkeeping needs. Lisa and her team are very thorough and detailed with the service they provide. If something isnt clear they dont guess or "wing it" like a lot of bookkeeping services do, they will take the time to check in with you so they can get the job done correctly, so you aren't left sorting stuff out when it's time to file taxes. I've had bookkeepers in the past that have left me with very broad categories that I had to
