Samantha Christensen, Head Chef, Sweet Red Bistro, says this about using Alas Bookkeeping + Consulting services:

"Whether you're a small business starting out or have been running for a while, chances are you haven't found better additions to your organizational team than Zach and Audrey. When working with these two, I was constantly impressed with their innovation and ability to work in restrictive circumstances.

I've seen Audrey take actual totes full of loose invoices, receipts, payroll documents, monthly bills, leases, and shape them into easily findable, accessible, and coherent ledgers. Do you need a budget set up, or a way to figure out how to balance your expenses versus your profit? Audrey's your girl. Follow her advice, and you'll be in a secure and monetarily sensible place that will put your mind at ease. She is always ready to do the right thing, and if something isn't working within the confines of your needs, she will make adjustments as necessary.

Inventory is... well if you've dealt with it then you know what it is. Somehow, the task of making sure you have what you need, and not too much of it generally ends up on one person - a person who probably already has a lot of other things on their plate. Nothing can be more frustrating than finding out there's a hole in your supplies in the middle of a busy work day, especially when you just ordered that thing… how long ago was it? Zach can fix those problems. Finding ways to easily document which products come and go the fastest and where there may be loss and how to prevent it is one of Zach's super powers. Talk about efficiency; even the most finicky point of sale software is no match for his problem solving abilities. Having worked for a few small businesses, I know that bookkeeping and inventory management are some of the most stressful parts of keeping a business running. They're also the least thought about by your employees and customers and can often get pushed to the wayside, which can eventually render some pretty serious consequences. Let Zach and Audrey help you with those problems - either before they get started or before they get worse.

They're both easy to work with, personable, and willing to do what it takes to get things running smoothly and correctly. Not only all those great things I mentioned before, but they're also fun and get along with just about everyone! You won't regret using their services one bit."
