Sound Bookkeeping

At Sound Bookkeeping, our mission is to remove the pressure of bookkeeping from your life, allowing you to focus on what you do best. We understand that no one starts a business to deal with paperwork and accounting, but unfortunately, it's a necessary part of running a successful business. That's where we come in.

Our Story

Our story begins with a spontaneous walk in the park with Sarah from Belle and Sebastian. She approached me, a former investment banker, and asked if I could help her band with their bookkeeping. I took on the challenge and quickly discovered that I not only enjoyed it but also found satisfaction in helping others. Word of mouth led to more clients, and soon I was working with musicians, software companies, accountants, dentists, construction companies, and booking agents. I realized that my skills could be used to help people solve a common problem: the pain point of bookkeeping.
