We have no junior-level clerks because we understand the quality of bookkeeping services in Santa Barbara depends on the experience and wisdom of each individual on our staff. As a client, you'll benefit from our team's collective expertise and the quality of customer care that enables us to tailor solutions to your business' changing needs, from day-to-day bookkeeping services in Ventura through full-scale controllership.

We are very fortunate to have a first-rate bookkeeping team in Supporting Strategies | Los Angeles. They have done a terrific job with the four accounts they manage for us, and they adapted very quickly when we recently migrated the books from one of those businesses over to a new accounting platform to better integrate with our CRM software. Managing Director Mark Wald is acting as an indispensable fractional CFO, supporting my role as a strategic CEO to grow my company. My goal is to scale my business 4X in the next few years. This would be impossible without the expert, professional help and counsel that I get from Mark and his world-class team."

Calvin Cummings, MAI, President & CEO Cummings Appraisal Group, Inc., d/b/aValbridge Property Advisors | Los Angeles

I want to let you know how pleased we are with our Supporting Strategies team.
Our Financial Operations Associate is one of the most pleasant controllers I have ever met. She is smart, pays attention to detail and controls, meets commitments and is easy to communicate with. Of course, our Financial Operations Manager is an A+ as well, though we rarely have to talk to her now.
We may be setting up an additional company and will be sure to use your services should it come to pass.
Thanks again to you and your team."

Erik Bogaard, CEO, Task Force Lab

Partnering with Ventura's Emerging Businesses and Industry Leaders
With its warm Mediterranean climate, Ventura is reminiscent of a European seaside village. The Ventura County coastline stretches for over 40 miles, and the area's fertile valley has made it a leading agricultural producer. Point Mugu Naval Base is our largest employer and home of military testing and development. The Port of Hueneme — the only deep-water port between Los Angeles and San Francisco — also plays a large role in the local economy.

Ventura and the surrounding areas boast a variety of arts and cultural activities, including museums and Mission San Buenaventura. Outdoor adventures range from whale watching and kayaking at the beaches and Channel Islands to hiking and horseback riding in the mountains. Visitors and locals enjoy visits to our wineries and breweries and pick fruit and pumpkins from our many farms.

One aspect of starting and running a business that is particularly challenging is accounting operations. One thing I can't recommend enough is, if you don't already have the tactical expertise yourself to record revenue, report and analyze financial results, and prepare for tax compliance, look for an outsourced solution. We have that with Supporting Strategies, and they are phenomenal."
