Starting and running your own business is exhilarating and liberating. But that liberating feeling can quickly disappear with the daunting list of tasks required to build and grow a successful business. Tasks like naming the business, creating a logo, writing the business plan and detailed marketing strategy draw heavily on your creative and fun side. But it is the implementation of key pieces like the management of staff, and the controlling of finances that will ultimately determine the success of your business.

In a bid to save money and time, some small business owners manage their finances by doing the bookkeeping themselves instead of handing these critical responsibilities to a professional. The result tends to validate the saying ‘penny wise, pound foolish’.

Established by Kim Freestone, a bookkeeper and QuickBooks Pro Advisor based in Toronto, Freestone Associates has been in operation for more than a decade, specializing in bookkeeping and managerial accounting for small and growing businesses in the Greater Toronto Area. Prior to starting her practice, scores of successful freelance assignments led Kim on the path of continuous development from basic bookkeeping to providing valuable business advisory services. 

Season’s Greetings from Freestone Associates. We wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year 2022!
