Smart decision making starts with understanding the financial status of the business. Blazej Business is the ideal accounting partner for business owners who:
  • Rely on family or admin staff to handle day-to-date accounting and it’s not working
  • Are preparing to seek funding for expansion
  • Have disregarded standard accounting practices and procedures due to lack of expertise among staff
Blazej Business clients receive accounting oversight plans tailor-made to their businesses: Revenue and expenses will be booked to the proper accounts Accounting procedures will be provided for internal staff Financial reports will be created, verified and explained. Complexities like multiple locations or multiple entities within a single organization will be handled easily. Payroll and benefit payments will be reconciled and compliance will be confirmed. Their project scope is based on client need:  if clients have internal staff, Blazej works with them. If they don’t, Blazej has the team to handle day-to-day transactions.
