A Pittsburgh based accounting firm focused on small business —

Outsourced Accounting. Bookkeeping. Payroll.

The outsourced accounting department your business needs now.

Fully Outsourced Accounting

True efficiency is gained by centralizing the functions within one location.

 

Day-to-Day

Bookkeeping with an eye towards making the month-end account more efficient.

Proper Coding

The proper coding of transactions (data) as they come into the system, means less time at month-end organizing transactions, and shifting financial statements.

Data Entry

Better data entry means more accurate and timely financial statements.

The “Castle Rock” way leads to better strategic insight, and allows the client to make informed decisions from increasing historical data.

Those decisions range from:

  • How to maximize tax deductions

  • When TO or NOT TO purchase assets

  • When to add expenses

The result should be a straightforward, painless tax filing process (all the hard work was done during the year).

 Why Castle Rock?

Customer-based accounting, that’s why.

Large firms only care about one thing…THEIR bottomline.

They are:

 

Unaccommodating 👎

❌ You conform to THEIR process.

❌ You conform to THEIR pricing structure.

❌ You conform to THEIR schedule.

Impersonal 👎

❌ Large firms do not take the time to know their clients.

❌ To a large firm you’re just a number on a spreadsheet.

❌ Larger firms do not go the extra mile.

Antiquated 👎

❌ Large firms have a one-size-fits-all mentality leading to inefficiency for both the client and the firm. This is precious time that cannot be regained.

❌ It is harder for their business to change with time.

❌ Larger firms do not like change.

 

As a small business owner or new entrepreneur, you don’t want to conform to someone else and their antiquated pricing structures, or be forced into using software that doesn’t suit your needs. You want a strategic partner that cares about your business. Someone that will help you make sense of the numbers, and provide timely advice and historical analytics on business performance.
