FAQs

Kelly work with clients that are big enough to know that they need an accountant, but are too small to have one on staff. Potential consequences stemming from poorly maintained books, such as mis-recorded transactions or the lack of reconciliations, and inefficient systems, can have disastrous effects for managers that need to manage cash flow, comply with third-party requirements, and pay their teams.
