After keeping books for over 15 years and owning a small business herself, Diane Starks knows it’s easy for new entrepreneurs to lose track of their finances in the early stages of growth. Often, their emphasis is on developing their product or service, and regular financial accounting is simply overlooked.

Diane founded AD Bookkeeping with a heart for small business owners, non-profits, and churches. She knows how important it is to keep finances in line when trying to grow and maintain a successful business.

Whether an organization is applying for a loan, a grant, or paying employees and taxes, they’ve got to have their books in order. Good financial organization makes successful growth possible.

AD Bookkeeping currently assists clients with daily financial transactions, invoicing, bank reconciliation, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and monthly reporting.

Diane is looking forward to the growth of AD Bookkeeping. She’s planning to use her $500 grant for marketing to attract customers and grow her client base. In the future, Diane plans to hire 2-3 additional employees to provide full-service bookkeeping to businesses, churches, and non-profits. She knows firsthand how a clean, well-managed start can help organizations succeed over the long-term.
