Helping, growing, empowering & connecting small business owners
Cara Stevens
Co-founder & Co-owner
​
Cara comes from a long line of small business owners and got an early start working for family-owned businesses. She worked over 10 years for multi-national investment firms but realized her greatest satisfaction came from working hands-on with small business owners. After starting her family and helping her husband’s law firm implement a new accounting system, she began helping other small business owners with back office support until, organically, her small business flourished.
Lydia Scarlett
Co-founder & Co-owner
​
Lydia began her career as a financial analyst for large corporations, mostly helping department heads with budget planning & performance analysis. She then started her own business specializing in bookkeeping for small businesses. Her inspiration comes from seeing the achievements of fellow boss-owners and the creative autonomy small business ownership affords.
