Who We Are

Our Story & Background
The founder of Accounting Software for Small Business comes from an academic and professional accounting background, with experience in auditing, bookkeeping instruction, and hands-on software implementation support. Over years of working with small business owners, one challenge stood out: most struggled with accounting software not because they lacked the ability, but because resources were often too technical, too fragmented, or locked behind expensive paywalls.
This website was launched to bridge that gap by offering clear, affordable (often free) tutorials and unbiased reviews specifically designed for small business needs.
