Hi, I'm Cher.

Twenty years of accounting experience and a Certified Canadian Professional Bookkeeper designation earned in 2021. I run NOW Bookkeeping Services out of Kelowna and work with small businesses across the Okanagan Valley.

The shop is 90% cloud-based. That means less paper shuffling for you, faster turnaround on the numbers that matter, and a real human on the other end of the phone when something comes up.

What we do…

Our goal is to help you get to where you want your business to be. Different industries mean different goals and means for tracking costs. Let us review what you currently have in place and move you towards bigger profit margins & more free time for you.

Do you want to hand everything off so you can focus on your business? We can do that. Do you want to know exactly what is going on with timely reporting? We can do that too. Whatever level of support you need, we can work with & around it.

With every business and every industry comes different needs and skills when it comes to finances. Now Bookkeeping will take the needs you have and create a plan that suits your business right now.
