Nobody started an event company for the joy of reconciling receipts. There are venue holds to confirm, vendor quotes to chase, timelines to protect, and clients waiting on details. The last thing needed is losing evenings figuring out why the ledger won’t match the bank feed.
That’s where the team steps in. Straight Talk CPAs handles the bookkeeping for
event planning and management service businesses, so it’s off the plate. No more spreadsheet stress. No more missing vendor bills. Just clear, organized records that actually reflect the work.
