If your company is working with one we are not familiar with, we would love to learn more!

They say variety is the spice of life. We agree! See what our clients from different industries are saying about working with us:

Architecture

"We have been working with Abacist’s Di Edwards for a substantial portion of our more than five year tenure with the company.  She takes care of our financial administrative services which include: accounts payable and receivable, payroll, insurance and banking, cash flow reports and project fee tracking.  Di is bright, proactive, tenacious and efficient and when there are issues of any kind, she comes to us with solutions rather than just reporting a problem.   Di fully embodies the Abacist profile and leave-no-stone-unturned-but-also-have-fun culture established by founder Kaley Walsh.  Abacist continues to be a valuable partner in our day-to-day operations." 

Joe + Karlin, owners – architecture

“Our account manager at Abacist, Di Edwards, is an unbelievable resource for us.  What makes her special is her professionalism and the clear line of communication.  We don’t have to call them to remind them of things, they call us!  Plus, approaching a topic like accounting with a bit of sense of humor always helps.”

Jess, admin/architectural designer – architecture

 

Artists

Abacist has worked out great for my small independent company. Kaley and Di have been very helpful, and that allows me to focus on making money!

CONSTRUCTION

"Kaley is simply phenomenal. Why? Honest, on time, proactive, excellent communicator, enthusiastic and always willing to step in and help whenever necessary. Kaley truly knows what she’s doing. But, even better she knows why she’s doing it. This is critical because she can inform me so that my decisions are easier, quicker and more effective. This leaves me with more time to do what I do best. Kaley is an A player. I am so lucky to have her in my corner..."

Brian, owner – construction

I can't remember how long it has been since Abacist has been doing our books. But I do remember the feeling of relief and constant reassurance that Kaley and now Di Edwards gave our business when we began. Knowing that it is all being taken care of on time, properly and communicated with such kindness and comradery; even when they are giving me a much needed reminder.

Noel, owner - deconstruction

 

Property management

"Kaley has kept books for our Seattle based business since 2016.  While we reside in Colorado, Kaley has been readily available and completely capable of keeping our books in order and us up to date and informed regardless of the physical distance between us.  Kaley has proven to be exceptional at her job.  She has gone through a major transition with us and has been reliable, thorough, knowledgeable, and a consistent pleasure to work with.  We appreciate so much her work ethic, her professionalism, her accessibility and her dedication to excellence.  We would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of bookkeeping guidance and skills.  We are truly thankful she is part of our business management team." 

Kim, owner - property management 

 

retail/wholesale/ecommerce

"Abacist has helped my business stay organized so I can focus on growth. Kaley and her team are most professional and hard working to help my business with its accounting needs. I would recommend Abacist to my friends and family without hesitation."
