Operating a business has many aspects. From…
Generating and preparing accurate and timely financial records mean tight general ledger (GL) management. Using monthly reconciliation and reviews of key accounts, as well as providing and implementing all recommended changes, we create an accurate account of your general ledgers. Our process often includes opening/closing accounting periods, recording accounting activities for the period’s end, accruals, adjustments and closeout. We review and analyze the GL trial balance for abnormal and inappropriate balances or any discrepancies. If any are found, we take immediate actions to correct them. Early Growth’s experts also analyze trial balance relationships and develop controls to ensure the integrity of financial statement data.
Early Growth’s accounting services team makes sure you avoid discrepancies, errors or fraud by tightly reconciling your bank statement to confirm that your transactions align with your balance sheet.
We deliver an accurate assessment of how your spending and revenue generation meet the financial forecasting projections to identify where you are over or under budget, if you can hire additional employees, or shine light on a gross profit margin that’s not line with expectations.
Stay informed on the health of your business with our detailed financial reporting, including income statements and balance sheets, so you’re aware of transactions, cash flow and reconciliations.
“The financial reporting, whether to the government and the taxes we pay or other concerns, was taking away from the innovation of the product and being able to help our customers. Having Early Growth take on that function allowed us to not worry about that, so we could focus on the most important thing, our customers.”

“In addition to giving us things that are crucial to our financial health, Early Growth has been an instrumental strategic partner in our overall success. Their introductions to key people, ranging from intellectual property law firms to fundraising sources and other resources, have been integral in achieving our milestones.”

“I am confident that without Early Growth we never would have raised the capital that we have. They were pivotal to our work with the VC community and, even more importantly, they taught us how to think strategically in order to achieve our goals.”

Co-founder of Origin Materials
“Early Growth has been instrumental in our success. We’d be lost without them. When we had a small team and a small workload, we were self-managing, but then we began taking orders and adding new operating costs. It was evident that we needed to bring on a financial team.”
