You can’t grow a business on guesswork.
Your books can’t be an afterthought if you want clarity, cash flow, or confidence. But you also don’t have to overhaul everything at once—or do it all alone.
You don’t need perfect books. You need support you can count on—month after month.
It’s not that you’re not trying. Maybe you’re keeping up the best you can—or maybe you’ve been putting it off entirely. Either way, the result is the same: crossed fingers, foggy numbers, and no clear path forward.
But the truth?
That kind of bookkeeping keeps you reactive—not ready. It fills out forms, but doesn’t support decisions.
What if your books actually helped you run your business—not just check a compliance box?
That’s not wishful thinking. That’s what we do here.
We help service-based business owners understand their numbers, make smarter decisions, and finally feel like they’re leading their business—not just reacting to it.

Hi, I’m Katie.
Bookkeeper, strategist, and forever believer in clear, calm financial support.
I started Brighten Bookkeeping Co. because I kept seeing brilliant, hardworking business owners stuck in a fog of crossed fingers and financial uncertainty.
They weren’t doing anything “wrong”—they were just doing it alone. And the support they could find was either too generic to be useful, too cold to feel collaborative, or too focused on compliance to offer any real clarity.
After nearly two decades in the bookkeeping world, I knew something had to shift. I’d seen firsthand how much stress, second-guessing, and scattered energy came from trying to lead a business without truly understanding the numbers behind it.
Brighten was built as the answer to that.
Today, I help service-based business owners across Canada turn their books into a decision-making tool, not just a task list.
So they can run businesses that feel calm, grounded, and clear—not just “caught up.”
