Expert bookkeeping and financial operations for Chicagoland businesses at $1M+ in revenue. Local team. Flat-rate pricing. Real results.
You're not alone. Most businesses at your stage hit the same wall — and the cost of staying stuck is higher than you think.
You know roughly where the money is. But you don't have real-time visibility into your cash position, your margins, or what's coming next quarter. You're making decisions on instinct instead of data — and it's starting to cost you.
Whether it's a part-time hire, a family friend, or a solo accountant who's stretched too thin, you've felt the cracks. Month-end closes are late. Reports are inconsistent. You're not sure you can trust what you're seeing.
At $1M+ in revenue, your financial operations need to match the ambition of your business. Reactive bookkeeping isn't just inefficient — it creates risk. You need a team, a process, and a system that scales with you.
This is exactly the problem Supporting Strategies was built to solve.
Two experienced Managing Directors. One Chicagoland team. When you work with Supporting Strategies, you work directly with people who are invested in your business — not handed off to a call center.
We handle the day-to-day financial operations so you have accurate books, clean data, and a team that actually picks up the phone.
Your engagement starts with a thorough onboarding — we get to know your accounts, your processes, your pain points, and your goals. No cookie-cutter setup. Your books are managed the way your business actually operates.
Our team handles your day-to-day bookkeeping: transaction categorization, reconciliations, AP/AR, payroll coordination, and month-end close. You'll have a dedicated point of contact who knows your file.
Every month, you sit down with your bookkeeper for a financial review. We walk through your numbers, flag anything that needs attention, and make sure you're always looking ahead — not scrambling to catch up.
Accurate, timely bookkeeping and a complete month-end close process — giving you the financial clarity and dependable foundation required to manage your operations with confidence. Choose the tier that fits your business.
Peace of mind that your books are up-to-date, accurate, and properly maintained.
Gain additional data and details in a monthly accounting review of the numbers.
Get more value and insights from your financial data via complex tracking and management.
Pricing is customized to your business. Supporting Strategies also offers Insights, Compliance, Revenue, Expenses, and People service areas — including controller-level and fractional CFO services. Ask us what's right for your stage of growth.
Our team brings deep, industry-specific experience — not one-size-fits-all bookkeeping. We understand the nuances of your sector because we've worked in it.
Here's what growing business owners say about working with us.
Supporting Strategies has been a great partner in helping us streamline our accounting practices. Their expertise and willingness to learn our processes has been incredibly valuable.
We love our bookkeeper Patty! She did an amazing job cleaning up our books. They were an absolute mess! Even my new accountant was very impressed. He said it made his job easier. Patty is also very professional, friendly, and great with communication. We're so glad we connected with Julyn, the marketing professional because she did a great job helping us identify what we needed and assisted with a seamless onboarding. Thank you Supporting Strategies — I highly recommend!
Hired SS Southland to handle the bookkeeping for our law firm after firing another outside bookkeeper for lack of performance. SS really stepped up and not only has done their job timely and efficiently, but also found and fixed mistakes from the prior bookkeeper. Highly recommend!!!
