Bookkeeping for Squamish and the Sea-to-Sky
Squamish businesses deal with seasonal swings that city businesses often don't: a busy summer, a quieter shoulder season, and a workforce that changes with it. We work remotely, so being up the Sea-to-Sky changes nothing about how the work gets done.
Common in Sea-to-Sky books
Tourism, outdoor recreation, and hospitality businesses earn much of their revenue in a few months. Monthly books let you plan the off-season: cash runway, deposits taken for future bookings, and seasonal payroll costs are in front of you while there's still time to act on them.
Growth in Squamish has also brought steady demand for trades and construction, much of it working up the corridor toward Whistler. Those businesses need job costing, vehicle records, and subcontractor reporting.

Common questions
Can you work with us if we're outside the Lower Mainland?
Yes. Statements, receipts, and payroll data come in digitally, and reports go out the same way.
How should deposits for future bookings be recorded?
As a liability — unearned revenue — until the trip or service actually happens. Recording deposits as income when they arrive overstates revenue before the busy season and understates it during.
