History
Kingston’s Best Bookkeeping started out as a small home-based business. The owner worked in the accounting industry for a number of years and could see that there was a high need in the Kingston area for quality bookkeeping and accounting services. There are so many great bookkeepers in the city however most were at capacity and unable to take on anyone new, so business owners have been hiring people who lack experience. In the end these business owners end up spending more money in accounting fees to make up for the errors made by inexperienced bookkeepers. The goal of Kingston’s Best Bookkeeping is to ensure that all client needs are met with professionalism, accuracy and efficiency.
