Stay Ahead of Law Changes & Protect Yourself Against Being Audited: Corporate Transparency Act and Reasonable Compensation

Accounting

How we can help you

The real value in numbers comes in projections, analysis, and business intelligence for proactive decision-making.

Having access to all those things is nearly impossible when you’re always waiting on reliable numbers or questioning the reliability of the bookkeeping. That’s why at Molen & Associates we have expert talent to streamline your accounting and bookkeeping. We give you confidence in the numbers so you can focus on the strategy and move the needle in the business.

How we work

We understand the frustration in having an inefficient finance team. If any component is lagging behind it slows down the entire team. That’s why we built a network of highly-vetted, skilled accountants and bookkeepers. This is extremely important if you are a solo-preneur or have a small team where each member is wearing multiple hats.

With Molen & Associates, you can plug in talent on a regular basis to assist with Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Payroll, and more. If you have a one-off project, our talent can step in there, too! It’s the best of all worlds: you have access to talent when you need it and the flexibility to keep things moving.

We prioritize matching you to the right talent so the experts on your team can focus on the highest-leverage activity. We can connect you with a professional who understands your industry.

What do you really want?

We are not naive. We know accounting, bookkeeping, payables, payroll—you name it—is not what you really want. 

You want a healthy business. 
You want profitability.
You want consistent, predictable growth. 

That’s what we want for you, too. And we know that only happens when you have solid data at your fingertips. More importantly, that can only happen when the business leaders have that information at their fingertips and are able to use it for higher-level decision-making. You went into business because you have a vision or passion for something that probably isn’t accounting – so focus on your strengths!

We see too many business executives and finance experts drowning in bookkeeping and accounting adjustments and reports. This minutiae is not only a terrible use of time, but it also robs you of the strategy, forecasting, and projecting your business needs to thrive.

At Molen & Associates, we want to see your business thrive. So we bring the right talent to the table to give you the confidence and speed you need to grow.

PAssionately Engaged

We aren't your average tax firm. We specialize in helping you maximize your tax situation and live more comfortably.

Education Focused

We guarantee you will learn something new. If you are looking for an average experience, we probably aren't the firm for you.

Feels Likely FamiLY

We started business 40 years ago out of the Molen's home and to this day, we still treat our clients like family.
