“My father taught me that money is like a tree. When you have little, it’s a seed that needs to be planted in its proper place. If you pluck the leaves too early, the tree will die — but once it’s fully grown, it no longer matters how many leaves you pluck, the tree will provide more than enough for your needs.”
–Anne Cabrera, Principal & Owner

Dedicated to providing practical accounting solutions to small businesses and new entrepreneurs, Sowing Seeds Accounting Services launched in October 2010 in Richmond, BC.

We offer a variety of services ranging from monthly bookkeeping and payroll services to consulting and education services.

We believe that all small businesses and start-ups benefit from the use of an effective, systematic accounting system. With a proper accounting framework, businesses are able to make fully-informed decisions, increase efficiency, reduce costs and generally grow more quickly. Analysis of past expenses and income, reviews of cash flows in and out, allow businesses to have a better idea of the company’s performance. A good accounting system helps a business to fully capture the relevant transactional information and allows for better business analysis and forecasting.

It is all too easy for businesses to get into trouble because they make the assumption that they are growing fine, when the reality is that their money tree is still fragile.

Our goal is to educate business owners and provide practical, cost-effective solutions to help them understand the financial data captured by their accounting systems. As a result, you’ll be equipped to make better business decisions based on that increased understanding. Accounting is the backbone of any business, whether it’s a one-person online store or a Fortune 500 company.
