Local communities need small businesses to create vibrant, exciting, and abundant environments. We work closely with dozens of small business leaders based here in the Bay.
Lindsay t. | Play Space Owner - Oakland, CA
I've had PFF as my virtual CFO team for the last 2 years. The staff have been exceptional at keeping my books clear and concise, as well as giving me strategy and tax support. I feel I am in good hands with Luisa and her team. Anyone I show my P&Ls to are super impressed by the work, and they are continuing to support me as I expand my business. I am super grateful to have a team who are PEOPLE, who extend kindness & flexibility & active listening rather than someone who just does my books. Highly recommended!”
Eric R. | Design Agency Owner - San Francisco, CA
“As a small business owner, I struggled for years to find someone to help me with my financial affairs that I liked and that I could trust. If you're serious about getting your finances in order, I can't recommend People First Finance enough. Luisa and her team are knowledgeable, responsible, and committed. Call them, call them, call them today. They've made a world of difference to my day to day and my bottom line. One of the best business decisions I ever made was to hire PFF. Do it!”
