Why partner with Ballast?

Finance & accounting designed for small business success

Most finance firms track history. We help you shape the future. 

Our purpose is to champion and guide founders, operators, entrepreneurs, and owners on their mission to drive growth, progress, and innovation. 

Our hands-on approach ensures finance isn’t just a compliance function—it’s a tool for gaining clarity, taking confident and decisive action, and achieving the success you envision.

How we’re different:

  • Actionable insights, not just analysis: We turn financial data into clear, practical next steps that move your business forward.

  • Built-in accountability: We don’t just track progress—we make sure you’re positioned to pivot, adjust, and stay on course.

  • Thought partnership: Our experience across hundreds of small businesses means we get it, and our approach is designed to build trust and partnership. 

  • A team of specialists, not a solo act: With Ballast, you get the right mix of continuity and expertise, without having to rely on one person to do it all. We can step in as your finance team or augment the one you already have.

  • Less managing, more momentum: Our managed service model means fewer people to oversee and more time to focus on running your business.

  • “In less than 90 days, Ballast has given us the financial visibility we need to make informed investment decisions and sustain a high growth rate.”

    — Tom Corbitt, Founder & Managing Partner, Top Line Growth

  • “By far, our most outstanding experience working with outside consultants. We truly see Ballast as an extension of our own team.”

    — Claire Herring, Blue Ocean Brain

  • “We wouldn’t be in business today if not for Ballast. Their partnership has been vital.”

    — Founder, High-Growth, Early-Stage Business
