Built to Solve Your Bookkeeping Challenges
Propela was born out of our frustration with how poorly managed bookkeeping systems were holding business owners back.
Our founders saw how backlogs, disorganized books, and manual systems prevented business owners like you from accessing the insights you need to make confident financial decisions and grow your company.
That’s why we set out to build a firm that goes beyond basic bookkeeping—we provide expert-level bookkeeping, payroll and sales tax services with the clarity that empowers you to take control and thrive.
With a combined background in bookkeeping, accounting, finance, business ownership, and project management, our team brings a hands-on approach to solving the unique challenges that service-based businesses face.
