Why we're different...
Sure, we’ll get your books and reporting dialed (and in record time) — that’s the baseline. But Salt Margin brings a few things to the table most outsourced accounting teams don’t.
Read on to see what really sets us apart.
Our service pays for itself — and then some.
We’re not an extra line item — we’re a margin multiplier.
​
With smarter systems, tighter operations, and real financial strategy, our clients don’t just get clarity — they get results. After a Salt Margin cleanup, it’s common to recover tens (even hundreds) of thousands in missed margin, late fees, bloated software, and inefficiencies. In many cases, we uncover $100K–$500K in savings within 90 days — thanks to sharp analysis and a trusted network that helps unlock better rates on things like workers’ comp, credit card processing, and health insurance.​
Real Operator Experience, Not Just Advisors
You're not getting spreadsheet jockeys or career consultants — you're getting CFOs who’ve run finance at brands like Hurley, Volcom, and Rip Curl. We’ve sat in your seat, faced your fires, and come out profitable.
We Know What Makes a Great Hire
A fancy degree looks good on paper — but we’re more interested in people who can actually get the work done. After decades of building and leading finance teams, we know how to spot real talent: the kind that takes initiative, solves problems without hand-holding, and keeps things moving without missing deadlines. Whether you're hiring a bookkeeper, controller, or full finance team, we’ll help you find the right fit — not just the right résumé. Because at the end of the day, it’s not about pedigree. It’s about performance.
We won’t talk you into fancy (and expensive) software you don’t need.
We’ve worked inside all kinds of multi-million dollar companies using everything from QuickBooks Online to NetSuite and beyond. And here’s what we’ve learned: brands are often sold on six-figure systems they don’t need — or worse, never fully use. You pay for bells and whistles, but still drown in bad data and clunky workflows.
At Salt Margin, we focus on making the most of what you already have. If QuickBooks does the trick, we’ll help you dial it in and move on. If you genuinely need something more, we’ll tell you — and make sure it’s actually worth the cost.
​
Software doesn’t fix broken processes, disorganized teams, or a lack of strategy - we do.
Scalable Support Built Around You
We don’t force you into cookie-cutter retainers. Whether you need a 90-day overhaul or long-term strategy support, we build the plan around what you actually need.
We don't overcomplicate to look smart.
Accounting for a multi-million dollar brand can be messy, tedious, and full of complexity — but that doesn’t mean your systems or reporting should be. Some firms overcomplicate things to justify a fee. Not us.
​
We believe the real value is in making hard things feel simple. We clean up the chaos, give you tools you actually understand, and deliver clarity without the jargon. Making your life easier doesn’t diminish our value — it proves it.
We Speak Human, Not Just Numbers
No one needs another unread spreadsheet in their inbox. We translate the numbers into decisions, and strategy into action. You'll actually understand what we’re doing and why it matters.
