Small Business Accountant in Sarnia
Strategic accounting support for business owners ready to move beyond reactive bookkeeping
Your business has grown, but your accounting may not have. If you’re like many of the owners we work with in Sarnia, you’re managing real revenue, a small team, and important financial decisions. You don’t just want clean books. You want visibility, clarity, and confidence.
At Vistance Accounting, we act as your dedicated accounting partner. We go beyond data entry and tax filing. Our focus is helping you understand the numbers behind your business, improve cash flow, and prepare for what’s next, whether that’s expansion, hiring, or raising capital.
“We’ve outgrown our current setup, but we’re not ready for a full finance team.”
That’s exactly where we come in.
Most of our clients in Sarnia were doing the best they could with a bookkeeper, part-time accountant, or even handling things themselves. But as they crossed key thresholds like one million dollars in revenue, a growing team, or rising expenses, they started to feel the gaps.
Financial reports were late or unreliable
Tax filings were reactive, not planned
No one explained what the numbers meant
Decisions were made without real data
Things felt organized on the surface, but messy behind the scenes
You’re not alone. These are the growing pains we solve.

If you have people to pay, decisions to make, and a business to grow, we are here to help you do it with structure and clarity.
“I don’t know if I’m actually making money.”
Sales are strong, but your profits (and your bank balance) don’t show it. We help you track your margins, control costs, and see what’s really going on.
“My bookkeeper enters the numbers, but no one explains them.”
We deliver clear monthly reports and walk you through them so you actually understand your business’s performance.
“Cash flow always feels tight, even when revenue is up.”
We help you project cash flow, manage timing, and prevent stress during slower months or rapid growth.
“We’re growing, but things are starting to feel chaotic.”
As your business scales, your financial systems need to keep up. We help you streamline and stabilize operations.
“I want to raise funding or expand, but my numbers aren’t ready.”
We prepare investor ready financials, budgets, and reports so you’re not caught off guard.
