"When our company first started, it was a sole proprietor business with a few employees. We did not have time to do our own accounting, so we hired ASP in Bellevue to do our bookkeeping, and we are very glad we did! We highly recommend them to start-ups and small businesses who want to focus on their WORK instead of their paperwork."
