Finally, Your Complete Finance Department Team!

We know your business depends on your ability to make sound judgments around complex issues such as strategic business development, cost efficiencies, and projections. At crucial decision-making times, you need the support of an experienced Accountant, Controller or Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Their expertise would be invaluable, but many organizations simply can't justify hiring one full-time.

That's where outsourcing comes in, providing a cost-effective solution. MAG financial and bookkeeping experts have worked with companies in situations just like yours. We've held financial and accounting leadership positions in an array of businesses. And we're experienced at implementing financial controls and reporting, analyzing business processes, developing policies and procedures and restructuring activities necessary to keep your business' financial health on solid ground.
