The Immediate Challenges for Bench Clients

Bench’s abrupt closure leaves its former clients with several pressing concerns:

• Access to Financial Records: Ensuring you still have all your data is vital. Clients may face delays or difficulties retrieving their financial records.

• Finding a New Service Provider: Trustworthy bookkeeping isn’t just about crunching numbers—it’s about understanding your unique business needs. Finding a new partner can feel daunting.

• Time Sensitivity: Year-end reporting and tax season are fast approaching, and disruptions in bookkeeping services could have serious consequences.
