We keep the books for growing businesses.
Averan is a bookkeeping and controller firm. We take over the books, own the monthly close, and give owners numbers they can make decisions from.
Every owner should be able to look at their own numbers and know what to do next. We keep the books that make that possible, and help you plan what comes after.
You need to make decisions to grow, and we set up the books and reporting that help you make them.
Hiring, pricing, a new location or new debt each rest on knowing how last month went, how much cash is coming in the weeks ahead, and which parts of the business make money. Averan Advisors keeps the books, closes each month on the date we agree, and walks you through the results before your next decision.
What changes for you
You decide with confidence
When you're weighing a hire, a price change, a second location or an offer on the table, the real question is whether you can trust what the books tell you.
You stop carrying it
We own the close, the reconciliations and the reporting. You get your weekends back, and one less thing that only works because you're watching it.
You keep the same team as you grow
As the business gets more complex, the people stay the same. We take on more as your questions grow, so you never have to explain anything twice.
Scott Engler, Founder
Scott is the founder of Averan and Chair of C2O, a private Vistage CEO peer advisory group for owners and chief executives. Sitting in that room every month keeps him close to the decisions, pressures, and tradeoffs owners are actually dealing with.
Scott has worked in finance for 30 years. His first job was designing a four-hour close for a commodities trading firm. He later built an entire financial system for another, moved into business broadcasting, and eventually led a mid-market CFO practice serving more than 1,000 members.
Before founding Averan Advisors, Scott spent 17 of those years at CEB and Gartner, starting in 2007, leading CFO and CHRO advisory practices and working directly with more than 2,000 middle-market CFOs. In that work Scott saw that good decisions start with numbers a company can trust.
His experience also includes private-equity advisory and hands-on ownership of companies he helped grow and sell. That experience shapes how Averan works: get the books right, then use the numbers to make better decisions about pricing, hiring, margins, and cash.
Scott knows what owners need from their numbers because he has spent his career on both sides of the table, advising executives and sitting alongside owners as they make the decisions themselves.
