Services
Consulting by Numbers specializes in supporting and growing small local businesses with bookkeeping, project management, and small business consulting.
I love working with small business owners and helping them expand their companies by bringing tools and practices learned through my own experiences.
My goal for you is the same as my goal for myself: find ways to take control of my time so I can do things on my own terms. Bookkeeping always seemed to be a demanding activity that dictated to me when things needed to happen and how. Maybe it was my own rebellious nature that led me to seek out ways to mold bookkeeping into something that worked quickly and efficiently.
Let’s make bookkeeping work for you as well.

About
Carissa Daniels, owner
Small business has been my focus from the start. I like the idea of the owner who knows both their employees and their employees’ families. The owner who donates to the t-ball team. The small business that posts on their social media about the new small business across the street. I’m charmed by Main Street America, and my work is in fostering all that is good about the digital Main Street.
Small businesses need high quality support that fits in their budget. They need the ability to bring on someone who will really take the time to get to know the business and love it and root for it as if it were their own.
Like many of my clients, I founded my business because I march to the beat of my own drum. I value having a say in how I use my time and my effort. I’ll admit it, sometimes I check my emails in my turquoise living room, in my pajamas. I value my lunch-time runs with my dog. I offer my support so that my clients can have more time to spend with their pets or partners or kids or crafting…whatever it is that they’d be doing if they weren’t spending time on bookkeeping.
I hold a B.A. in Mathematics from Boston College and a teaching certificate from Bridgewater State. Prior to founding Consulting by Numbers, I worked in Account Management, Operations Management, Program Direction, Project Coordination, Sales, and Education.
