Our Story

An Open Letter to Small Business

This is the letter we posted on a single page website when we launched in 2011. The details have changed, our knees are older… but the mission is the same.

Dear Small Business Owner,

You have a growing young business on your hands. You’re busy bringing in new customers, providing amazing products and services, and keeping track of employees and vendors.

As an entrepreneur, you wear a lot of hats. We’d like to wear one for you.

Meet Origami. Origami exists to transform the tedium and anxiety of “keeping the books” into something… pleasant.

We call it The Art of Paperwork.

You may have worked with traditional accounting firms in the past. You may have thought that they might not be a perfect fit for small business. We thought that too. Let us introduce you to something different.

We’ve built a fully outsourced accounting solution for businesses like yours.

Imagine having the budget to have a team of accounting professionals on staff to take care of your bookkeeping, accounting, and tax filings.

That’s Origami.

We charge a flat monthly fee and our service includes everything you need to keep your books current: your monthly bookkeeping, financial statements, GST remittances, and your year-end tax filing. There are no administration fees or fixed contract terms. You begin with your current monthly payment and continue on with the monthly fee directly debited from your bank account. You are totally up to date and compliant every single month.

We like to keep things straightforward and transparent. We hope you’re intrigued by our company and our service. We’d like to add your business to our growing list of happy customers.

Until we meet,

 

— The Origami Team
