“Focus has been a valuable team player, dedicated to accurate financial reporting via industry-compliant formats. We could not have asked for a more cooperative and helpful working environment on engagements where we have worked together.”

--Vance A. Roy, CPA, CSEP Roy and Associates, PC

Why Outsource

Some of the busiest people we know are hotel general managers. In addition to their already overloaded daily agenda, all too often we see the GM scrambling to get bookkeeping tasks completed.

When the work does get completed it’s usually done using an “off the shelf” accounting software product that wasn’t built for hotels. Then the GM rushes to reformat the information into a spreadsheet just to present a report to the owners. If the product was built for hotels it usually includes costly bells and whistles that will most likely never be used even though the owner paid for the software.

With the ever changing economics of staffing appropriate personnel, expensive software and hardware investments, deadlines, and more, owners are entrusting their hotel bookkeeping to the experts at Focus.

KEY HOTEL MANAGEMENT, LLC

“When you’re a small company with a few hotels or a management company which is growing, you can’t afford to have your own accounting department prepare financial statements that follow the Uniform System of Accounting for the Hospitality Industry. We have been using Focus’s services since 2003. Great support, great reports, and a great working relationship.”

-Greg de Marrias, Partner
