Small businesses are the heart and soul of the Canadian economy
With over 1 million small businesses representing 99% of all companies and employing more than 10 million Canadians, they’re the backbone of our communities - from family-run shops and tradespeople to startups and local service providers.
In Canada, a small business is typically defined as having fewer than 100 employees and annual gross revenue between $30,000 and $5 million. Whether you’re a sole proprietor, a micro-business with under 5 staff, or a growing team of 20, your financial needs are unique - and so is Clarke & Khan’s approach.
One-stop shop
You may not need a full-time CFO - but probably you would appreciate someone who understands your business, your numbers and can help you make more informed decisions. That’s where we come in.
At Clarke & Khan, we partner with Canadian small businesses to provide hands-on accounting support and business guidance, including:
Bookkeeping – Clear, timely, and accurate books to keep your operations running smoothly
Payroll services – Automated, compliant, and employee-friendly payroll processing
Financial statement preparation – Monthly or quarterly reports to help you understand how your business is performing
Tax compliance – Full tax return preparation and filing for sole props, corporations, and partnerships
Tax planning – Strategic advice to minimize tax and avoid costly surprises
Financial planning and analysis (FP&A) – Budgeting, forecasting, and scenario planning to help you grow with confidence
Business advisory – Practical guidance on strategy, cash flow, pricing, systems, and scaling
Exit and succession planning - we help Canadian small business owners design and execute exit strategies that maximize value, minimize tax, and ensure a smooth transition — whether you’re planning to exit in 12 months, 5 years, or more.
Partnership and communication
Let’s be honest - most accountants will file your taxes and touch base once a year. We’re not most accountants. At Clarke & Khan, we work with you, not just for you, by aligning with your goals, checking in regularly, and helping you make better decisions year-round. We don’t think it’s anything extraordinary — just what modern day’s accounting should be.
We know small business inside and out. Our team speaks your language, understands your time constraints, and shows up as more than just your accountant. We’re your partner in building a sustainable, profitable business over the long-term.
