About Grace

I've been where
you are.

Having owned a successful small business, I know how hectic the pace of running one can be. That's why I started Grace Dougan Consulting — to give entrepreneurs the back-office support they need, without the overhead of a full-time hire.

We are your business in a box — a dedicated in-house team that handles the recurring operational work so you can focus on what you're passionate about and what you do best.

Since 2010, we've been helping California small businesses run more efficiently. Our team brings deep experience across bookkeeping, financial strategy, HR, and operations — all available to you on a flexible basis.
