Our Story

FM Bookkeeping was created out of love for helping small businesses succeed and having a strong skillset in billing, administration, and reconciling work spanning nearly a decade. Founded in 2023, owner Mariel Fry had been in corporate America for 8+ years at a variety of companies such as a travel agency, entertainment companies such as HBO and BBC Studios, and a video gaming company.

Through a handful of coffee conversations, thinking inward, and honing in on personal strengths and skills, Mariel launched FM Bookkeeping to provide a comprehensive process for small business owners to stay financially organized.

As of 2024, FM Bookkeeping is now operating as a small team of expert bookkeepers to keep you and your business as organized as possible.

Aside from billing, reconciling, and reporting, FM Bookkeeping is an advocate for having a confident relationship with money which is why when you work with us you not only get expert financial support, you also get a cheerleader in owning your money.

Before hiring Mariel I was spending countless hours trying to keep up with the monthly bookkeeping. Now, I'm able to put significantly more time and energy into growing my business and increasing revenue. In addition to balancing the books, Mariel answers my questions promptly and provides me with thoughtful guidance. With her help, I've been able to put systems in place that keep my company running smoothly.

Mariel is amazing! I typically hate talking about my finances and avoid it like the plague. Mariel makes the process painless and she’s so kind and professional. I don’t know where I would be without her!

As an entrepreneur who has gotten more and more busy, I couldn't manage it anymore and quite frankly I didn't want to. In comes Mariel!!! Her knowledge and organization has been a game changer for me and my business and I am so grateful for her! Hire her and I know you will be pleased, too.
