Who we work with
We have the best clients in the world.
They are passionate and ambitious entrepreneurs, founders and executives who have sacrificed and worked hard to achieve their goals to be where they are now.
It’s inspiring for us to have had a front-row seat watching their journey, and supporting them along the way.
Holistic business advisory for Canadian entrepreneurs
Let’s make the business work for you, instead of you working for the business. We help business owners go beyond bookkeeping and tax returns by aligning your company’s financial health with your personal goals, lifestyle, and exit planning.
Accounting and tax support for Canadian small businesses
From sole proprietors, to tradespeople, to mom-and-pop shops and developed operations, we provide hands-on financial guidance tailored to businesses with fewer than 100 employees.
Financial foundations for sustainable growth
From pre-revenue ventures to companies with steady MRR preparing for series A, through our fractional CFO services we help founders build the financial clarity, confidence, and credibility needed to grow and attract investors.
Flexible finance solutions for mid-sized businesses
When bookkeeping and tax filing aren’t enough, but a full in-house finance team feels premature, we provide outsourced finance, accounting, and tax support tailored to growing Canadian companies.
We try to be different
While there are a lot of accounting firms out there that will do your bookkeeping and tax return, they don’t understand your business (or life) well enough to be strategic and make recommendations to help you make important decisions.
On the other hand, there are consultants and Fractional CFOs (chief financial officers) out there that do understand your business and help you scale on a strategic level, but they don’t do the financial operations, or the tax stuff.
We do both, and this is how we try to be different.
What our clients say:
-
"Before I was doing my own bookkeeping and was getting stressed out. Now, not only does C&K handle this plus the other accounting/tax stuff, I also have them to bounce off business ideas."
Shay, Founder of Axis Talent
-
The rapport Clarke & Khan built and trust they were able to establish up front was night and day compared with other firms, who operate on a much more transactional basis. C&K peels back the layers of the onion - not only on the mechanics of the business, but also on the founders' aspirations, goals, and work backwards from there.
Colin, Founder of Thumbstop Media
-
“C&K delivers truly hands-on, strategic support. They get into the details with me and genuinely care about our success. With them, it feels like I have a dedicated finance team, which gives me confidence when speaking with any financial partners, from investors to lenders.”
Brad, CEO of OneTwo Stop Portable Sanitation
-
"We of course get strong bookkeeping, accounting and tax expertise from C&K, but more importantly we get another experienced member of our team. I speak to Harrison often and his feedback is coveted and embraced. He remembers all the details about our company and makes me feel like I'm his only client."
Albert, CEO of ConeLabs
-
I’ve been working with Clarke & Khan since March 2022, and in that time, I’ve come to truly appreciate them as partners in my firm. Beyond their high-quality work with taxes and transactional filings, they are genuinely invested in my success. They offer financial recommendations and suggestions across all aspects of my business. In every meeting and interaction with the C&K team, it’s clear they have my family and business’s best interests at heart.
Mike Utsal, Principal at Mutsal Inc.
-
Clarke & Khan were hands-on from day one, quick to understand our business, and very excited about helping Formaloo grow in the Canadian market. I appreciate their speed and clarity. They respond fast, they simplify the complex stuff, and they always look for ways to optimize and support our growth.
Farokh Shahabi, CEO at Formaloo
-
"Working with Clarke & Khan has completely transformed how we manage our finances. Instead of simply handing us reports, they look ahead, spotting ways to improve cash flow, reduce risks, and plan for growth. Their team is approachable, quick to respond, and genuinely cares about our success. What we love most is how they make complicated financial matters easy to understand and turn them into practical steps we can act on."
Rizwan Shaikh, CTO of Wired 360
-
"Iftikhar has provided superior financial advice and accounting services for our Canadian and U.S. businesses for several years, including interfacing with tax authorities and other external parties. He conducted historical audits on complex transfer pricing issues related to withholding taxes on Part XII and Regulation 105 of the Canadian tax code and was able to plan our taxes efficiently. I highly recommend him."
Joe, President of Bladefence USA & Canada
