The Problem

Hamburger Mary’s started as a small, family-run operation with little focus on financial management. The company lacked control and visibility into its financial health, relying on outdated methods such as bank balances to manage cash flow and only reviewing Profit & Loss statements annually. With multiple contracted services, including a local CPA, the business found itself disorganized, inefficient, and facing rising costs.

The Solution

 Hamburger Mary’s partnered with Back Office to streamline accounting and gain better financial insight.

By consolidating services into a single platform, Back Office provided a comprehensive accounting solution that included payroll support, weekly financial statements, and real-time financial visibility. Back Office’s weekly accounting package, complete with a P&L Statement, Balance Sheet, and Statement of Cashflow, became a pivotal tool, allowing the Hamburger Mary’s to learn essential financial principles and gain immediate control over its financial standing, all from one easy-to-use software.

Results

With Back Office’s support, Hamburger Mary’s evolved from a small operation into a thriving enterprise. The introduction of consistent weekly financial reviews and a consolidated accounting service helped the company make smarter, more informed decisions that directly improved profitability and efficiency.

“Being accountable weekly through Back Office for performance and profitability made us grow up as a company. We moved from relying on bank balances and annual P&Ls to having immediate control and understanding of our financial position, all in one platform.”

With this newfound financial clarity, the team was able to make more data-driven decisions, allowing them to identify inefficiencies early and capitalize on opportunities for growth. The continuous support and training from Back Office also enabled their staff to become more financially knowledgeable, contributing to a more informed and confident workforce. As the company expanded, they found themselves better equipped to manage the complexities of a growing business while maintaining financial discipline.
