Hi There.
We’re Dive Buddy Accounting

Strengthening financial fortitude for divers, dreamers, and doers.

About

In scuba diving, the Buddy System is the rule of the sea. This set of safety procedures vastly improves the chances of avoiding (or surviving) accidents. It works when two or more people—competent, skilled, and sufficiently aware of the situation—cooperate with each other, aligned in attitude and competence.

We believe that the business arena isn’t that different from any other wild and ever-changing ecosystem.

Strategic Partners in Accounting can be a real lifesaver in mitigating cash flow emergencies and entrapment in the jaws of the IRS. We’re here to “buddy check” your small business and help avoid the omission, misuse or failure of financial flows and information, at tax time and all the other times, too.

Look to us when you need a fresh perspective and to see your business from the lens of a CFO.

Do a deeper dive.

THREE PRIMARY PILLARS

01

Just because you want to be underwater doesn’t mean you have to be underwater.

02

Soak in the sun of soluble strategies and backrolled bankrolls

03

Bask in confidence, the “business buoyancy experts” have got you.

History

Business isn’t a burden when someone you trust has got your back.

Live a life wild and free, on your own terms, with an enterprise that supports you.

Dive Buddy Accounting is part of the Calculated Moves posse of niche-specific CPA services for family run businesses. They all have one thing in common: passionate people who want to work for themselves doing something they love… and maybe launch a little legacy for the next gen while they’re at it.

If you want to make the most of your entrepreneurial investment without it taking the most out of you, get to know Dive Buddy Accounting. We are the full-service CPA team (and dive enthusiasts) that deliver a way out of operations overwhelm, decision-fatigue, and fear of surprises…. because there’s more to taxes than being on time, and there’s more to life than business.

"The buddy system is the situation which occurs when two divers of similar interest and equal experience and ability share a dive, continuously monitoring each other throughout the entry, the dive and the exit, and remaining within such distance that they could render immediate assistance to each other if required"
