“I had recently started in my new position as Director of Operations and Finance at the US Federation of Worker Cooperatives when our Operations Manager let me know the joyous news that they were going to be a new parent and would need to go on parental leave. I was so excited for them, and so scared for myself! They know everything about our financials, about our books and all of our financial processes. I just did not feel I had enough time under my belt to fully cover for their absence. 

But luckily - I knew the Federation had utilized Inland Cooperative Services in covering some financial work earlier in the year and that they had done a terrific job. So I reached out and Emily Himmelright of Inland Cooperative Services said they would be happy to come back and cover for the gap.

And I have to say, she did an amazing job. We quickly jumped in using the same checklists and process flows that Emily had used the last time she had done work with us. She was incredibly timely, incredibly responsive and we didn’t miss a beat in our day to day operations. Overall, I and the whole team found Emily to be knowledgeable, proactive and best of all, she really fit into the Federation culture and was extremely easy to work with. Inland definitely saved me and I cannot recommend Emily and Inland Cooperative Services enough!”

Testimonial of our work from the US Federation of Worker Cooperative's Director of Finance and Operation

  • “We were struggling with keeping up with all of our receipts and accounts receivables. Although our book keeper was doing his best. As we grew we knew we were in a place where we needed professional guidance and help. Inland has done a great job of helping us apply proper applications in our accounting using platforms that create a flow that works for us all.”

Who We Serve

We thrive on helping our clients set up, manage, and oversee financial data, processes and systems.

Our services translate to businesses regardless of their industry or business model. We serve non-profits, cooperatives, sole proprietors, and small businesses. You’ll see from our current client portfolio that we have experience in construction, homecare, retail, housing, farming / agriculture, brewing, service and restaurants, and many more.

Combined our team holds 20+ years of relevant experience, as both service provider and business owner. 

  • We primarily serve clients in Washington State, but we do have experience and established client history for clients nationally. Our virtual workflow allows us the flexibility to expand our services across the US.

  • Small and independent businesses and non-profits with 1-50 employees that require professional financial services but cannot justify hiring full-time staff. 

    These types of clients often seek personalized attention and value-based relationships that larger accounting firms cannot provide.

  • We pride ourselves on being not just an adaptable business services provider, but a partner to our clients as well.

    If we don’t directly offer a service you need or aren’t the right fit for your business, we’ll research and refer you to someone who can.
