Big stars are a big business.
Your talent, your creativity and your fame have propelled your success. Whether you’re an entertainer, content creator, or executive – you are your business. It’s even more important for you to have the expertise of business managers with decades of experience who have worked with some of the brightest stars and biggest talents.
Fortune, fame and financial expertise go hand-in-hand.
When it comes to managing your business, our CPAs and financial professionals are your partners, handling all the financial and accounting details large and small. We keep you on track and in control of your business and personal finances. You focus on your success – we will focus on your finances.

Decades of big-tour experience with a personal touch.

WE’VE BEEN WHERE ENTERTAINERS GO
We’ve lived on tour buses, been in-and-out of hotel rooms, and have a deep understanding of entertainers that travel for months at a time – personally and financially. That background allows us to shape sophisticated tour budgets, review complex settlements, and quickly reconcile road floats. We work quickly and accurately on accounting for multi-leg tours, income collection, multi-state payroll services and vendor negotiations – all to keep you doing what you do best.
