Bookkeeping for Indigenous Businesses, by an Indigenous Firm.
Mianscum Advisory was built to support Indigenous entrepreneurs with practical, dependable bookkeeping. We understand the importance of building strong businesses and creating lasting economic opportunities for our communities.
MEET THE FOUNDER
Built on Experience. Driven by a Bigger Vision.
My name is Bradley Mianscum Jr., and I founded Mianscum Advisory & Bookkeeping Services to help Indigenous entrepreneurs build stronger businesses.
With experience in accounting, business operations, and supporting entrepreneurship, I've seen how important it is for business owners to understand their numbers and have reliable financial records. I started this firm to make that support more accessible to Indigenous businesses, helping entrepreneurs stay organized, make informed decisions, and focus on growing their vision.
I believe strong businesses help build strong communities. My goal is to contribute to Indigenous economic growth by helping entrepreneurs build solid financial foundations for the future.
