About Us
Scooter was started by Will Keller, an all-purpose accountant/CPA/Controller who saw how time-consuming and irritating accounting was for small businesses. “What the world really needs,” he said to himself as he ate his brown bag lunch every day, “is a firm that provides simple, affordable, all-inclusive monthly accounting services to small businesses. And gosh darn it, all the work needs to be done online.” So he gathered up his tools, built a one-page Squarespace website, and started Scooter.
