About our Accounting and Bookkeeping Team



Bay Business Group, LLC is led by David Bradsher, CPA.


After 20 years in the CPA field, 11 with accounting giant Deloitte & Touche, David recognized the great need of small-, medium-sized and emerging businesses for specialized accounting services that would empower them to focus on the core of their business instead of spending valuable time on complex financial issues.

David's vision, which grew into Bay Business Group, was (and still is) to provide these businesses with a service model typically available only to the largest companies.

Today, BBG is much more than a bookkeeping service. David and his team use a consultative approach that also includes guidance on business planning, tax planning, business strategy, forecasting and budgeting.

EXPERTS at outsourced bookkeeping and accounting.
