Case Study: Rise achieves faster growth and accurate bookkeeping with Bench

Why Getting a Professional Bookkeeper Was Crucial to Growing My Agency

Rise, an internet marketing and web development agency founded by Kahl Orr, was growing quickly and needed a better way to manage bookkeeping. As the team expanded and expenses piled up across multiple financial institutions, DIY accounting software became messy, time-consuming, and unreliable, creating duplicate entries and making year-end CPA work a burden.

Bench provided Rise with a dedicated professional bookkeeper and online bookkeeping support to clean up duplicates, track spending rules, coordinate with the CPA, and prepare accurate monthly books. With Bench’s help, Rise saved an estimated 2 to 4 hours per month, gained clearer cash flow visibility through the Pulse feature, and freed up time to focus on growth—helping the company surpass prior revenue levels and stay on pace to exceed $500,000 in annual revenue.
