Natalie M. Spears, CEO

“Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth doing well.”
— Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield

Our founder, Natalie M. Spears, noticed many people and companies no longer took pride in their work.  They produced a product or service that was less than their very best.  For her, that was simply unacceptable.  It was not the way she had been raised and taught.  She grew up learning that you must do a job and do it well.

Thus was born Vintage Grey LLC…a company who does a job and does it well.  You see, we are an exclusive specialty shop for the discerning clientele.  As part of this exclusive client group, your every bookkeeping need will be met.  We will tailor your monthly package to fit your specifications, customized for your unique business requirements.

Are you too busy?

Too many tasks and not enough hours in your day?  Let us take some of that load off of you so that you will have more time to focus on other areas of your business.  Or, perhaps, more time to spend doing all of those other things you really WANT to do...you know, the FUN "to do" list...the things you thought you might get to do from time-to-time by owning your own business. 

Need an expert?

Let us help you in the area where WE are the EXPERTS:  your business finances...your DAY-TO-DAY BOOKKEEPING functions....those detailed, necessary tasks that take up so much of your day that you are struggling to find the time to focus on other areas that really need your attention.  

Need project tracking?

Need a simple, easy-to-use process for tracking project expenses and monthly project reports to keep you on track? We have a proprietary process we developed to streamline and simplify the nuances of tracking expenses for each project and IT IS EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND!

Need sales tax help?

Are you unsure how to track and report your sales tax? We have mastered the art of sales tax and we KNOW it is a huge deal for interior designers. Because of this, we offer this service. Many of our clients feel this one service alone is worth what they spend in total for our services!

At Vintage Grey LLC, every client is unique. We will personally guide you through the entire experience, from initial setup to complete understanding of the financial health of your business.  We will be with you every step of the process.
