Our Roots- Who is ThriveCounts
Stormy Barrett
Founder, ThriveCounts | Bookkeeping & Payroll for Small Businesses
I help small business owners who are behind, overwhelmed, or unsure of their numbers get clean, accurate, tax-ready books—so they can stop guessing and start growing.
Before founding ThriveCounts, I spent over 30 years in theatre—directing, stage managing, and leading productions with teams of up to 200 people. It was organized chaos, and it taught me something most business owners learn the hard way:
Strong systems don’t limit growth—they make it possible.
Today, I bring that same mindset into every business I work with. Behind every successful company is a structure that holds everything together. I build that structure by turning messy books into clear financials and creating systems that actually work.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying everything—your clients, your team, your finances—you’re not alone. Most of my clients come to me overwhelmed, behind, or tired of not knowing where they stand.
We fix that.
We clean up your books, set up reliable systems, and keep everything organized and tax-ready—so you can focus on running and growing your business with confidence.
Because at the end of the day, running a business shouldn’t feel like constant chaos behind the scenes.
It should feel like everything is finally working.
