Talk Through Your First 90 Days

“Rosa Padilla has been our controller for the past two years and is a pleasure to work with. She is very dedicated, patient, and a perfectionist when it comes to accounting. She is very knowledgeable within the temp industry as well as other areas of the business. I highly recommend Rosa as a controller, mentor, and leader.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions we get—because we believe in transparency, clarity, and setting expectations from day one.

Most clients are fully onboarded within 2–4 weeks. If your financials are in disarray, we’ll prioritize triage in week one and stabilize quickly from there.

No. That’s our job. Whether your systems are messy, incomplete, or inaccurate, we’ll handle the cleanup during onboarding—without blaming or shaming.

We work with the platforms staffing firms actually use—Avionté, QuickBooks Online, Bullhorn, and more. If you’re mid-migration or need help choosing tools, we’ll lead implementation with financial integrity in mind.

That’s common. We can complement your team with oversight, reporting, or strategic support. Whether we’re your entire finance function or a partner to your internal staff, we adapt to fit your needs.

Not at all. Our team has decades of experience in staffing-specific payroll, billing, and compliance. We already understand the nuances—from week-ending reporting to markup structures.

If you’re a privately held staffing company, PE-backed group, or high-growth firm with messy financials or limited internal infrastructure—yes. That’s exactly who we’re built for.

We operate on a flat-fee retainer model based on scope and complexity. No hourly billing. No surprise charges. Just consistent support and strategic partnership.

We don’t manage collections—but we’ll help you build better processes around billing and reporting. We also refer clients to trusted funding partners when needed.

Yes. Whether you need help with insurance, payroll providers, timekeeping tools, or funding, we connect clients with partners we’ve vetted—no kickbacks, just credibility.

We don’t act like vendors. We act like part of your team. That means hands-on execution, proactive insight, and support you don’t have to chase.

Yes. Staffing is all we do. RLP, CPA LLC was built specifically to serve the unique accounting, payroll, and financial strategy needs of staffing firms. That means no generic solutions, no learning curve, and no wasted time explaining how your business works—we already speak your language.
