About

Why the name Venn Tax and Bookkeeping?

I was looking for a name for my company that was a little unique and I wanted to pay homage to my Norwegian heritage and discovered that Venn in Norwegian for Friend. This is perfect as we truly do see our clients as friends –they are not just a business relationship but a relationship where we work together to reach common goals.

I was also excited because a Venn Diagram is an illustration that uses circles to show relationships among things or finite groups of things. This is a perfect example as it signifies between your business and mine.
