First You Need Accurate Books, Then You Need To Understand Them.
It’s imperative that you do both!
Business owners cannot afford to be in the dark about their numbers because numbers drive mission-critical decisions.
-
Can I afford to bring on new staff?
-
Do we have the bandwidth to do substantive advertising?
-
Will we make a profit this year?
-
Should I get a business loan? CAN I GET a business loan?
-
Now that we’re making a profit, how should I use this money?
-
We’ve outgrown our space. Can we afford to move?
The tough bottom-line questions that fall to business owners require numbers to back the answer and decision.
That’s where DLM Bookkeeping Solutions comes in.
With almost 3 decades working with companies both large and small and across a vast diversity of industries, I can bring clarity and understanding to your financial landscape.
After all, you can’t see the picture if you’re in the frame.
About Debra
I’m a “numbers-nerd” that never met a financial statement that I didn’t love, and I’ve worked in such diverse industries as title and real-estate, email marketing, retail, and not-for-profit.
For almost 3-decades, I’ve enjoyed rolling up my sleeves, providing the numbers that help drive executive decision making, and playing a key role in a company’s success.
My passion for finance as well as being entrepreneurial by nature, led me to launch DLM Bookkeeping Solutions in October 2017, and it’s been exciting to “get into the weeds” with my clients.
When not looking at balance sheets, QuickBooks, and budgets, I’m a busy Mom of 2 even busier children and family is very important to me. While I work hard, you can also find me cheering on my children at their sports, helping with homework, and playing an active role in their lives.
I’m fortunate to live in a beautiful community about 45 minutes from the heart of New York City, so I get to combine the best of both worlds.

DLM bookkeeping has been doing my books for five years now. I’m extremely happy with the job they have done. Ms. Manfre, is professional, and a pleasure to work with. She takes care of my bookkeeping needs and weekly commissions for my sales team. If I have a question, she is easily available. I would highly recommend her.

Debra came on during a very busy transition period and instantly proved herself to be an extremely asset. She immediately dug into the work, took ownership of the problems, and created or improved workflow and the quality of reporting. I would work with Debra again.

Michael Croteau,
CORE Education and Consulting Solutions
We have worked with Debra for two years now. We engaged her services (on a recommendation) because our previous bookkeeper retired - and even though it was in QuickBooks, there was still plenty to learn about our business and our terms of art, and how we handled certain unusual transactions. She dug in and handled it with aplomb. She was never shy about asking questions and came to know our business in a very short time. Besides being an accomplished professional, she is also a genuinely nice person, and is easy to work with. I recommend Debra without hesitation.

We love working with DLM Bookkeeping Solutions. Debra makes the whole process easy which is exactly what we need for our busy financial planning company. Trust is also a must as we are giving her access to all of our financial documents, and we trust her wholeheartedly. Any time we need any reports drawn or questions answered she is on top of it and always willing to jump on a call to go over anything that needs further review. We are grateful to Debra and DLM Bookkeeping Solutions and look forward to many more years of working together.
