Since 2010, LaMar Van Dusen has served as Director at Phoenix Management. He began the firm from his home office, where he initially built business plans for independent business owners and helped them secure critical capital they needed to start and grow their businesses. In the process, LaMar developed a distinctive service offering for business owners that connected principled accounting with attentive financial consulting.

In addition to offering full service bookkeeping and accounting as well as a range of service offerings that includes the creation of business plans, LaMar’s firm provides finance consulting, business management, government grants and strategy advisory services. The company has helped a number of Ontario companies raise funds for working capital, and helped those businesses purchase commercial properties and franchises since it was first founded.

Notably, Phoenix Management is the only company in the Greater Toronto Area that offers full service bookkeeping and corporate accounting for one monthly flat fee, a concept that is extremely new in the market and greatly simplifies the bookkeeping and accounting for the business owners. Most importantly, this fee program allows business owners the freedom to not worry about hidden fees or extra costs.

During his leisure time, LaMar enjoys a number of fitness-related activities. He engages in workout training four days a week,
