Here are a few of the most common questions faith-driven leaders ask before partnering with ThynkGrow.

Do you offer traditional bookkeeping or compliance services?

Answer: Yes — financial integrity is the foundation of everything we do. Our core mission is to provide accurate bookkeeping with strategic oversight, so you always know where your money is going. For organizations that only need compliance or reconciliation work, we offer our low-cost Data Integrity Service Track (Stewardship Plan)

— perfect for small businesses and nonprofits that just need clean, reliable books.

What is the difference between a Bookkeeper and a Strategic Partner?

Answer: A bookkeeper records the past. A Strategic Partner looks ahead — using clean data to forecast, design systems, and guide key financial decisions. It’s the difference between knowing what happened and knowing what to do next.

What is the ROI on your Operational Strategy Audit?

Answer: The $1,500 setup fee is an investment that often pays for itself in the first month. Most clients uncover revenue leaks, unbilled work, or inefficiencies that quickly offset the cost — while gaining the systems and visibility needed for lasting clarity.

Who is the ideal client for Strategic Stewardship?

Answer: Faith-driven business owners and nonprofit leaders who want to bring order, accountability, and peace to their finances. Whether you’re scaling a business, managing ministry funds, or leading a small organization — if your systems feel scattered or unclear, this process brings focus and confidence.

How do you guarantee financial integrity and system stability?

Answer: We build resilient operational systems rooted in integrity. Our team manages QuickBooks Online for financial clarity and maintains your lead or donation tracking automations to ensure that every dollar — and every opportunity — is accounted for.

What exactly is included in the one-time Setup Fee?

Answer: The setup fee covers your executive audit, full QBO structure review, job costing or fund tracking design, and installation of your custom operational system. You’ll walk away with clean books, automated systems, and a roadmap for sustainable growth.

What Executive Experience do you bring to my business?

Answer: With over 30 years of business ownership and 20 years in pastoral and operational leadership, I bring both executive experience and ministry insight. This is hands-on, real-world wisdom — not just certification — helping you lead with clarity, integrity, and confidence.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP & STRATEGIC OVERSIGHT

Toby Carnes

My life’s work is built on a passion for stewardship, integrity, and clarity.

After 30+ years as a business owner and ministry leader, I’ve seen firsthand how financial chaos can hold back growth and peace — in both businesses and nonprofits.

Today, I help leaders bring order to their finances and operations through practical systems, clear reporting, and Christ-centered strategy.

Before founding ThynkGrow, I built and scaled multiple ventures — including two eCommerce brands that grew past $1 million in their first year — and consulted for companies managing over $20 million in annual revenue.

With 20 years of pastoral and executive experience, I bring a steady blend of strategy and stewardship to every client partnership.

My mission is simple:

to help entrepreneurs and nonprofit leaders gain clarity, operate with integrity, and lead with peace of mind.
