ABOUT US
We’re passionate about enterprise and the possibilities new technology can provide for small businesses.
Growing up in retail, our founder learned excellent business skills firsthand but knew that as cloud-based systems expanded, so had a traditional bookkeeper’s role; these days, simply processing transactions isn’t enough!
Darwin Business Solutions are here to take some of the stress off your shoulders with solutions that will grow your business.
Founder
Growing up in South Africa, John had extensive exposure to employment within the retail industry.
After graduating from university with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management, he focused on Marketing and Financial Management. He spent two years working for commercial banks!
In 2006, John and his family relocated to Canada. John started working in the trades and marine transportation industry. His experience there gave him a keen understanding of job costing. Through the years, John has always looked for ways to develop a business model that will allow him to work from anywhere in the world while maintaining the work-life balance that everybody desires.
With cloud-based technology growing by leaps and -bounds in 2020, it became possible that this might be what was needed, so John quit his 9 to 5 job — never looking back! He founded Darwin Business Solutions: a virtual bookkeeping, advisory, and digital marketing company that aims to help other business owners also enjoy more freedom.

Narek and his team, partnering with Darwin Business Solutions, designed and developed over two hundred websites in the past few years, which gave them the knowledge needed to convert your website visitors into buyers.

Marketing Manager
Jennifer holds a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences degree in communications and English from Fairfield University in Connecticut. She spent several years working as a Media Buyer and Planner in the unique setting of an international corporate barter firm. Clients included Lufthansa, The North Face, Black & Decker, and Smucker’s. This experience gave Jennifer the advantage of learning more complex accounting practices than your average media expert.
Jennifer immigrated to Canada, where she focused on raising two sons leading to a family friendship with John. He recognized that coupling her media knowledge with his bookkeeping skills could only benefit his Darwin clients. She has worn several hats for small businesses in the Prince Rupert, British Columbia area. She understood that many companies need media and marketing support but find it more advantageous to outsource as needed instead of hiring a full-time staff member.
