ABOUT US
About Valhalla Enterprise Management
At Valhalla Enterprise Management, we believe that financial services should be a strategic advantage for small businesses, not just a necessity. Our founder, Erik Oslund, is a CPA and MBA in Finance from the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management. With over 10 years of experience supporting small businesses across various sectors, including retail, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology, Erik is passionate about transforming financial services into a catalyst for growth and success.
Valhalla, in Norse mythology, is the revered hall where brave Viking warriors are honored for their courage, resilience, and relentless pursuit of excellence in their lives. This concept resonates deeply with Erik’s Swedish heritage and personal admiration for these virtues. Vikings were known for their daring raids and exploration of new lands, much like today’s entrepreneurs who disrupt industries and set new standards despite facing tough challenges. Just as Vikings faced stronger rivals, modern entrepreneurs compete with corporate giants in their fields, using innovation and teamwork to succeed in competitive markets. In today’s world, Valhalla inspires entrepreneurs to be innovative and persistent, seeking new opportunities and building strong partnerships.
By embracing the spirit of Valhalla, we aim to inspire entrepreneurs with integrity, determination, and a steadfast commitment to their goals. Our goal is to provide smart financial advice that helps small businesses thrive, reflecting the same brave spirit that drove Vikings to explore new lands and achieve victory against all odds.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower small businesses by providing smart financial advice that drives innovation, resilience, and strategic growth. We are committed to delivering customized financial solutions that scale with your business, ensuring you have the expertise needed at every stage of your journey.
The Market Service Gap
We understand that small businesses often struggle to find the right level of financial support. Traditional local CPA firms may lack the advanced services needed for more complex financial management, while large firms often overlook smaller clients. At Valhalla, we bridge this gap by offering high-level financial services tailored specifically for small businesses, ensuring you receive the attention and expertise you deserve.
