Their curated selection of contemporary designs—ranging from sleek pendants to innovative LED solutions—caters to customers seeking both style and functionality.

Challenges
Before partnering with UpCounting, MOD Lighting faced significant financial management hurdles.
Without a dedicated bookkeeper, they only closed their books at year-end, leaving them in the dark about their business’s ongoing financial health.
The lack of dedicated support made it difficult to address the specific challenges of their industry. This lack of insight hindered strategic decisions, especially regarding ad spend, and limited their ability to access financing options like mortgages or business loans.
