our company

Our Vision

The Bacana Plan is a virtual team that offers fractional COO services, personal chief of staff services, & standalone bookkeeping services. We are a socially responsible company dedicated to inspiring trust, performing with care, sustaining our environment, and living life outside the box.

Our Three Favorite Words

Ease. Guess what? Life doesn’t have to be a struggle. Our days don’t have to be stress-filled. We can move around in this fast-paced world with a calm center, poised for inspiration and action. That’s what we aspire to at The Bacana Plan, a sense of ease that keeps us at the top of our game. We aspire to help our clients maintain that as well.

Efficiency. Your time is valuable. Our time is valuable too. So let’s save some time together. Time savers: being organized, setting realistic (and exciting) goals, focusing on one task at a time, and crossing off that to-do list with the help of a friendly team of people.

Awareness. Each of our lives affects many other lives. So where is that precious energy going? How are our choices affecting our own well-being and the well-being of this planet? What business practices are we supporting with the products & services we buy? How do we live lives on purpose, knowing how our many unique parts become an integrated whole? Seeking awareness is an on-going journey and exploration for all of us.

our founder

Naomi Peters

Naomi loves the platypus. It’s an animal that is comprised of seemingly odd parts to make a unique and awesome whole. Bill like a duck, furry mammal, lays eggs, spends much time under water & some time on land, webbed feet, venomous spurs (for the males), and the state animal of New South Wales, Australia.

Now let’s look at Naomi’s brain… A snapshot from the foundational youth era years: high school valedictorian, Latin club, math team, drama club, honor society, Governor’s School for biology, student council, community volunteer, not to mention all the various awards, advanced classes, and other clubs. So what are you meant to take away from this? Total geekdom, of course. But really, this is the foundation of Naomi’s brain – a deep love for language & literature, an excitement by numbers and precise details, an inner well full to the brim of the arts & creativity, an abiding enthusiasm for science & nature, a natural affinity for leadership & clarity, and a throughline of service.

Added to that foundation are decades of experience & further learning in a number of fields: organization & administrative skills, technical gadgetry & software, business strategies & structure, financial order wizardry, and a lot of teaching.

With Bacana, Naomi can let their multi-gifted self come out to play. As a self-taught “tech geek,” they have a real knack for translating complicated jargon into relatable language. As an artist and communicator, they are an outside-the-box thinker who gives practical advice with a creative flare. Having plenty of martial arts, dance training, and motorcycle riding under their belt, they have also been known to be spunky on occasion. A longtime volunteer of their time and skills, Naomi believes in giving back. A triple citizen of Australia, the US, and the UK, Naomi is a nomad who likes to nest. After a number of years feeding the nomad side, they are focusing on the nest part in Sydney, Australia.

Proudly autistic + adhd + gifted. AKA, really frickin’ neurodivergent.

The illustration shows a vase with 3 red flowers on a flat surface. On the left side are 3 hand-drawn variations on the company logo, which resembles 2 interlocked drop shapes. Each of the logos has 1 clear drop and 1 drop that is colored in.

giving back

The Bacana Plan is exceedingly proud to be a member of 1% for the Planet. This means that we are part of a growing number of entrepreneurs who commit 1% of their gross sales to environmental organizations.

We use the opportunity to involve all of our team members to determine how we, as a company, give back. At the end of each year, each team member chooses an organization from the 1% for the Planet roster, and we divide the donation accordingly.
