Are you confused as to why your online accounting software looks completely off? Are you fed up with not being able to get a straight answer from the customer service providers that the software connects you to? Well, we should chat....
I specialize in small business accounting, specifically general contractors and retail, with a focus on multiple accounting platform knowledge and forensic/clean up accounting. I have become familiar with Quickbooks Online, Xero, Wave Financial, Freshbooks, and Sage 100 contractor to name a few. As the market for "automated" accounting platforms expands I believe that this "automation" has misled people into thinking that the accounting software is capable of doing and understanding more than it is. This leads to a lot of quarterly and year and panic when business owners and individuals realize they've overpaid or underpaid for taxes, that their expenses haven't been properly tracked, that their balance sheet is in shambles, and the "professionals" that their accounting software connect them to were given 3 months of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice training and can barely understand what the software that they've been labeled as being "professionals" at.
I've seen this time and time again with every single online accounting platform and I believe my knowledge of how to utilize and organize the power of online accounting software is an asset to my clients. I provide monthly reporting and quarterly services that range from profit analysis, return on investment analysis, account organization for cost benefit analysis, and etc... My collaboration and relationship with clients is important to me and my response time and quality of my response stands head and shoulders above mega corporations and their quick to hire call center "professionals".
I love to see my clients books clean and organized, working for them, and also for them to be able to utilize all of the benefits of powerful online accounting platforms. I am a competent and patient technician who will work with you to ensure that your monthly, quarterly, and year end goals are met and exceeded.
