I never…read moreimagined working with someone to help me organize would make me feel so happy, I'm a Virgo, aren't I supposed to be good at this naturally? Well, what a great decision I made- zero regrets! I bought a coworker a gift and was running late to wrap it. In the past there's no way I would've been able to do it in the time that it took me to do it the other night. I wasn't stressed. I wasn't intimidated- everything was just where I knew you helped me place it. Gift wrapped, went to bed, but not before taking pictures. I know I will work with you again and I'm looking forward to it! Thank you!

You will always learn something new on every session with her. Crystal is an amazing person overall and it's been such a pleasure having her in my corner as a business coach. Every business person should have at least a few months worth of business consultation with Crystal. I highly recommend working with Coach Crystal and Run Right Consulting.

Chris at FlexTax has been my tax advisor for about three years now, and I can't recommend him…read morehighly enough. He's incredibly thorough and detail-oriented - he double and even triple checks everything to make sure your return is accurate and that he has all the right information. He's also very responsive and flexible with scheduling, which has made it easy to fit tax meetings around a busy workday. Chris really shines with more complex situations. He specializes in startups and equity compensation (ISOs, RSUs, etc.), as well as investment portfolios, so if you work at a startup or have a more complicated tax situation, you're in great hands. He takes the time to walk through everything, explains complex issues clearly, and makes the whole process feel much less stressful. He goes above and beyond by looking at prior years and making amendments if necessary to put you in a better position for future tax years. I originally started working with Chris based on a friend's recommendation, and after three years as a client, I'm very glad I did. If you're a startup employee or founder, or anyone dealing with equity and investments, I highly recommend Chris at FlexTax.

This firm went from exceptional to completely unprofessional overnight…read more I stayed with them for years solely because of Sam, who provided outstanding service. After the ownership change, it's clear that level of care is gone. What replaced it is a rigid, impersonal system that treats clients like transactions rather than relationships. They failed to notify clients of a major policy change regarding tax extensions until just days before the deadline--putting me at risk of non-compliance. When I raised concerns, their response was essentially: "This is our policy now, and if you don't like it, go somewhere else." No accountability. No attempt to fix the situation. No access to leadership. Just scripted responses from a support team. For a firm that benefited from years of loyalty and referrals, this is an incredibly poor way to treat clients. Avoid. UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO OWNER : Your response proves my point. After years of automatically handling my extensions, you changed the process right before a deadline, offered no real support, and told me to pay $240 or figure it out myself. Had I not followed up, I could have been penalized -- and now you're trying to turn it around and frame it as my fault by calling me "not engaged." After years of loyalty and referrals, this wasn't a transition -- it was a downgrade to a transactional model.

So I began my journey with Contractors Coach in October of '23. I had been in the remodeling…read morebusiness for 9 years and it seemed to continue to get worse. 250k in debt with a secondary lender at 20 plus percent, consistently not being able to pay my company bills on time, barely making payroll week to week, it was ugly and getting worse by the month. I knew I needed help but how the heck was I able to afford it and what did they know that I didn't after all these years in business?? But I was at the end of my business rope and getting worse so I took a gamble and called Contractors Coach. After an interview describing my issues they set me up with Tom Pearson and honestly, it changed my business life (which changed my personal life). Today is May 29, 2024 and everything has changed. I have paid my (I kid you NOT) secondary note off, have gone from negative financial numbers to a gross profit of 30%, total expenses under 14%, and a net income of over 15%. Here's a tip, if you don't understand what these numbers mean (like I didn't 6 months ago) you will continue to struggle. Among other things, Tom taught me to read my financials which helped me understand what was wrong and what was right. He immediately identified a flaw in my estimating process then week after week we tutored the financials until I could understand where my money was going and how to make the numbers work. There is no quick fix when you are in as deep as I was. But having an understanding of how to climb out of the hole and the patience to put in the right financial practices over the course of only 6 months is absolutely remarkable. Kind, witty, knowledgeable, non-judgmental, he's a wonderful balance to get you on the right road. But I have to say there is ONE huge issue with the guy, sadly, he's a 49ers fan. Thankfully I was able to overlook that fault and focus on his lessons and it changed me. God Bless you Tom Pearson. Go Lions!

About a year ago I was struggling because my business did not have systems and there was no coherent culture in the business. When I met with the coaches at The Contractors Coach I felt they were really interested in helping me. During the coaching sessions we addressed the problems quickly. I learned how to create an effective company culture, and it helped weed out some people who were really bad employees. Our workflow is way better now, we are more efficient, and our profits are definitely up. We are twice as profitable on each job as we were a year ago. Now I'm confident we can double the size of our company over the next two years. And if you are considering growing your business - "You'd be stupid not to work with them."
