Mike is knowledgeable, professional, reliable and his integrity is invaluable. Mike was recommended by people I trust. Sara S

I don't know about you, but I find bookkeeping really dull. Mike and his team take that drudgery off my hands and produce complete reports that give me great insight into my business. And they save me a ton of time when it comes to taxes. Super professional personnel and I always feel that my information and data is well-protected. These folks make accounting and tax filing a breeze! read more

I experienced 5 Star service, quality, and value from the moment I reached out to Mike Hecker. My business was going through an audit and my previous bookkeeping service was no longer available. Mike got back to me promptly. In spite of this being a busy time of the year, Mike agreed to take me on as a client. He personally handled getting me set up. This meant bringing my books up to date to in a very short time in order for me to receive a satisfactory audit. He connected me to one of his bookkeepers the same day. She committed to meeting the audit deadline and did, much to my relief. Accessible, responsive, proactive, professional, a pleasure to work with. A 5 Star experience. read more

If I could give MH Consulting 10 stars I would! Not only did Mike hold our hand as we transitioned away from our previous bookkeeper, but he went out of his way to explain everything clearly and concisely...then offered to kick my butt on a run, bike or swim!!! My emails and phone calls were responded to within the business day, often times within the hour. We feel fortunate to have found his company! He's a great bookkeeper and a better human. Thank you MH Consulting! read more

Since hiring MH Bookkeeping to do my small business bookkeeping, I have a sense of confidence and calm that I've never felt before in my financial management. Before, every month my to-do list grew...it was easy to procrastinate. My business was flourishing and I was doing what I love to do... and bookkeeping always fell wayside. The shadow hanging over me was constant and yet I couldn't seem to make the time to manage my books. Now, every month I give a big sigh of relief to see my month-end numbers come in from my bookkeeper at MH! Tax time is now a breeze and everything is in order and ready to go. What a relief! Thanks Mike and Team MH! read more

Mike and Lisa are amazing to work with and make Accounting seem so easy! They quickly set up QuickBooks for our small business and entered ALL the transactions that I had been wanting to enter for months. They are super easy to work with, trustworthy and extremely responsive. Our business records are now organized properly and up to date. Their reporting is excellent and I highly recommend them! read more

We have worked with many bookkeeping services during the 30 years we have had our small business. After working with MH Consulting & Bookkeeping over this past year, we now have peace of mind that our books are in order. He and his team are meticulous and conscientious in their work. Their reputation precedes them and are known by many of the local CPAs and related industries. When I mentioned the name of our bookkeeping service, the common responses is "You are in really good hands!" I was referred by a financial coach and while his practice was full, but he found a way to take our account. I am always amazed at how responsive Mike and his staff are. While I know we are not even close ot their largest account, we always feel treated as a priority. I am so grateful to have them overseeing this critical important part of our business. read more

Mike Hecker's firm was referred to me with high marks and I now see why. At first, when I found out that someone on his team would be handling my business rather than Mike, I was concerned, but I soon realized he carefully matched me with a member of his team with whom I would connect - Maureen Malliaras. She is terrific! Maureen does an excellent and thorough job maintaining my company's books and all finance-related needs of the company. She is funny and smart and easy-going. I thoroughly enjoy speaking with her and actually look forward to my interactions with her - which is amazing since I loathe dealing with the finance side of my business. Thanks, Mike and a big thank you to Maureen!! Victoria read more

Mike and his team are fantastic! Last year when I came to Mike our book was in desperate need for correcting. They were able to get it all corrected quickly while also helping to teach me how to properly do the accounting for the future. I recently contacted Mike again to ask about some questions and he was quick to respond. He talked me through all my questions as well as did a quick review of our book to make sure it was in good order. If you've any account needs or questions Mike and his team are a great place to start. read more

THE BEST........ I've used/known Mike for years. I run a busy and growing automotive shop and Mike helped me to make sense of my books and helped setup/train the staff on proper Quickbooks usage. He gave me some direction on where i should go with my biz. model and helped me streamline my record keeping. He has saved me time, money and stress. A pleasure to work with. Thanks, Mike. read more

I'm on the Operations Committee of a Bay Area Non-Profit and the President asked me to share this review of MH Consulting & Bookkeeping on Yelp since he does not have a Yelp Account: "MH Consulting & Bookkeeping has been a complete game-changer for us. They are one of the most critical and powerful supports to our organization and to me as an executive. Mike Hecker is so tremendously generous with his varied talents that it is hard to concisely summarize exactly why he has been so important but I will include a few highlights below. Early on, Mike brought his signature calm and rigorous analysis to our work and helped identify paths forward in a number of strategic ways, and he connected me with brilliant people in his network that extended his impact even further. Without hesitation, Mike naturally and wholeheartedly seeks to help everyone around him. As a bookkeeper, Mike quickly turned an important business area that was a source of stress into one in which I now have a deep sense of security around. Mike has also put together a great team around him. Since we started working with MH Consulting & Bookkeeping, Matt Kernan has been a phenomenal bookkeeper for us. His attentiveness and dedication to doing an excellent job every time is paired with a genuine warmth and consistently positive attitude. Both Matt and Mike provide patient and skilled explanations of questions that come up around our finances and bookkeeping, and I constantly learn from them as they support our work. I feel very fortunate to have the support of MH Consulting & Bookkeeping!" read more

Mike was great with helping me clean up my books! Really patient and thorough. Definitely recommend!!

Meeting with Mike Hecker was such a pleasant experience. Mike is easy to work with, speaks our language and gave us the advice and support we were looking for setting up our QuickBooks. As a brand new start-up company we had no idea the amount of back office management we would need. So, before we found ourselves swamped and overwhelmed, we contacted MH Consulting and Bookkeeping Group, Inc. Mike quickly reviewed our set-up, made a few adjustments, and advised how to manage our day-to-day records. He is efficient, friendly and professional. But most of all, Mike made us feel comfortable and appreciated. Thanks, Mike. It's going to great having you on the team! read more

Mike H. and Matt K. have been a huge help with our business. When I first met with Mike, I explained that we needed a company that could to take over a bunch of the financial work for me, be proactive in reminding me to stay on the things I need to stay on, and make recommendations for how we can learn from Quickbooks and use it to improve my business. Mike understood my needs exactly and Matt K. worked with me one-on-one to implement everything. A couple of his recommendations have been complete life-changers for me. I recommend them without reservation - nobody else has come close. read more

We were referred to MH Consulting & Bookkeeping by our new CPA in 2018. I had struggled for years trying to manage the books for my partner, who is an independent contract musician, while working full time and having two active kids. Getting our financial house in order finally, I jumped on the recommendation and Mike Hecker was immediately warm and welcoming. He partnered us with Maureen Malliaras on his team and she is fabulous! She sends me monthly reconciliations with Ask My Accountant questions that I sometimes forget to answer for a month. She never judges and responds immediately when I do finally get around to helping figure out the accounts to book to. Year end work is always completed on time and Maureen helps me figure out exactly what our CPA is looking for at tax time. Mike and his team are 100% the way to go if you are looking for a bookkeeping company that will keep you up to date, be incredibly responsive and feel like a partner in the sometimes overwhelming world of managing financials. I can't recommend them enough! read more

Mike is an absolute life-saver! He has been working with me and doing our books for a year now. He came in and completely organized my Quickbooks system and made it make sense to me. He has even walked me through things on Quickbooks that I didn't know how to do, step-by-step, over the phone. Not only is he a great bookkeeper, he also has a great mind for business and has helped guide our business in the right direction. Mike is very attentive to detail, professional and a pleasure to work with. I would very highly recommend him for any bookkeeping needs! I don't know what I would do without him. Thanks Mike!

I highly recommend Mike and team for professional, courteous and timely handling of your requirements. Due to a divorce I needed quick, timely and accurate delivery of personal financial data for my case. Not only did Mike exceed my expectations - his analysis discovered fraudulent use of a charge card saving me a large sum that somehow I had not detected. We won our case and Mike played a major role. Thank you Mike... read more

Mike has been doing my bookkeeping for about 3 years. They do a fantastic job and they work with my CPA at tax time. I really appreciate the great service they provide. I would highly recommend them! read more

Mike sat me down and taught me how to classify my expenses in Quickbooks online, and gave me some very valuable pointers in the process. I had a lot of trouble figuring out the control account from Redwood Credit Union and how that should be handled, and he showed me. Now my books are reconciled, it is no longer a chore, and I am very grateful. Thank you Mike! read more

Mike is awesome. He gets my highest recommendation! In a few short easy sessions he taught me how to use Quickbooks online for my small business, patiently and thoroughly explaining every step of the process - all over the phone! He was able to answer every question I had and walk me through every piece of the process and now I do it all on my own and it's easy! He's clear, concise and has a gentle sense of humor so the whole experience was not only rewarding but kinda fun. Work with Mike. You'll be super happy you did and end up with a firm and confident grasp of the bookkeeping process for your small business. If I ever need a part time outside bookkeeper for our company, I will absolutely reach out to Mike. You'll be glad if you do too. read more

I met Mike through a networking group. I just started my business, and he has been a great resource to help me start off on the right path. He fast, and very patient. read more

Mike and his team are amazing! I actually found MH Consulting on Yelp about a year ago. I'm a solo law practitioner and healthcare consultant, and I had been using excel to handle my books (not ideal, to say the least!). Mike was extremely helpful in my transition I tried to make the transition myself, but I didn't have the time or patience to figure out the quirks of Quickbooks Online. Mike was super efficient, kind, helpful, extremely knowledgeable, and he will never charge you more than the time he needs to address your issues. I really should have hired him years ago - and I recommend him without reservation. He's truly the best! read more

As a business strategy consultant, I've worked with a number of bookkeepers over the years. MH Consulting and Bookkeeping is one of the best bookkeeping firms I've ever encountered. Mike and his Team are incredibly knowledgeable, detail oriented and accurate. However, what truly sets MH apart is the firm's understanding of small business. Most bookkeepers just prepare the books for taxes with little to no understanding of the client's business. MH goes far beyond that. Mike and his Team truly care about their clients' businesses, take the time to understand their clients' goals and then present financial information in meaningful ways. This approach allows their clients to actually use their financial information to make informed business decisions. I've worked with MH on mutual clients and used them for my own business. I highly recommend MH Consulting and Bookkeeping! read more

A year after I started my traveling oyster bar company, my mom gifted me a Quickbooks Consultation and Business Set-up Package with Mike. I have been in business for 9 years and have since opened a restaurant and I can say, with out a doubt, that utilizing that gift certificate was one of the best business decision I have ever made! Mike is there for me every year to help me get my books looking good for my CPA and advise me.... and well be a friend. Every year I try to do-it my slef and I call him in to fix all my mistakes. He is a cool, calm, collected and funny person - a must have in any entrepreneurs tool box :) read more

I needed some help from a bookkeeper to set up our business so I called Mike Hecker at MH Consulting & bookkeeping. Mike was very accommodating and worked with my schedule to find the first available appointment. Our initial meeting was fantastic! He gave me great, no-nonsense advice and because he is so flexible we were able to come up with a game plan tailored to my needs. I am so happy with his service as Mike has significantly simplified my work life! I cannot recommend MH Consulting & Bookkeeping highly enough! Thanks Mike! read more

When it comes to bookkeeping and all of the Federal and State forms that need to be filled out for my business each year, I cringe. You need a Masters degree to understand how to fill them out. I knew Mike and his business but I was also given several personal recommendations about him and decided to seek his help. I had asked my bookkeeper to fill out and file some state forms, she lacked the knowledge to do them and my accountant didn't want to be bothered. When I asked Mike if he knew how and would be willing to file these forms that people over the years have not been willing to do and in reality, I'm not sure if I've ever had them done correctly, he immediately took on the task with great efficiency. He showed more knowledge than anyone I've worked with. His price was extremely reasonable and he made it stress free for me. I completely trust Mike. read more

WOW! Just met with Mike and was blow away how much my last person screwed up my QuickBooks file. He knew what he was talking about and explained everything very well. I found our new bookkeeper! read more

I started new new business business this year and I needed to set up my Quickbooks. Mike and I spoke and decided to do Quickbooks online, so my CPA could look at the books as well. Mike set it all up and helped me link it to my account. He is an excellent accountant and my CPA was very please with his work as well. He was so helpful getting me trained up on how to use it, etc. It is great that Mike, my CPA and I can see the account at the same time and work together virtually! Thanks Mike! read more

I am the treasurer for a small non-profit organization and we started using QuickBooks. There were some problems with the accounts that I could not clean up so I looked for someone to help. I called Mike and he responded quickly. He suggested several fixes, but I could not resolve the issues. He went through our accounts and quickly cleaned up my problems. He is easy to communicate with and his fees are reasonable. I would recommend him to anyone needing QB support. read more

There is not a bookkeeping question Mike cannot answer. It's obvious Mike spent plenty of time studying bookkeeping and knows it inside and out. The most difficult part was getting me to gt him my paper work! Once he had it, things get done fast and accurate! Thanks mike. read more

First, I don't want to write this review and tell everyone our secret weapon! Mike and his team are amazing!! He helped our law firm solve problems we didn't even know we had!! Mike has helped us get on track, and into the year 2013, painlessly! He is able to take on rush jobs and get the information our clients need with amazing accuracy and speed. You know he's good when I can hand him a box of "misc financial docs" and he comes back with a fabulous spreadsheet with exactly the info we needed!! I honestly don't know how we functioned without him all these years! read more

Mike did an excellent job teaching us about how to use quickbooks - we intend for now to do the up-keep ourselves and he gave us the tools and knowledge to run the system ourselves. He is patient, has great follow-up and is very friendly and professional! read more

I can't say enough about the service and quality of service he provides. He really knows his stuff! So I don't have to... read more
