Margaret has impressed me with her excellent communication skills. She clarifies complex subjects…read morewithout an ounce of ego, follows up on tasks, and asks great questions to get to know me and my business. She really listens and organizes my needs better than I can. It's clear she has years of experience in bookkeeping. The main thing that separates Margaret from the rest is her integrity. I know I can trust her, I can rely on her to be responsive, and she's impeccable with the details of billing and pricing. I've loved working with her and have recommended her to friends already!

I truly appreciate that she is so knowledgeable as I can come to her with any question and she is able to respond pretty much off the top of her head with the answer. I highly recommend using them if you have any tax needs. Bring your information. Answer any questions. Get your resolution. What else do you want?

I've come here two years in a row and absolutely love Kristen. I read some of the other reviews and…read morewas honestly shocked what people said given I've had the exact opposite experience - twice now! She's kind, professional and very knowledgeable about all things taxes. She took time to explain to me why I owed what I owed. She also provided recommendations about what I can do differently to hopefully not owe next year. I highly support this wonderful woman owned business and encourage folks to come here. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, Kristen!

Dear Lord, I can't tell you more emphatically to RUN away from these people. I was referred to…read morethem to "clean up" my books. I was there for 4 years. In the fourth year I'm told, "your taxes have been done wrong for years and you should hire an attorney to fix it." We then discovered that they hadn't disclosed my "rental property" had in fact been . . . rented. That's 3 years of rental income . . . late. That means another check and penalties. When I complained, the douche replied - in an email cc'ing people I've never met - acting like it was MY bookkeeper's fault? I forwarded an email where we expressly stated the RENTAL PROPERTY was rented - from three years ago - and then I never heard back. IE. Their customer service is amazingly worse than their tax preparation. PISS POOR

I called six weeks ago to set an appointment with one of their CPAs. The only time I got a call…read moreback was a week after my initial call asking me to put a credit card on file with them so when one of their CPAs finally got around to calling me or making an appointment, they'd have a way to charge me (sure, okay.) Well, they never bothered to reach out after that. I guess I'll call a different firm that has the capacity to take on a new client. What a waste of time.

We are so blessed to have Melissa doing our bookkeeping. She is very knowledgeable and can figure…read moreout any kind of complicated problem. Whenever we have had any kind of problem she was easy to get in touch with and was able to handle things quickly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that feels lost trying to run a business, and stay organized. Overall she is made the whole process much less stressful.

I own a Carpet & Tile Cleaning business that started things very.. unorthodox. On top of that, I…read morelearned how to use quick-books with google and did the books myself for my entire first year. Needless to say, i needed alot of help making sure everything was done correctly, and fixing the things that were not done correctly. IAIN was amazingly thorough and answered 80% of my questions just with his initial summary of my account. He knew things and was able to help with matters that the lawyer who helped with my incorporation did not even know (and fix things my lawyer did wrong). Iain listens, is knowledgeable, patient, thorough, and most importantly, makes me feel confident that i am not going to have any issues with the IRS for the rest of my life. Thanks so much Iain! I look foreword to a very long business relationship!

I asked him to tell me a bit about what kind of services he was able to do to assist people in my scenario (after he said it was something that they could assist with), to which he rebuttaled with "maybe we aren't a good fit" and hung up. Class act right there.

When I first got introduced to Patrice back in 2020, I was at a point where I knew my books weren't…read morewhere they needed to be, but I didn't really want to deal with them myself. I'm a glass artist and had been doing that for 25 years, so my focus was always on the work, not the numbers. At the time, we had grown to about five employees, and suddenly I was dealing with payroll, receipts, and all the day-to-day transactions on top of everything else. It was new, and honestly, it felt like a lot to keep organized, especially knowing it all had to be ready come tax time. My CPA suggested bringing in a bookkeeper, which was Patrice, and that was really the push I needed to admit I couldn't keep juggling it all on my own. Going into it, I didn't really know what to expect - if the cost would be worth it versus doing it on our own. Like any business owner, there's always some hesitation about bringing someone new into your business and adding that cost. But that faded pretty quickly. Everything was explained step by step by Patrice and it just felt easy. Communication with her was solid, whether it was a quick email or getting on the phone, and over time I stopped worrying about that side of the business altogether. It gave me back the time and mental space to focus on my actual work. Looking back now, it's been six or seven years, and it's been a good investment that's worked out well for us.

When I was launching my business, everything was moving fast right out of the gate. We had…read moresignificant revenue commitments and a lot of moving parts that needed to come together all at once, especially on the accounting side. I needed someone who could step in immediately and handle invoicing, vendor bills, and commissions without me having to manage them closely. The last thing I needed during that phase was another person to oversee, and I was already juggling enough trying to get the business off the ground. From the start, working together just felt easy. You were able to make sense of my manual system quickly and get everything running smoothly without a lot of back and forth. That took a huge weight off my plate and let me stay focused on growing the business. At this point, I honestly couldn't imagine running things without your support. Everything from bookkeeping to payroll and compliance feels handled, and if I ever thought I might lose that support, I'd probably beg you to stay!
