My books were resurrected from the dead and neglected. Blythe came, conducted a thorough interview to really try to understand my small but complicated venture, forced me to supply and organize all kinds of important historical docs, set up a brand new streamlined bookkeeping flow, and most importantly got my quickbooks to a point where I can actually open it and obtain actionable information. She will make you do your homework. But it will be worth it. read more

Blythe IS THE SMALL BUSINESS MAVEN!!! For those of you who are great at creating business and doing deals and making things happen, but whose brains do not do well with the minutiae of managing your accounts, receipts, subscriptions and bills (but also don't know who to trust to help you with this), Blythe will come to the rescue. Having previously hired a bookkeeper who gave me tasks to complete then ignored me if I did not do them (and was happy to take a fee anyway), Blythe comes as a refreshing antidote. Blythe will figure out what YOU need to get the job done, and she will support you with patience and without judgment. She will clean up any messes, put systems in place, and look at ways to streamline. She has a special gift for working with small business owners who are in growth mode, and she will help you in the here and now as well as help you plan for the future. She also really CARES, has the highest integrity and wants to see you thrive and succeed! She takes her fiduciary role as seriously as I take mine, and I have tremendous respect for her work ethic and humanity. If she has time in her schedule for you, take advantage it! She will save you time and money, and she will help you get more of your life back. read more

Blythe is the best. They worked with me to get my small business books in order and also trained me to do the monthly maintenance, data entry, etc. They were willing to tune their level of involvement to suit my budget and the specific needs of my business. Always great advice and reality checks on the state of my business affairs. Highly recommend getting in touch with Blythe and getting your books straight! read more

Blythe is fantastic. It's that simple. She has been doing my bookkeeping for about a year now and I am SOOO happy I found her. She is efficient, smart, has the substantive expertise and is easy to work with. She has a lot of experience doing accounting for larger companies so she's actually over qualified for my business (solo attorney) but she never makes me feel like my stuff is unimportant or "below her." She is an excellent value for the fee charged. I would not hesitate to recommend her. read more

If you need help getting your small business ship-shape, Blythe is a great resource. She helped me get straight in the saddle in 2015. Besides getting our books in order (she's a certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor) she set up a filing system and defined procedures that helped us stay on the right path for years, with only an annual check-up. In the process of doing all that she made sure we were compliant with all pertinent government filings etc., and found many opportunities for streamlining and saving money. This year we engaged her again to help with transitioning from QuickBooks Desktop to Quickbooks Online, also with moving to a paperless environment. I find her great to work with. read more

Blythe has not only helped our business get set-up, stay organized, and follow best practices (for accounts payable and receivable, payroll, banking, monthly reconciliation, and tax planning), she is also a great work partner who is extremely knowledgeable for answering questions or creating procedures for difficult new case scenarios. Blythe is very reliable for connecting with her clients on a routine meeting schedule, and is flexible to assist with short-notice questions or needs when they arise. Very professional. read more

I work for a small start-up and Blythe has been a godsend to us. She set up our entire accounting system from scratch--she got us set up on QuickBooks, created a filing and organizational system for us, and even gave us tips for how to increase our credit lines and other accounting best practices. Unlike a lot of bookkeepers, Blythe took the time to teach us the new system so we could use it ourselves, which is great for a small company on a budget. She is incredibly professional, and a great teacher. Plus, she is a certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor. I would highly recommend Blythe to any and everyone in need of accounting services. read more

I am part-time office manager at a small (under 10 employee) design office. Blythe has been our consultant for bookkeeping and office management for the three and a half years that I have been here. She began by straightening out our books, then guided us in setting up processes and filing systems that ensure that our financial and legal obligations are met in a timely fashion. In that process she taught the reasoning behind what she was doing, always with an eye to making her own visits less necessary. She is an excellent teacher, interested in expanding my understanding and notably calm. She has also been a constant source of tips and contacts for all facets of small business and this has saved the firm money. As noted in other reviews, thoroughly professional and a certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor. read more
