What kind of accounting services do you provide?
The accounting services that I provide concentrate on small businesses, individual taxation and not-for-profit. These services include all phases of taxation (income tax, sales tax and payroll taxes) plus financial reporting. I am also adept with accounting software i.e. Quickbooks.
Why is it so important for businesses to hire a great accountant?
There are many reasons that a business should hire an accountant.
First, this provides the business owners more opportunity to focus on their business and their customers, rather than the administrative matters.
Secondly, the accountant provides the knowledge and skills to enhance profitability and legitimately mitigate the tax burden so the business owners can keep more of what they've earned.
Thirdly, a good accountant will have many business contacts which can serve the business in other disciplines.
What do you love most about your job?
The best part of working with small businesses and not-for-profit entities is assisting in their growth and success. This is accomplished by becoming a trusted advisor to the client.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Larger firms are focused on their own profitability, sometimes at the expense of service to the client. As a sole proprietor, my satisfaction is in the quality of service provided.
Why should our clients choose you?
My philosophy is two fold;
1.) Provide the best service possible
2.) Charge a fair fee.
