Maureen was an invaluable subject matter expert and professional in a recent accounting system migration from a manual process to a cloud-based solution. The process has been seamless with a great knowledgeable person who proactively managed communications, training, project status tracking and a personal touch through the whole project. The pricing was extremely affordable and well itemized with great transparency and tracking. I'd highly recommend Maureen and Firefly Consulting Services to any SME, and Perpetu8 will be using their services in future. We have already recommended them for other work in our networks and supply chain. More...

Since working with Firefly Consulting Services I have had a better handle on the financial aspect of my business. I am able to balance and separate the business finances from my personal finances and for the first time since opening the business I can make financial plans. The service is exceptional and goes beyond expectation. Thank you, Firefly Consulting Services. More...

17 Squared Interiors is a small design and decorating company run from home. We grew steadily over 5 years and reached a point where the admin and especially the financial side became unmanageable for one person doing everything from designing beautiful interiors and making deliveries to running a household. Firefly helped us navigate a lot of obstacles and helped us establish a workable budget through careful planning. This has in turn helped us to re-focus and review our priorities. As a small business, Firefly helped us realise that we are not alone in the small business struggles, and that these struggles can be overcome. More...
