I'm a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor with additional certification in Intuit's Point of Sale (POS) and Enterprise (mid-market) software, a former "COO" , & was nominated for the City of Seattle Mayor's Small Business Award in 2009.
I provide customized, in-person, and one-on-one training, tutoring, classes, instruction, seminars, private lessons, and online and telephone help and bookkkeeping and accounting support at your pace and skill level based on what you know (or don't) at your office, quiet coffee/tea shop, or my place in Greater Seattle.
Why fight traffic to attend a class and go at the slowest person's pace (yawn) (do you really want to ask delicate questions about your business in front of others?) when I will make house calls like an old fashioned doctor and come to you to make you financially well and software literate.
here is nothing more fun than watching someone's eyes light up as they gain the self-confidence by making their financial or accounting software work for them instead of the other way around and learn how to produce financial reports that tell them how their business or personal finances are really doing.
And so they don't make the mistakes several of my small business clients made by (1) creating their chart of accounts for a C corporation when they were a LLC which screwed up their tax accounting; (2) setting up their credit card as an expense account instead of as a credit card; (3) setting up their vendors as customers and vice versa; (4) recording all their payments individually instead of matching them up with the actual bank deposit; and not updating their version of the program.
Do you need someone to set up or check your business or start up's chart of accounts, financial records, or books? Have you slowly come to the realization that you don't know how to use your accounting software and it is affecting your bottom line? Has your company grown to the point where it would be nice to have someone come in to review what you are doing or have done and then train, tutor, and instruct you and your staff and let you make more money by doing what you really enjoy doing which is also billable?
Or would you rather sit in the dark?
Well, let's chat for 30 minutes about what I can do for you, what might be your best choice of financial management software - sometimes the answer may surprize you) and to bounce ideas off of.
You've hired an attorney, accountant, insurance broker, business coach, SEO expert, marketing pro, and others to help you start and manage your business. Shouldn't you hire someone to teach you how to effectively use the accounting software that you'll be relying on to discover how well you are (or aren't) doing?
As someone who has been a bookeeper and ran the day to day aspects of a medium sized business, I've been in your shoes.
My company is a Better Business Bureau Accredited Business. I am a member of the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program, the Intuit Accountant's, Quicken, and TurboTax Inner Circle which advises the company on ways to improve their products (I recently found a bug in QuickBooks Pro 2008 and suggested a fix) and make them more consumer friendly (gasp!).
I have been told that I am "very calm and patient") with humans and animals (dogs and cats like me).
Let me explain the best way to establish your company's books including mapping tax lines to your chart of accounts to make it easier to file your income taxes and how to use financial software effectively by adopting certain financial procedures.
I enjoy working with frustrated business owners who want to learn how to use the program (or others) but feel lost, don't kn
