ACCOUNTING
Better numbers for better business
A lot of accountants forget (or never learned) that accounting information is supposed to be useful to people who aren't accountants. If your business numbers aren't useful, then neither is your accountant.
I know accounting bores most people to tears, and I used to be one of them. I actually changed majors in college to avoid suffering through a second accounting class.
Once I started working, I saw how valuable it was to understand the numbers behind the business. So I went back to school for an accounting degree, armed with a purpose.
In addition to my CPA license, I hold the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) credential. While the CPA exams focus on the technical details behind tax, auditing, and financial statements, the CMA is more focused on using that information to make strategic business decisions.
If you're looking for more from your business numbers, let's talk.

if your numbers aren't useful, THEN neither is your accountant
