Improving expectation setting

"In 2019, we want to fine-tune and document our internal processes. This will not only help us grow our team and have everybody on the same page, but it will also allow us to help our clients understand our processes so they know what to expect."

— Michael Levy, CEO & Co-Founder, Bean Counter 4 Hire

Empowering the community

"In 2019, our goal is to continue on our mission to educate and empower those around us. One action item we have set forth in Q1 2019 is the launch of our 90-day training program on Kninja.net that will help accounting professionals get their employees up to speed quickly on cloud best practices. I've heard so many times over the last year that it is a real struggle for them to scale because they don't have the time to invest in training. We are excited about solving that pain point for so many!"

— Juliet Aurora, CEO, AIS Solutions

Achieving growth

"One actionable goal for Say Yes To Profits is to scale the firm. With online technology such as Hubdoc, QuickBooks Online, and Teamwork, we can focus on a niche market and begin servicing clients throughout the United States. By forming strategic partnerships and streamlining our systems and processes, our goal is to further promote client satisfaction and accelerate new client acquisition."

— Octavia Conner, CEO, Say Yes To Profits

Promoting internal development

"In an accounting practice as small as ours, there’s no way to follow the traditional path of ‘climbing the ladder’. In 2019, our New Year’s resolution is to focus on our team and our practice culture to allow choice based on individual interest. We will be redeveloping each person’s role to allow for personal growth and new challenges. This redefining of our roles will allow us to continue to grow our Bookkeepers Bootcamp and include an additional version of the program to help even more professionals in our industry."

— Tanya Hilts, CPB, President & Founder, Cloud Bookkeeping Services

Focusing on client success

"We are dedicated to helping our clients succeed by mastering our craft to provide tailored accounting solutions that guide, support, and allow our clients to focus on growing their businesses. In 2019, we aim to refine our service and expand our client base by continuously improving and leveraging new technologies."

— Tommy Gunawan, Co-Founder, MG & Co. CPAs Professional Corporation

Improving clients’ business insights

"One of our goals for 2019 at Beyond Balanced Books Inc is to help our clients answer the question, 'What story is your business trying to tell you?'. One way we plan to accomplish this is by offering simple analytics on a handful of financial KPIs to get the conversation started."

— Cindy Hovig, Founder & Owner, Beyond Balanced Books Inc
