Your best interests at heart.

QuickBooks online does not a CPA make. The power of the platform is only as good as your understanding of accounting principles and the integrity of your entries. Commercial services and outsourced accounting offer no advice, no analytics, and no personal information. You can’t replace a brain with an app.

If you’ve got anxiety every time you check the mailbox, you’re not alone. Many studio owners suffer at the neglect of an unresponsive preparer or unanticipated tax liability. You don’t have to live this way; it’s always best to leave it to the pros.

Worry for the future can be extraordinarily intense for studio owners. After all, they have no backup paycheck, a low risk tolerance, and the worst that can happen? Well, that could mean threats to the success and sustainability of your whole business. Having a trusted ally is the perfect resolution to confidently facing the unknown.

A bookkeeper can write a check, but they are rarely empowered to make judgment calls. It’s their job to record transactions and make statements look good. That means no strategy, no tax strategies or preparation, and no interpretation. Your business deserves more. A CPA is a designation that must be earned and maintained and is checked by the balances dictated by your state license—and we do not play with that responsibility.

If your accounting firm lacks the tech; if they are not forward-thinking, nimble, or innovative; if they charge too little or only by the hour; if they put only Jr Accountants on the job and you get no upper-level facetime or they only talk to you once a year, your hard-earned money may be better invested elsewhere.  Having CPAs that understand the PYOP and Ceramic Arts industry is a game-changer.  They’ll help you with pricing, making sure your payroll budget is right and making sure there is money left for you at the end of the day.

Give yourself a break. We help you institute a contingency plan so that your studio can run without you at the helm every hour of every day. Seamless service delivery and a backup plan mean having a life. Once you free yourself from the tedious tasks that cloud your judgment about the beauty of your business, you’re free to come up with new ideas, prioritize what should come next, and actually have fun in your studio.

No, we don’t just “do taxes;” we nurture the long-term relationships and planning that make taxes and financial preparedness a breeze.

Zoom, zoom, baby! All of our meetings are cloud-based, recorded, and instantly accessible.

We’ll set the agenda, you gather your bank logins, the last 1-3 years in tax returns, and your previous record-keeping system. We’ll take it from here.

Anticipate investing to save your skin in tax overpayments, unexpected surprises, and anemic profits. The tax savings and peace of mind you get will far outweigh your investment. #winning

If you like gaining knowledge over time, established systems and processes, and total transparency, you’re going to love the way we do business.

And the best part? We’re fun and friendly. You don’t see that every day.
