You Owe It To Yourself,
Family, Investors And Clients To Have Honest And Qualified
Accounting And Bookkeeping Services So You Have Tight Control Of Your
Finances And Your Company Thrives!
Do you have the nagging feeling that your company has
'outgrown' its present bookkeeping or accounting
methods? Are you really confident
that all your books are being kept right, or are you just
sort of hoping it will turn out OK in the end, almost like in the
movies? Would you like the confidence that big company CPA’s
provide, but can’t see yourself paying the big firm fees?
You don’t have to be nervous.
And you don’t have to compromise. Or overpay.
Hi! I'm the owner of CPA Seattle Washington.
You can enjoy the security that comes from having honest, professional
accounting and bookkeeping services
by a group of local CPA’s with experience helping both small
and large regional firms.
It's good to have someone on your side who knows all the ins
and outs of both multimillion dollar businesses as well as
smaller companies. Wait! Stop! Please don't leave; I know
that sounds very
expensive but it's not - We're not.
Actually you'll find our pricing to be in line with
non-CPA accounting and bookkeeping services. You'll also get large firm
experience together with the personalized
service of a smaller firm. The best of both worlds.
More importantly professional accounting and bookkeeping services that
pay sharp attention to detail with an eye toward profits, savings and
improvements can be a major piece in the puzzle to your company's
success, helping you cut costs and increase profits!
Many times our clients save more in efficiencies and
taxes than our entire fee, so the net result turns out
to be a very pleasant surprise!
When companies are on a growth track, and they get to a
certain size, they usually need more than an in-house
bookkeeper or family member can provide. They need a
qualified CPA that offers a full range of accounting and
bookkeeping services. Many companies cost themselves a lot of
money by holding back from hiring an outside professional
bookkeeping service when they truly need it. Why?
It may be because they hate change or are just 'used to'
doing it themselves. Maybe they rely on a family member or
one other person who ‘knows the books’ and they are 'sure
they can trust'. Maybe you even feel this way but you know
you can't take your business to the next level without
professional bookkeeping or accounting help.
I understand that it's scary to put your books in someone
else's hands; but if you're having trouble keeping up, if
you're behind in recording transactions, if you can't do
your taxes or you don't know where your business is headingit's time to make the investment in finding a
qualified, honest bookkeeper and accountant to get
or keep your business on track. At some point there is just
too much to lose and it's too costly to not get professional
help!
Give me a call and we can make time to meet. We're in Seattle but we cover all of North Seattle too. You can come to our office or to make it convenient
for you I'll gladly arrange a convenient time to come to
your office or home. After we meet you can decide if you feel
comfortable. I'm confident you will.
We try hard to make ourselves people you want to do
business with, people you'll like and trust. We even
help our business clients on a more personal level,
assisting them with personal financial planning and wealth
management. Many
of our clients have become our personal friends
and that’s the way we prefer it because it makes our work so
much more enjoyable!
Let me take a few minutes and explain some of the ways we
can help you by saving you money and making your
company more profitable.
Financial Reports Reveal Make
Or Break Opportunities For Your
Business Or Potential Killers!
Financial reports are vital to any business, they are like a
report card of how your company is doing. You or your
present bookkeeper may see it only as an end result…. We see
it as a sports team coach sees last weeks game score – it
shows where improvements need to be made, what worked and
what didn’t.
Only then can you steer your company in the directions
that are most profitable. There are probably parts of
your business that are very profitable and by giving these
parts more of your time and attention your company could
thrive and your life could be simpler, easier and your
business more profitable. You could work less and make
more profit!
Financial reports can also help you identify areas of
your business that make you very little profit or are even
losing you money right now. The sooner you
discover these the better. You may need to to make
major changes to these areas to make them profitable or even
eliminate them completely so you can concentrate on what is
REALLY working for you.
Unfortunately this need for major changes is more common
than most realize. It could even be the difference
between your company 'surviving' or not. You might
even be shocked to learn that the 80-20 rule applies to your
business' profitability; that 20% of your business is making
you 80% of your profits and the other 80% is at or near
break even or even losing you money!
It will be a huge
relief when you are able to see clearly the big picture and
know for sure what is making you money and what is costing
you! That puts you in control, in the driver's
seat so to speak, so you can than zero in on
the details to figure out what can be done and what areas
you need to focus on to improve your
situation.
Almost without exception family members and in-house
bookkeepers don’t have the training nor the thousands of
hours of accounting and bookkeeping experience under
their belts nor the variety of industry
experience to even begin to see the possibilities hidden between the
lines.
With us on your side you'll benefit from the collective
experience we've gained from working with many firms,
some smaller and some larger, and seeing what worked for
them in situations like yours.
Whether you use us or someone else please don't miss out
on these opportunities for increasing profits and cutting
losses that almost certainly will never be seen and/or
implemented unless you get professional help. This could
cost you tens of thousands or even millions of dollars,
especially over the years.
Avoid Tax Confusion And IRS
Problems
If a family member or bookkeeper handles the routine transactions all year
and then tries to pass the books on to a CPA who only does
the taxes, there’s a good chance someone can ‘drop the ball’, misunderstanding the transactions and costing you money.
Having the same person that do your bookkeeping and taxes
will make it so that at the end of the year there will already
be a very good understanding of what happened in
your business, and this can go a long way toward avoiding
costly errors. It’s
much smoother.
Beyond that,
having a trained eye constantly examining what is happening
in your business can turn out to be a huge savings on your
taxes. When financial planning is done right year-round,
the tax savings at times will even more than cover the
additional expense of qualified accounting and bookkeeping
services.
As your business grows and your accounting and bookkeeping
get more complicated, not only might you save yourself from
paying a lot in extra taxes you might also save yourself
from making errors on your tax returns. Errors that
could flag you for an audit and even
make it look to the IRS like you are trying to cheat them.
You could cause yourself major problems because you
really do, unknowingly, break their rules and I don't
think we want to have to talk about all that could mean.
Make Sure You Stay In Business
If you are newly in business for yourself, eventually, to get
your company where it needs to be you are likely to need
some type of help with budgeting, projections and financial
planning.
A
part of financial planning you need to consider once you go
into business for yourself is retirement planning. Now
that you have no employer you also have no 401k, retirement
plan or any type of pension.
Sooner
or later these all must be addressed or it won't be long
before you decide that having your own business 'isn't for
you' or you'll just 'see the need' to go get a job again.
As you've probably heard most (63% be some measures) small businesses fail
in the first 5 years. Most times you can chalk it
up to bad budgeting and financial planning (or none
at all)
or what we talked about above, not knowing what is profitable
and what isn't.
Handling
money can be a temptation to anyone, in a large or small
company. Large companies have formal policies in place to
avoid putting too much trust in one or two people in an
accounting department. And even then, they have CPAs double
check to test for honesty. Is your money less important?
It’s a sensitive issue, but it needs to be addressed and you
should feel comfortable discussing it with a professional.
Assurance For Third Parties
If your company needs financial statements for banks,
investors, limited partners, or leasing companies, it just
won’t fly to let a family member or bookkeeper handle it. Even if they have
good skills, they need a CPA license to do formal
compilations, reviews or compilations. So for this level of
reassurance, you need a licensed professional or you won’t
satisfy the third parties’ need for independent accounting.

accountant. Life is too short to deal with that sort of
aggravation! I assure you you’ll be treated with respect from our staff,
