The words “joyful” and “managing finances” don’t often go hand-in-hand, but what if they could?

I know, it seems unlikely from where you’re standing right now, but bear with me.

I know how frustrating it is when you’ve been working hard but still aren’t seeing the results you need to drive your business forward.

I see you over there with your piles of receipts and spreadsheets, none of which offer any information on how to manage your business' finances.

When my clients come to me, they've often been staring at Quickbooks for quite some time hoping they'll some how find the time to learn how to actually use it.

There’s zero shame in not understanding how to set up and manage your Quickbooks accounting system. We can’t be good at everything and let’s face it, there are only so many hours in a day.

"Kerry came to our office and killed the demon with one blow. There were times when the computer was nearly thrown out the window. Kerry sat me down and guided me through all the good stuff on QuickBooks. All with good humour, understanding and empathy. I can now use QuickBooks to my satisfaction. Call Kerry if you need the Demon QuickBooks slain. She is kind, wonderful attitude, a lot of fun. So glad I called her."
