Being an Accountant is About Helping the Community Prosper
by Helping the People in it Prosper
Many accountants shun startup businesses, for example. Starting a business is a risky and difficult task, and even with proper financial guidance many startup businesses fail; without guidance most small businesses don't last more than two years. For this reason many accounting services would rather work with larger more established companies than take the risk of providing the type of startup help that can help their communities grow.
Ronald has provided first rate accounting and bookkeeping services to startup and small businesses for many years, and will continue to do so for many years to come. Providing startup help is as much a duty to the community as a personal pleasure. Ronald takes enormous personal satisfaction from the startup help he provides and the pride of watching a venture grow from small family businesses to profitable companies that provide jobs and goods to the entire Keene area. Startup help means providing real guidance to new business owners, and often spells the difference between success and failure.
There are not many better ways to contribute to the community in which one lives than to help ones neighbors become more prosperous. Keene, and in fact many surrounding areas in New Hampshire and Vermont, have felt a positive impact from Ronald's practice.
Every Business Needs a Financial Expert
Integrity
As with most financial services, you need an accountant you can trust. Ron has spent many years in and around Keene earning the trust of the individuals and businesses he serves. He is dedicated to the Christian principles of integrity and hard work. His priority is his clients’ welfare, and this shows from your first meeting. Whether you need help managing family businesses, choosing a pension plan, or solving a problem with the IRS, Ron’s going to tell you what you need to know to do what’s right for you.
Skills
Ron is also dedicated to his continuing education. Unlike a bookkeeper or many uncertified accountants, CPAs are required to take 40 hours a year of additional coursework and seminars to stay current on the changing tax and economic climate. Ron has also found that many accountants and bookkeeping services, even CPAs, are woefully unskilled with the technology that’s increasingly shaping their industry. Software like QuickBooks, while easy to use and very flexible, is sometimes difficult to set up right for a specific business. Also, many business owners that rely on QuickBooks don’t use it to it’s fullest potential. That’s why Ron has participated in and passed the Certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor program. As a Certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor Ron has all the skills he needs to set your business up with the most profitable and efficient software configuration for your specific business.
