“Meeting Jackie Shaw was a pivot point from being a lucrative business owner to being an organized and confident professional. When I first purchased QB for Mac, I had a hard time familiarizing myself with the program, so I cut corners as to produce invoices and such but nothing added up and at the end of the year and trying to come up with itemized expenses and P&L’s for taxes was a nightmare. After meeting with Jackie, I provided the necessary information and she cleaned up my previous mess, and showed me how to correctly run all my business finances through QB...If you have doubts that you are not getting the full benefits of QB or are a new business owner trying to learn the program, I would highly recommend Jackie Shaw as a professional consultant.”

“Thank you for your generosity and willingness to share your QuickBooks expertise with me. Your assistance has been invaluable.

I appreciate the QuickBooks database diagnosis that you performed for my business. Your recommendations for improvement, along with your proposal for services, gave me a better picture of what my business needs to move forward. After meeting with you, I felt much more knowledgeable about QuickBooks and the role it could play in the success of my business.

Since my desire was ultimately to find a local QuickBooks professional advisor, your input armed me with the right questions and a clear idea of our needs as I interviewed possible candidates…without hesitation, I would highly recommend your services to others.”

“When we started working with Jackie, my books seemed to be OK, but, in retrospect, were pretty much a mess. We didn’t have the kind of timely and accurate information needed to effectively run our company, and we didn’t have the expertise or time to figure out how to get there. Working with Jackie has bridged that gap for us. She is super focused and quickly identifies issues that would have taken us hours or days of forensic accounting to figure out. She has helped us develop effective standard practices and reporting systems that now provide the kind of data we lacked.

A company owner that decides to work with Jackie needs to be committed to making change, and will need to set aside significant time to follow through. A good analogy is how our remodeling customers need to dedicate significant time to understanding the design and making decisions. Jackie will push you to get results. If you have specific financial goals, and you’ve had trouble figuring out how to get there, Jackie has the insight and backbone to bring about the required change. I have found remodeling accounting and business financial planning is remarkably complicated and working with Jackie has been the missing piece for us. To be successful, a business owner would be well advised to partner with an expert such as Jackie Shaw.”
