Success Stories

Telecommunications sales/services company

"We are a successful, fast growing, privately-held business.  We worked with a CPA firm, but they needed to take a copy our Quickbooks database to their office to adjust and reconcile accounts.  We frequently could not use our Quickbooks for weeks.  We now have a great virtual accountant with VirtualAccountants.com and have 24/7 access to our accounting file.  All this and it is costing us less money!"

Nonprofit housing organization

"VirtualAccountants.com assigned a great accountant for our needs.  We are a housing organization with multiple entities and some complex accounting transactions.  VirtualAccountants improved our procedures, our accounting records are all up-to-date and they helped reduce our overhead costs.  Our bookkeeper pays the bills, enters deposits and handles all the day-to-day transactions.  Our virtual accountant brings it all together so that our financial reporting is timely and accurate.  Our independent auditor says our Quickbooks file is in great shape and easy to audit.  This is so much better than what we were doing before!"

Executive Director

Local restaurant

"I started a restaurant company a couple of years ago.  What a struggle – cash was tight and it was harder than I ever imagined.  Things have really come together and the restaurant is very profitable.  Through all the struggles, I just could not keep my accounting up – my Quickbooks file was a two year mess!  My virtual accountant put it all together, reconciled accounts and really put things on the right track.  I now pay a small monthly fee and she makes sure my accounting is up to date.  And by the way – great payroll services as well."

Salon\Spa

"The technology seems very impressive and I know our virtual accountant works well with it.  The bottom line for us is that we get to work with the same virtual accountant that knows us and our business.  We worked with an accounting firm and independent bookkeepers before, but got so tired of new people being assigned to our account or people changing jobs or moving.  We think our personal virtual accountant will be working with us for a long time."

Salon Manager

Membership organization

"We are a local professional membership/trade organization.  We can’t afford a full time accountant, but need help to ensure that at the end of the month, all adjustments are made and accounts are reconciled.  Our office manager pays the bills and enters deposits.  Our virtual accountant makes sure that our month end financial statements are correct and reports will be accurate for our board of directors meetings.  Several years ago, we got into a bit of a financial mess because we had an outside accountant that charged us a lot of money and really did not have the books right.  VirtualAccountants.com has been a great solution for us."

Executive Director

Commercial banker

"We prospected a small, but growing company near our branch.  The owner needed some operating capital but we just could not seem to get the data that we needed in order to put a loan package together for him.  We suggested that he try VirtualAccountants.com.  Within three weeks, he was able to give a nice, complete loan package.  We had suggested several accounting firms, but his needs were related to detailed bookkeeping issues and not more complex tax issues - so they were not the right fit.  VirtualAccountants.com was a great solution!"

Business Banking Manager

Dental practice

"Our practice has a very nice patient scheduling system and we use Quickbooks for the general accounting.  We employed a part time bookkeeper to post transactions in Quickbooks and make adjustments; however, he decided to move out of the area and the commute was too long.  VirtualAccountants.com developed a great solution for my practice that has better controls and more timely services.  I like the fact that I can access and review financial information from home in order to keep up with where things are."

Practicing Dentist

CPA practitioner

"A couple of years ago, I decided to limit my practice to tax preparation, tax planning and business consulting, but I just could not get away from the accounting/bookkeeping needs of my clients.  Doing tax returns for “shoebox” clients or those that attempted to do their own QuickBooks was a nightmare.  I spent so much time fixing the books that it just was not profitable.  I referred the virtual accountant that I work with in on several accounts, and she has really made a difference.  Several of the accounts are now setup so that I can access the accounting data for tax planning and to help my client.  If you’re a CPA that wants to make more per hour than you can on bookkeeping – this is the way to go."

CPA

Virtual Accountant

"I have worked full time as an accountant for a private company and also worked for a CPA doing bookkeeping for small business clients.  The VirtualAccountant.com structure is the best working arrangement that I have ever had.  I manage my own schedule so that I can best serve my clients.  The technology allows me instant, secure access to client data.  Clients call me with issues and I can immediately work on a resolution.  I also enjoy the fact that my travel time to clients is substantially reduced.  I am absolutely convinced that VirtualAccountants.com is the best value proposition for small business accounting and bookkeeping services."
