Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
Recently we enjoyed making cents4you with a new family...both self employed, where we reconciled the data to create bookkeeping reports which assisted in their tax preparation by another provider. It was a four day project for two years of data.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Seek out choices - not all firms offer the same customer service, professionalism, and prices. The old saying...You get what you pay for does not always ring true, don't overpay!
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
What are the company's values, mission, and agreement terms? Do they match your own life values? Are they working in your best interest or their bottom line?
Remember we are not boring people, we love our jobs, we are committed, we are detailed, we over analyze; but sometimes, we just have fun!
