FEBRUARY NEWS: The Case for Kindness in Business, Especially Ours!
A Note From Our Founder :

Recently, I was on the phone with a new client who was about halfway through the onboarding process. As we were talking, I noticed that the client kept needlessly apologizing for things. She apologized for not having answers, for not having certain information she felt she should know, and for just about every time that she had to answer a question with, “I don’t know.”

I finally asked, “Why do you feel the need to apologize? You’re not a professional bookkeeper or financial manager. You know that and you’re ready to make some changes, which is why you’ve hired us to help. We are going to improve the situation and get your organization ready for the next level. Together.”
 
My client let out a big sigh and sounded tearful as she replied, “Thank you for saying that. Thank you for your kindness. I am apologizing so much because others in my past have not been as kind, and it’s been a huge frustration and slightly depressing. So thank you for being so kind.”

70% OF AMERICANS HAVE POOR FINANCIAL HEALTH: WHAT YOU CAN DO TO BEAT THE ODDS
Let’s face it, when it comes to personal money management there is often a disconnect between knowledge and action. You know the importance of having a safety fund. You understand the long-term impact of consistent retirement contributions. You know it’s vital to spend less than you make. So, why are 70% of people failing at financial health ( MarketWatch )? It might be that failure comes from not knowing where to get started. FULL ARTICLE HERE

"I have been working with Chantal for over two years on an audit for one of her clients. She is extremely responsive and helpful. Her work is always in good order and we make very few journal entries. She has a great understanding of nonprofit entities and what makes them unique. I would recommend her to any nonprofit seeking bookkeeping and/or consulting."
