Her years of practical experience with small businesses and non-profits, both here and in England have led Louise to realize that every organization, no matter how small, needs to have good accounting practices and records so that they can track their profitability, manage their business and minimize their taxes. Her substantial expertise and knowledge of QuickBooks financial software helps her clients reach their financial goals with the confidence of knowing that their finances are under control and that they can achieve maximum profitability.
