Our Client’s Experience with us

Sal has been a wonderful mentor throughout the Bookkeeping Academy course, and I’m so grateful for the relationship we built. With her personalized approach, she supported me through so many “firsts” as a newly incorporated bookkeeping business owner. She provided tools, insights, solutions, and clear guidance at every step—and was always available to answer my questions with timely, valuable feedback.

If you’re starting a new business and looking for a mentor who is supportive and friendly—but not afraid to be assertive when it’s needed for your growth—Sal is the one. I couldn’t recommend her more!
