Passion is Why We Do What We Do
It has been my experience that most, if not all, small businesses are formed out of enthusiasm. A person or group of people see an opportunity to offer something they enjoy, or something for which they have a talent, or both, to the community or further. It may be a vision to make the world a better place, a more enjoyable place or simply to make daily struggles a little easier. In most situations, it is not about “getting rich quick.” It is about offering their service, their product, even themselves, to others to help make your life and theirs a little (or a lot) better.
This brings me to why I do what I do. The strain of starting a business is great. It is usually a huge risk. The daily task of running a business is very demanding. On top of that, keeping up with the financial aspects and reporting requirements can be overwhelming. I know; I am there right now. And that is why I do what I do. I admire those who are willing to take that chance and I want to help them succeed. I am here to help alleviate some of the burden, to help out in the areas which most people find less enjoyable, more strenuous, or outright grueling. I don’t want to just be your accountant, tax preparer or consultant. I want to be your trusted advisor, your friend.
I also have a passion for working with non-profit organizations and churches. These are truly people who make great sacrifices to make the world a better place. I feel honored to be able to help further and strengthen the organizations that contribute so much to society and take only what they are willfully given.
