Testimonials

Excellent value, and pro-active on cost-savings measures. We have been in business for 25 years, and E&S has found several areas where we can improve our accounts for better transparency and cost-savings. Her quarterly analysis is always insightful and her problem-solving skills are always appreciated. We outsourced a portion of our bookkeeping this year to E&S and it really lightened the load on our administrative staff. We had a key member out of the office for several weeks for health reasons and our payables stayed on track thanks to their efforts.

I always thought I couldn’t afford to hire someone to help with my bookkeeping and accounting, so I did it myself for years. But it was one of those tasks that I always hated doing. And as the business started to grow, I began to hate doing it even more—it was always something that hung over my head and was done at the last possible minute. I can’t recall how I even met Susan and Beth, but I’m very glad that I did. They took over my monthly reconciliation and accounting review and it has helped my business immensely. Not only does it free up my time to do more of what I want to do, but I also get trusted advice and guidance along the way. Susan is great to work with; she is very organized and efficient. She took great notes in the beginning so she really knows and understands my business, my vendors, how the books should be set up, and where everything needs to be classified. The bookkeeping is handled from start to finish without any involvement from me. It is just done—like magic! No arduous task hanging over my head anymore. It’s one of those things I will never go back to doing myself again because I just can’t afford not to have their help.

I can’t express enough how important Beth and Kathy have been throughout the last ten years working together. I’ve learned through business to hire people who are better at the jobs you need done than you are. I didn’t go to business school, but my confidence is much higher knowing that I have them in my corner, guiding me through this journey. As much as I have learned from them in the last ten years, I know I still need their expertise to have the success that I want. I couldn’t be more thankful to them.

Susan and Beth with E&S were very helpful in getting my Quickbooks set up properly and training me on the specific areas that I needed help with. I had already set up QB and was using it for a couple months… E&S was able to walk me thought real transactions and point out areas that I needed to adjust so that all of my reporting was correct. I received a customized document summarizing all the features that we discussed for on-going reference. I felt like they were a great value and saved me time and money in the long run. I have scheduled them to come back and walk through submission of taxes at the end of the quarter. It’s great to have someone you can call on for just what you need and not feel like they are going to charge you and exorbitant fee!

Susan and Beth from E&S Advisors supported my dream of opening up my own mental health clinic. When it came time to do the SWAT analysis they both stepped up and assisted in finishing this part of my business plan. As a result I was able to get a VA loan to open up the business.

They both were there every step of the way, offering encouragement and factual information to support making this goal achievable. Both are easy to work with, flexible and professional.

Susan has played an integral role in helping me set up my accounting system. She is easily accessible and always ready to help. Susan also played a huge role during the pandemic, helping me navigate the rules with the COVID 19 small business loans and grants. I am grateful for Susan’s expertise and would highly recommend her to other small business owners.

Kinley Kay

The knowledge, experience and results that E&S Entrepreneur Advisors have brought to Medalcraft Mint have been integral to the success, and continued success, of our company. Beth has an exceptionally strong understanding of manufacturing and cost control. Her skills as our outsourced CFO are an important part of our management team.

Jerry Moran, Owner

Beth is professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. When I first called E & S I was in quite a bind with almost a year of inaccurately using QuickBooks online. She helped to fix my mistakes, train me on how to correctly make entries and set up catagories for my business expenses and income that would make it easy to generate detailed reports. I never would have survived my first and consecutive years in business without her expertise. I highly recommend her for any business, especially a new startup so that they can avoid the mistakes I made.

Karen Grams

After 6 years working with Susan, she has become an invaluable member of my business support system. She allows me to focus on what I do best while giving me the peace of mind that my finances are being kept in proper order and everything is being tracked/ paid properly. Especially during the start of COVID she made sure that I was always up to date with the constant rule changes and programs, helped secure the aid we needed, and made sure that our spending was tracked properly to ensure the forgiveness of the aid we received.

Zac Van Gompel, Owner

I have been working with Susan and Beth of E&S Entrepreneur Advisors for the last few years and I am very impressed with their company. They have helped me to better understand my business. I am even learning to do some of the entering in QuickBooks myself. They are always very professional, ready to help me when I call. I would highly recommend Beth and Susan from E&S Entrepreneur Advisors.

Connie Koehnke, Owner

After thirty some years of working for other people, I “retired” to start my own freelance Photo Styling business. I needed help with bookkeeping, billing, and everything else related to correctly managing the paperwork side of doing business. Beth was the first person I thought of to get me started. Having been friends since before Beth started her own business, I knew that she was knowledgeable, meticulous, and dependable. I had no background in accounting, Beth guided me using QuickBooks and I now feel confident in my ability to keep my own books and billing in order. If I ever have any questions navigating anything, Beth is always there for me. Thank you, Beth, for your continued guidance and support for me and my business.
