What our clients say

“Lou Cirignano has been a huge relief/ value for me as a business owner. Lou became my virtual accountant over a year ago now, and my accounting has shifted from a burden to a breeze. Lou corrected Quickbook configurations for me, helped me navigate through challenging reconciliations and educated me on Quickbooks along the way. Lou is readily available, fast, efficient, and accurate. She is also flexible. She enables me to stay hands-on with the accounting pieces that are most important to me and to delegate the balance that can become time-consuming. Looking back, I can remember the hesitancy I had handing the books over to someone else. In a nutshell, trust is key. I trust Lou and am grateful for her critical support of my business.”
— Michele Parrish, Managing Partner, Executive Coach & Consultant Parrish Partners, LLC

What are the main benefits to having an accounting advisor?

The benefits of having a reliable, talented accounting advisor are innumerable! Here are a few things that will change your finances:

  • Experience peace of mind from having your finances in order
  • Having an expert that can help you with any challenges that might arise with taxes or your business
  • Don’t make avoidable mistakes with an advisor that has seen many of the challenges you will face.

You’ll know exactly how much money you really have and where to allocate that money: expenses, profit, investments, etc.

Is accounting advice really important for growing businesses?

Yes! Every penny counts for young, growing businesses. Avoiding missteps that can set you back a whole year is completely worth the investment. Plus, you’ll be able to avoid messy books and wasting money.

What are some ways your financial services help take a business to the next level?

Thanks for asking! We work hard to make sure our processes and steps are always geared to making your business money. Here’s a few ways we do that: 

  • When a company is growing it’s easy to misspend money. We help you understand your balance sheet, income, profit, loss, and much more to ensure that you spend your capital wisely.
  • When we take care of your accounting you can stay focused on visions, goals, and what you care about instead of getting bogged down in financial details.
  • We’ll give you timely, useful advice to help you make solid business decisions.

How can I avoid red flags or mishaps with my business tax returns or audit?

Taxes can be extremely complicated – and making sure you are preparing for them is no walk in the park. Whether or not you choose WCH CPA’s we recommend you find a professional to help you with your taxes. In the meantime, here are some things to remember:

  • Always keep accurate, organized records
    Ensure you are filing all the information necessary: W2, W3, 1099’s etc.
  • Remember that you will have to pay taxes – and don’t be surprised by them! Make sure you know how much money you really have and don’t spend too much on capital expenditures. Instead, save some for tax expenditures.
  • Don’t try to make taxes “go away” by spending more money to save on your taxes. If you don’t grow from the financial investments you make, you haven’t handled your money well.
  • Get comfortable with the amount of money you need to set aside for taxes each quarter and make it happen!

When do I need to start paying estimated taxes for a company?

You should start paying estimated taxes on April 15, or the year after your first year of profitable growth.

How can my business be prepared for the tax season, especially if there was significant growth?

The best thing you can do is to have a tax strategy in hand and implemented before emergency strikes. If you have a CPA make sure they stay completely informed throughout the year. Beyond that, keep accurate records – either yourself, or with the help of a bookkeeper. And don’t forget to start preparing for tax season ahead of time so you can save up an adequate amount of money!

How long should I keep my business records?

Important records like operating agreements and deeds should be kept indefinitely. Regular financials should be kept for 7-8 years which is the normal error period for the IRS.
