WHY LOCAL ECONOMY?

Have you noticed that many websites you visit don’t provide any customer service phone numbers these days? Instead, they want you to correspond by “submitting” a message. That won’t happen here. You’ll always find our phone number. Do you want to scream when you call a company with a simple question, but have to “press or say” through a maddening maze of questions? That won’t happen here, either. Do you dislike dealing with letters from the IRS? We’ll eliminate that for you. Have you ever needed a payroll report ASAP but had to submit a request and wait 72 hours? We won’t make you do that. In other words, we won’t take you for granted. You’ll enjoy working with real people who care about you, your business, and the issues that affect it. You could call it revolutionary….but it’s really just a matter of respecting your time and appreciating your patronage of our services.
