FAQs

  • We never know our tax liability until our return is completed.
    Well, that is a pretty good reason to change to JOLT, isn't it? That won't happen at JOLT. Our proprietary advisory package includes an integrated tax projection that is updated each month as your year unfolds. No more surprises. No more last minute bank transfers. More importantly, we work with you all year long to strategically manage your cash reserves and reduce your tax position. No need to worry about this when you are part of the JOLT family.
  • How is JOLT advisory different than other advisory services?
    Let's be honest. Most small businesses haven't really had the opportunity for a real business advisor. Advisory services are usually billed as an additional, optional service - and billed at a premium. We believe that by taking care of your compliance needs (bookkeeping and tax preparation), we can offer the additional advisory services at a very affordable level. Since we are already intimately familiar with all your business transactions and your tax situation, our advisory service is a natural extension of our work. No catching up necessary. In addition, we know that general business advisory services are critical for your success and shouldn't be an expensive add-on. Our advisory services are built into our pricing and end up being about half the cost of any other advisory add-on service offered.
  • Scaling my business is a lot harder than I thought.
    Yep, it's hard. We know because we are a small business just like you and we ONLY work with small businesses - like you. We work with you when times are rough and celebrate with you when you get those hard fought wins. We genuinely want you to thrive. More importantly, our "advisory first" method keeps your strategy front and center and allows you the time to stay focused so you can keep moving forward. We take care of the nuts and bolts. You know that we have your backside covered and you are able to confidently take the right risks.
  • I desperately need help, but there is no way I can afford it right now.
    My first response is to remind you that all of your expenses are an area of concern, not just your accounting/advisory expenses. Now let's do some math. If your sales are $350,000 and you have a net income is 10%, you are doing a log of work for $35,000 of income. If you didn't believe in yourself, you would have quit already and gone back to your 9-5 secure W2 job. But you didn't. You are here because you know there is a lot of upside. At JOLT our AVERAGE client increased their sales by 30% and increased their profit margin by 4%. That means, we were able to help your $350,000 business increase sales to $422,500 and your net income increased from $35,000 to $59,000. We did not even discuss the tax savings we generate for our clients nor the operational efficiencies we generate that allow you to focus on what you do best. So I think the real question is what are you waiting for? Truthfully, if you really want the help and are committed to your success, we will work with you until you seek the success you know you can achieve.
  • I don't know what I don't know
    Most business owners started their own business because they were good at one thing - not good at everything. You need a trusted advisor to help you cover the areas that you are not familiar with. We strive to be that trusted advisor to all of our clients. It is hard to "sell trust" so we won't try to do that. We know that it has to be earned. We encourage you to read some of our client testimonials and/or feel free to ask for a referral from us. We work very hard to be your trusted advisor. We mean it. We live it. We breathe it. Join the JOLT family see it first hand.
