Lorraine was referred to me by another customer of hers who has been very satisfied for over 10 years and I could not be more satisfied! She relieves me of a lot of the stress, aggravation and frustration that comes with payroll and all of the weekly software and government updates that are part of the process. Because of her, I am finally able to get back to customer service and am able to focus on my day to day operations. Lorraine’s skills and her knowledge of QuickBooks are invaluable.
