Being a home based business, clients tend to have you at their 'beck and call' and don't always take you seriously. [Your website and newsletter are] invaluable, accurate with up to date relevant information.

Just received my copy of your last newsletter The Bookkeeper's Notes. I am not a bookkeeper but still really enjoy reading it. You keep it simple and easy to read even for us unbookkeepers...the topics are interesting and I learn a lot. Keep up the good work & Merry Christmas to you.

[...] Your newsletter is one of the ones I look for!

I am one of your greatest fans and eagerly read all your newsletters.

I have your site bookmarked and often refer to your site especially to "double-check" myself. I work in a nonprofit and for my church so I have to refresh my memory too when it comes to for-profit accounting.

You have a wonderful style of writing and as a small business owner I find your articles very useful.

Good Morning Lake

I am sitting here, having finished my first coffee, and looking at pouring the second cup. It is a beautiful day out here.

I was showing my printed copy of 5 tips to my friend Helene, and also gave her your web address, so she could go there herself.

I have read the booklet about three times myself and have really enjoyed it.

I look forward to receiving my newsletter and enjoy your site ... very informative.

Why am I not able to get into the password links when I type in the password for the Dec 2010 back issue? I copy and pasted it three times and then it shut me out.
