An absolute must!! ABSOLUTELY love everything collective has done (and continues to do!) for my business. My only regret is not working with them sooner–I can't tell you how much stress they've relieved!

Collective Handles the Hard Stuff Collective handles all the difficult bookkeeping and payroll aspects of running your own business and they do it while saving you tons on your taxes. You're paired with real people who genuinely care about your success and that, in and of itself, makes the cost worth it over and over again.

Run away as fast as you can Run away fast. 1) Their work is frequently wrong. I've had issues every tax return. If I didnt catch them I would have lost money. The first time they told me to pay $50K in additional taxes when taxes were due. Turns out I was entitled to $30K refund. The second time I caught a mistake, I would have had to pay $20K in extra taxes if I didn't correct 2) Their advice is bad. i end up with a way larger tax return every year than I should, while at the same time incurring penalties. 3) Their communication is bad - very confusing, hard to follow, and hard to get a hold of when you really need them

Love this service! I've used Collective for over 2 years now to set-up and assist with my S-Corp, and it has been a life saver. I had no idea what I was doing before using them, and random tax and regulatory things will pop up that I would not have known/paid/understood if Collective had not flagged them for me and been there to answer my questions. Before using Collective (they weren't available in my state at the time) I also tried to find another service that does the same thing, but after weeks of looking I literally could not. Some companies do parts of what Collective does, and some do others, but none of them did it all. I recommend Collective 100% and I'll continue using them for sure! :)

The most patient, helpful team! As a graphic designer, I am the first to admit that I would rather focus my time on creative projects than bookkeeping and taxes. Outsourcing those tasks to Collective the last couple years has been one of my best business decisions. It gave me time back to focus on the parts of my business I LOVE, while knowing that all of my business financial ducks are in a row with Collective managing it all. Their team of experts is so incredibly patient with all of my questions and helped me form my LLC/S Corp seamlessly. I have had the best experience with their services and highly recommend them to any small business soloprenuer. 100% worth the investment.
