Our Story
ThinkForward Business Solutions was created originally to help start-ups and young businesses get going on the right foot with entity compliance, business consulting, basic bookkeeping and digital marketing, but we didn’t aim to just do these things for our clients, we wanted to educate them on the importance of things like good accounting practices, or how to onboard an employee, so they could grow and thrive as their business continued to develop.
It was then that we realized we have so much to offer our current and future clients, that we needed to structure it in a way to make it more easily accessible to all, so everyone could benefit from the solutions we provide to help their businesses succeed and not “just small businesses” or “just accounting clients”.
As of 2023, we’ve grown into a 5 person team so we can continue to offer an extraordinary level of service to all of our clients and we look forward to providing your business with the solutions to grow and be successful.
“I want to thank ThinkForward for making my corporate accounting practices easy for our group to understand.
For the past four (4) years we have used all of their services for our corporation. I can honestly say that my expectations have been met and then some.
A dedicated professional accounting group, The ThinkForward folks, help to convey everything with a positive attitude and professional demeanor.
For anyone that is searching for an accounting firm to help you understand record keeping , business tax planning or simply giving info on daily journal maintenance, these are the folks to check out.“
“Crystal and Jen have given me peace of mind helping keep my small business accounting organized……I would be totally lost without them. They are extremely responsive, are patient with my ignorance about accounting and always there to guide me when I have questions. Highly recommend them!“
“If you want your business books done right the first time, need your books corrected, business taxes, or need QuickBooks training, CALL CRYSTAL. Let her take the stress away so you can focus on your business.”
