Brittney has been great in helping me get onboarded. This is all new to me, so I was looking for a complete hand-holding scenario, and Collective has done that so far. I look forward to working with them the rest of the year to see how much money I can save on my taxes.

I’ve been a Collective member for about 5 years now and I’d genuinely be lost without them. Their dashboard is extremely helpful at helping me see my finances for the year, reminding me of important deadlines, and makes it super easy to get quick questions answered or calls scheduled with my relationship manager.

Detailed onboarding and easy access to my advisor for 1:1 support is great! As a sole proprietor having Collective made the transition to a S-Corp a seamless process.

I’ve had a great experience with Collective in setting up and managing my LLC and S-Corp. The process has been straightforward, and having tax, bookkeeping, and compliance support all in one place has given me peace of mind and ability to focus on my work.
A special shout-out to John Heintz for his in-depth knowledge of taxes and business matters. He and his team have been incredibly helpful, responsive, and great at explaining complex tax topics in a clear and practical way.
I highly recommend Collective to business owners looking for knowledgeable support and a streamlined way to manage their business.

Just made the switch to Collective and already within 2 days ive got more questions answered about my taxes than any other CPA has helped me before. I'm very happy! Nelson has been wonderful!

Collective has made the confusing & sometimes scary parts of running your own business easy. Before Collective, I had questions around taxes, payroll, and accounting. After Collective, I have a dedicated person there to give me answers and help me with what's next. It feels like I have a partner. I could not recommend it more.

Been working with them in 2 ways for 6 months now: as a creator marketing the platform and as a customer.
As a creator, I'm super grateful to Kevin Sheehan and the marketing team for always keeping me up to date with briefs and content for our partnerships. It's truly been one of the smoothest collaborations I've done. Glad to see that my efforts have been fruitful to the business.
As a customer, really appreciated the onboarding team's help in understanding S-Corps and how to keep everything going smoothly. This was my first time converting my LLC to S-Corp status and it came with a lot of learning, so glad the UI made it simple and easy to access the different new responsibilities I had to take on.
The support team has been quite helpful and quick to respond whenever I've had niche requests, and when the ask is outside of their domain, they do a great job in communicating with the correct team members on my behalf.
Monthly reimbursements reminder/calculator has saved me quite a few times too.
Overall quite satisfied with my experience here, and looking forward to see how the product develops to further meet my needs as a businessowner.

Amazing service, confident about being able to save on the amount of taxes that I will pay and looking forward to continue working with them.

Although there have been some speed bumps along the way getting accounts and processes established, the team at Collective has always been quick to respond and has gone the extra mile to make sure everything is on track. Having them in my corner has been a relief and a burden off my back. I can't even imagine going at this alone.

Collective has been such a great asset to me as a solo business owner. Having their help and guidance in setting up my S-Corp and maintaining accurate bookkeeping has taken such a weight off my shoulders!

Reply from Collective
My experience with Collective was great. They did more than I expected, and ultimately my business financials were not quite a fit for their services but for standard bookkeeping and tax preparation services I would so highly recommend. Even though I ultimately decided to go with another more comprehensive in-person tax service, John (a CPA for over 30 years) spent almost an hour on the phone with me helping to determine my next steps and what I need and the questions I should ask a local CPA. His advice was so helpful and so appreciated.

Collective came prepared with what info I needed to finalize, fixed a website bug on the spot, and answered all the open questions I had on set up/process.
