Company History
Founded with $10,000 of start-up capital by Max Greenwood, CPA in 2006, The Sorcerer's Accountant has become a full-time endeavor for Greenwood. At first focused entirely on tax services, Greenwood added management and cost accounting services in 2007 and then QuickBooks reselling and services to small businesses and startups in 2008, after becoming a certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor. This has allowed Sorcerer's Accountant to provide a wide range of services to small businesses over its lifetime from launch through expansion and growth.
The Sorcerer's Accountant has grown significantly in past years to $175,000 in total annual revenue, but has had difficulty taking on additional work due to the limits on Greenwood's time. Client retention has been a positive factor, with 75% of 2008 clients repeating service in 2009.
The business operates out of a small rented office which has enough room for one additional employee. The office is not used for client meetings - they are held entirely at client offices.
