OUR SIGNATURE SERVICE
THE CASH FLOW CRUNCH
50% of new businesses fail by the 5th year. What did they all have in common? Lack of cash flow. The key to succeeding in business is simple. Consistent positive cash flow. It is a simple concept, yet difficult to maintain without oversight.
Most business owners aren't skilled at understanding cash flow. And you shouldn't be - that's MY job. Just like most finance people despise marketing. You can't judge a frog by it's ability to climb a tree. If you are worried about cash flow, you need help. You can either hope, pray and wish it works itself out, or you can hire me, to give your business a fighting chance.
In our 13 week cash flow crunch program, we prepare weekly cash flow analyses to tell you exactly what to do, to get you back in the black.

"Summer's leadership, agility and project management skills were a great inspiration to me during her time as my senior on an audit engagement. She always has creative and exciting ideas to improve project management and cheered up the team with her humor and positive attitude. Summer was always there when I needed guidance on audit procedures when I just wanted to share the ups and downs of the workday. Despite the complexity of the areas we worked on, Summer tackled the challenges well and the team could always count on her."

"Summer is a hard-charging, focused professional. She has worked her way up the ladder on her own merit. At the time as a single mother of two children, working and attending college...in the end completing her bachelor's and working tenaciously towards her professional goals. Her past military experience has given her the confidence to always get to "Yes" even when the task seems impossible, and simultaneously the charisma to inspire those around her to get involved and make a difference in a positive way."

"I found Dope CPA (Summer Thorn) through a friend in the industry. After struggling to find a CPA that actually knew what they were talking about, and not getting charged crazy prices for no results, we are lucky to find Dope CPA!! Summer and her partners are very helpful, clear with direction and great in communication. Accounting is a difficult aspect of our complex industry, and Dope CPA has taken that burden off our shoulders with ease. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the industry."
