Collective has been an essential part of my company growth. When I first got started with my business there were so many questions around taxes, payroll, retirement planning, cashflow etc. Working with Collective has simplified all of the things that I should not be doing, which allows me to focus on my business and generating more revenue. I cannot recommend Collective enough.

I've been with Collective for about a year. Which hasn't yet included doing my taxes, so far my experience has been only accounting so I am only reviewing that part of the membership. My onboarding was great. I felt trusting, was patient, and ended up working with people who were truly knowledgeable and also very pleasant to interact with. I was rewarded with an accounting system set up better than anything I have had until now (I've had my own business for 14 years so that's saying something). This whole year I've been feeling like my books are in order and I have my stuff together in new ways. I am glad I joined Collective and hope to never have to scramble to get ready for tax season again.

Collective just gets it. They take the solopreneur (aka the 1099 employee or business owner) and takes all the headache out of bookeeping and accounting. They are responsive, very affordable, and all online. I have wasted money on accountants who did not know how to form an LLC, and the process with Collective was so smooth. I attended 1 webinar and it made so much sense. I will be saving lots in tax money and this service is 10x the amount I pay each month

They are a tax and accounting compliance company for solopreneurs across 50 states; They helped me transition as a military veteran into my own consulting company. If you're a veteran, military spouse, or even active duty/reserve with another hustle, check them out. Tell them Vinnie sent you if you end up engaging them to get a veteran discount.

Entering into our relationship with Collective paid off immediately. Right off the bat, they saved me something like $10,000 in taxes by helping me balance my distributions versus payroll. Next, they uncovered that we had not set up our legal structure correctly, and helped me fix it. I love it that Quickbooks Online and Gusto for payroll is integrated into their service. They helped us get that set up. I have peace of mind by having a partner. And when I mentioned we grew by 300% last year, they cheered. I've asked many financial questions about how to categorize an expense, and have received prompt and clearly articulated responses. I would call my experience with them "White Glove." I have no idea why others have been critical of their performance. It hasn't been my experience. At all. This was one of the top three business decisions I made all last year.

My questions are answered promptly and succinctly, my books are completed in a timely manner, and I can't beat the level of service I receive for the price I pay. Victoria, my account manager is one of the best customer service individuals I have ever had the pleasure of working with - and I have worked with many. Though there have been some growing pains, any mistakes are quickly remedied and I notice a significant improvement on all fronts - especially on the tax prep front!

This platform is definitely a relevant solution for business owners and contractors. A nice one stop shop for bookkeeping and tax optimization. Employees are really friendly and I really enjoyed the onboarding video calls. So far so good after a few months. They even helped catch up after starting late in the fiscal year! Some qualified people with a seamless platform.

Collective has been an absolute godsend. Working as a self-employed designer, I can offload most of my tax responsibilities and focus on my daily workload. Through the s-corp setup, I also save tens of thousands of dollars in taxes every year. Their service pays for itself!
