Linda M. - Nonprofit Association
Our Real Estate Brokerage had all the components to be successful, but we needed help organizing, structuring, and planning as we launched into our first year in business as a Boutique Agency. Thanks to Cascadia we got the help we needed. With their guidance, we have implemented systems that continue to drive our actions and goals toward our defined success. We are thankful for Libby, and we look forward to their continued support.
Cassie - Real Estate
Cascadia provided excellent training and overview of QuickBooks for me on my Mac. After having to learn several different software applications over many years, I had hoped that was in the past. So when I found I needed to learn QuickBooks for a project, I was not too excited about the learning curve. Fortunately, Rennae made it easy and geared her training to my needs, pace, and skills. She did a terrific job!"
