QUEST ACCOUNTING AND BUSINESS SERVICES is the name of the enterprise providing the accounting and business services custom designed for Big Snow Country. An invitation has gone out in 2009 for business start-ups to get very low cost assistance and services from the maker of Big Snow Country. This post will give some details about just what we are talking about.

QUEST ACCOUNTING SERVICES PROGRAMS AND RATES FOR BUSINESS STARTUPS
The business must be less than 3 years old. The location must be in any of the following counties of Michigan: Gogebic, Ontonagon, Houghton, Keweenaw, Baraga, Marquette, Alger, Luce

NORMAL RATES FOR ANYONE AND EVERYONE:
Normal rates are still a major bargain: generally 2.2 times the following Big Snow Country Start-up rates. For example, a $10 per hour rate for start-ups is a $22 per hour rate for other businesses. You do NOT have to be a start-up business, or a business at all, to take advantage of our regular low rates and high quality. Nor do you have to be a resident of Big Snow Country. Internet capabilities allow anyone to use Quest Accounting and Business Services.

All you need is a computer, an internet conneection, and preferably a phone, and you are welcome to email questaccountingservices @ gmail dot com with your services request. (Replace "dot" with an actual dot.)

WHY RATES ARE SO LOW
It certainly is NOT because you won't get top quality and experience. There are a bunch of reasons and I will mention a few. First, the owner of Quest is semi-retired and does not need a "big income." Second, the economy is pretty bad everywhere, even in Big Snow Country (which by Midwest standards had a much better economy than the average until the current downturn hit). So the second reason I'll mention for why rates are so low is that we are trying to help in a down economy.

CLIENT LIMITATION
There will be a limit on how many clients we can have. When the client limit has been reached, this will be noted in bold at the top of this Internet page. In fact, a "Client Limitation Monitor" has been installed near the top of the page, which describes how close we might be to reaching the limit.

Hypothetically, when the client limit is reached, we might be able to add staff and increase the number of clients. However, this would require finding people who were qualified and willing to work at low rates, which even in this economy might be difficult to do.

FIRST 1 1/2 HOURS ARE FREE FOR ALL SERVICES
ALL WORK IS SATISFACTION GUARANTEED
--For those who get service by the hour and are dissatisfied and discontinuing services, the last one and a half hours are free
--For those who get service on an annual basis and are dissatisfied and discontinuing services, a refund of much of the paid annual fee will be made. The refund would be the pro-rated amoount of the annual fee "used" plus $10. for example, if someone were to discontinue in the middle of the year from a $100 plan, the refund would be $50 plus $10 = $60.
