    Meet Veronica

    Hi, My name is Veronica Wasek, an entrepreneur, accountant, mentor, and educator. I am a Certified Public Accountant, Advanced QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, and the founder of Mavency, a successful virtual bookkeeping and consulting business serving e-commerce clients. I am also the founder of 5 Minute Bookkeeping. I've been named a Top 10 QuickBooks ProAdvisor (worldwide) and a Top Accounting Influencer.

    But before all that, I was struggling to succeed in my bookkeeping business, after a layoff...in the middle of a recession. Yes, it was stressful but I knew I had to find systems and better ways of working to optimize my time while creating huge value for my clients. Now, I'm sharing those systems with you, so you can cut out years of trial and error and make a giant leap forward in your business.

    My goal is to help virtual bookkeepers become confident business owners. As much as I love accounting and technology, I love teaching even more. I'm excited to share my knowledge and experience with you, so you can build a thriving business without the guesswork.
    Veronica Wasek
