"My current position is as a business broker. I became a PRO user of AccountingCoach because I wanted to learn bookkeeping as a side job during the pandemic. The site is laid out in a very logical way, and it's very easy to follow. I love that there are tests along the way to check your knowledge. I first enrolled in AccountingCoach during the depths of the pandemic. I was stuck in a foreign country and couldn't return to the US, so I started to look for skills I could use to build an income. I chose bookkeeping and stumbled upon AccountingCoach. In a matter of weeks, I went from knowing nothing, to freelancing for clients. Later, I started a business and was able to handle all of my own books thanks to what I learned from AccountingCoach. After selling that business, I started helping others buy and sell their businesses as a business broker. Reading and understanding financial statements is an essential skill in this line of work. It is not a stretch to say that AccountingCoach is the highest ROI investment into my education that I have ever made!" - Ross Z.
