"I am currently managing a family business in Thailand, which mainly concerns the import and export of frozen seafood. I became a PRO user after going through the first few chapters and finding the material to be comprehensive, answering all the questions I had as I read along and even the ones I didn't know I had. I like how detailed the material is, while still being digestible and not too time consuming. The examples later on encourage me to think about each problem as an accountant would based on what I've learnt. Since reading the first 10 chapters, I now already have an easier time making sense of financial statements issued within the company, to the point where I was able to help my accountant make decisions about how we should manage certain situations regarding intricacies of the factory. I wanted to thank AccountingCoach and the team responsible for putting this great content together as it has had a very positive impact on my life and career, and helped me make decisions with more competency and confidence." - Shahzil Y.
