William G. Cleope
William helps individuals and small businesses save in taxes, comply with the rules, and make better money decisions with clear, up-to-date financials. He combines accurate tax filing with smart planning to find deductions and credits, choose the best business setup, and plan your estimated payments—so you keep more money and avoid penalties or surprises.
If QuickBooks is messy or you’re starting fresh, he sets up a smart chart of accounts, automates bank feeds and rules, and cleans up past data to prevent errors and save hours each month.
Bottom line: more clarity, less time wasted, and better results all year.
Mark A Cleope
I use my media, accounting, and business skills to help you communicate clearly, keep accurate books, and make smart, market-driven decisions. I apply communication best practices to create clear reports and presentations, handle full-cycle bookkeeping to keep you compliant, and use marketing tools to understand your audience, position your offers, and drive growth.
I work with Microsoft Office, SAP, Adobe Creative Cloud, Salesforce, QuickBooks, and Drake Software. At The Accounting Group, I manage client accounting—reconciling bank accounts, preparing taxes, and overseeing daily operations—so you get timely, accurate financials.
We pride ourselves on building strong relationships with our clients, understanding their unique circumstances, and delivering proactive advice to help them succeed.
