SINGLETRACK BUSINESS CONSULTING

Kim founded Singletrack Accounting in May of 2006 after over 21 years in her first career working for a major airline. After traveling much of the world she left the rat race for the mountains…and life as an entrepreneur. Over the last 20 years she has started, built, sold, administered and operated numerous Small Businesses across various industries.

Kim led Singletrack to explosive growth and popularity with Small Business Owners, even through the difficult economic crisis of 2008 and beyond. She offered something different; boutique Small Business Bookkeeping & support leveraging modern technology in order to deliver low-cost fixed pricing, packages specifically geared to Small & Micro Business owners.

In 2016, in only the second year of the program, Singletrack was selected during a world wide search by the makers of QuickBooks as one of 19 “Global Firms of the Future”. A huge accomplishment for a small online business headquartered deep in the Rocky Mountains.

From the start, Singletrack was intended to be a 100% virtual business. It took great effort in the early days, well before cloud based businesses were the norm. Kim was able to create and implement imaginative software integrations that allowed for online delivery of all services. She was one of the first QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisors (she was the second!). Even the Singletrack staff is virtual and location neutral, a seamlessly managed utterly paperless Team.

Kim’s obsession with extreme efficiency in workflow is the platform that has enabled Singletrack – and many other businesses on which Kim has advised – to scale and spend less time serving more customers. Her belief is that process is the key to business owner work-life balance, health, happy customers, and financial stability.

Even in the corporate world, Kim’s first position was managing payroll for the customer service division of a major Airline at Chicago’s O’hare airport. She has worked in payroll on and off for the entirety of her career. She is an absolute expert in all things payroll and payroll tax; and oversees payroll accounts with activity across dozens of states.

Kim’s experience in Small Business runs the gamut. From Accounting principles to Business Structures to Tax Reduction Strategies she has aggressively amassed vast knowledge through education, experience, and her own mentors and teachers. Over the last few years she has written many blogs, whitepapers and eBooks on topics such as selecting the proper taxing structure for your business, how to convert your business S-Corp, tax deductions, marketing for small business, productivity apps, niche industry accounting, proper QuickBooks Online usage, 1099s, and more. She is an expert in many software platforms including QuickBooks Online, Mailchimp, Zapier, Practice Ignition, Karbon HQ, Camtasia, WordPress, Adobe, Google G Suite products, is Hubdoc Certified and is a Certified TSheets PRO.

Today, Singletrack has served hundreds of customers in over 30 states as well as several international operations. Kim’s current mission is educating Small & Micro Business owners about the invaluable benefits of Tax Planning. “Every Small Business owner deserves to have awareness of and access to the same legal and widely available tax reduction strategies that large businesses take advantage of every day”.

Kim is based out of Steamboat Springs, CO enjoying many activities in the great outdoors and still traveling the world as much as she can. Heavily involved in the community, she served for many years as a Board member & event organizer for the Tour de Steamboat annual charity ride,  and as a Founding Board member with the Yampa Valley Sustainability Council.
