Grant Bennett Associates

This box represents a #challenge your #business is having right now. How many boxes do you see? Many challenges are easy to solve and some are not. Many are visible to everyone and others, not so much.... One way to #solve challenges in business is to break up each challenge into different, smaller challenges and solve the smaller ones first. However, frequently only the challenges that are easy to identify are solved; leaving the few, less visible ones to fester and continue to grow. Some people will see 16, or perhaps even 17 (if they counted the square which contains the smaller ones), squares; others will see more, and a few will see all 30. Being able to identify the difficult challenges and solving them will help your business overcome its challenges and continue in the right direction, up. The difficult part is seeing what everyone else doesn't see.

This year we were able to help spruce-up the Sacramento Children's Home, Cowell Center by adding a fresh coat of paint to its walls.

I am looking forward to this conference. It will set a record for attendance for the entire history of the Alliott Group.

We have just learned someone is mailing checks out from BENNETT ASSOCIATES LLC with our firm address. This is a fraud and a scam . These are NOT from our firm. These scammers apparently call you to get their money back which was sent "in error" and in the meantime their checks bounce. Our firm name is Grant Bennett Associates, A Professional Corporation. We are not an LLC and in fact California law prohibits CPA's from forming an LLC due to liability issues. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!

We are happy to be apart of such a great worldwide association. Alliott Group: with over 160 accounting and law firm members in some 70 countries on every continent. http://www.alliottgroup.net/

One of the many benefits of working with so many Not-for-Profit organizations is being able to participate in their annual fundraising golf tournaments. This year we were happy to be able to play alongside the many people who help support Mission Solano. #driveawayhunger Bryan, Frederick, Hirvin, Ty

Another annual Grant Bennett Associates team appreciation day is in the books. This year we were pleased to be able to sail around the bay on the sailboat, Cat Ballou. We shoved-off from the picturesque town of Sausalito and did what they called the "three bridge route". Click to see our route and some more pictures from the day.
