DNEP Accounting Consulting (aka, Free Accounting Fridays)
Free Accounting Fridays is a way for Detroit business owners to get free one-on-one assistance with the most important (and challenging) part of running a business—getting your financials in order!
If you have questions about how to set up and use your accounting software, prepare and interpret your business’ financial statements, or apply for a loan or grant, DNEP’s accounting consultants are a great resource to get one-on-one support. Each Friday, student accounting consultants from the Ross Business School are available for 1:1 coaching, in-person, on-site in Detroit neighborhoods. Students are trained and supervised by our Executives-in-Residence, Paul Steih, CPA (a retired Ernst & Young partner) and Michelle Randall (a retired Schoolcraft faculty member) plus former loan officer (and DNEP program and business development manager) Siobhan Barrett.
Important Notice of Policy Change
We pay our accounting consultants by the hour to be available to only you during your scheduled appointment time. If you cancel or no-show, another business owner loses out on the chance to get their financials in order. Beginning July 22, 2024, business owners who reschedule, cancel, or miss more than one appointment must wait TWO months before rescheduling.
