“CBS took a very stressful situation and turned it into a great experience…”

Staffing nightmares? Accounting headaches?
Or just too much work and not enough time or staff?
About CBS
Complete Business Solutions is about bringing our clients a positive outsourcing experience for their bookkeeping and administrative needs. We are experienced professionals who really love what we do and we strongly believe that small and mid-size businesses gain far more benefits from having experienced financial, human resources and administrative expertise than larger companies who actually can afford to have this experience on staff. We know that strong financial decision making, solid staff and the ability to retain that staff are key to small and mid-size business growth.
The CBS mission is to provide each of our clients with the same exceptional service that we would expect for ourselves.
About the people
Crystal and Cheryl's partnership began when they worked together as department managers for a multi-million dollar mid-size company for a number of years. It was through their experience working together as a team and ultimately sharing their own bad experience of payroll and human resources outsourcing that the idea for Complete Business Solutions was born. They knew they could provide a better outsourcing experience. Crystal and Cheryl are excited to offer their expertise to businesses who simply can’t afford to have individuals on staff with their experience. They have solutions at affordable fixed monthly rates that eliminate any worry of surprise costs.

“Her many competencies enabled her to cover the workload formerly assigned to three employees, and she diligently worked with a sunny, professional demeanor. That she now has her own business does not surprise me. Any company fortunate enough to discover her will be more than pleased.”

Crystal didn't take shortcuts and was always on top of industry best-practices. If I ever need any accounting advice or service she'll be the first I go to!”

Despite juggling complicated accounting software and other company systems and headaches, Crystal always made sure the financial information she gives to other managers was correct 100% of the time. I’m confident Crystal will be a huge asset for any organization or endeavor she undertakes.”
