Accountant saves the day

February 11, 2025

Samantha’s high, variable-interest rate bank loan wasn’t great for her women-owned business. Her accountant, Tricia Seil, the owner of Healthy Accounting, another women-owned business suggested a new and better style of business. Tricia recommended The Progress Fund and Samanatha now has what she needed. A far lower interest rate and shorter loan term that still shaved $670 off her monthly payment.

Samantha and her team approach all their clients with one-to-one attention. Each cut, color service, and style reflect the unique personality and lifestyle needs of the client.

She found the same level-of-service with the committed staff of The Progress Fund where we, too, strive to build and maintain lasting relationships with our clients. We aren’t captivated by all the new trends and fashions in business, but our focus on the profitability of our customers never goes out of style.
