      <image:caption>“I have been with Giffin Bookkeeping for a year or so. I can honestly say I can now sleep at night knowing payroll taxes are paid on time and employees’ paychecks are direct deposited every Friday. Since hiring Melina and Giffin Bookkeeping, I am able to take care of business and do what I do best. I now have time to schedule new and prospective customers for their electrical needs. I said it before and I’ll say it again, Melina is the best and a Godsend. She keeps my books in order, and I really need her in my business!”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - Joseph Says…</image:title>
      <image:caption>“We engaged with Giffin Bookkeeping when developing and starting-up our new restaurant - Tepache Mexican Kitchen and Bar. Working with Melina in those challenging start-up days (which were even more difficult due to the pandemic and labor shortage) made our job as business owners so much easier. She helped us with many areas that a start-up restaurant needed including federal, state and local accounting / bookkeeping requirements. Giffin Bookkeeping is highly recommended due to the responsiveness, attention to detail and extra effort that helped us to have a successful restaurant business start-up.”</image:caption>
