Stay far away... If you're a creator, stay far away from Collective. Their service is unreliable, and it's impossible to get ahold of one person who is actually able to get anything done. During sales calls, I was promised their tax service would be prompt. I gave them everything they needed mid-Jan and explained I was pregnant (due Apr 1st), so I needed my business tax return ASAP. I was promised it would be prioritized. Instead, it's been over a month, I've been passed around to about a dozen different people, and I still have yet to receive anything I need. Communication is slow. Their dashboard is buggy and annoying to use. I've also received emails from them with other business financial data, so their privacy and security are also major concerns. As a business owner, I don't like having my time wasted. The whole point of turning to this service was to save me time. Instead, I've quadrupled the number of hours I'm spending on the financial side of things because I have to waste so much time chasing them to get anything done. All in all, just a terrible experience, and I wish I'd never used them.

It doesn't get easier than this Collective is a lifesaver for my small business. If you've ever found yourself confused or intimidated by taxes, payroll or your decision to go full-monty on the LLC/S-Corp designation, Collective is the partner you're looking for. They'll hold your hand from start to finish, and their dashboard tools make everything seamless. It's worth every penny, I swear!

Take a load off The most valuable partners are the ones who take a part of my business that feels extremely important completely off my mind. And that is exactly what the whole team at Collective do for me. Taxes, payroll, general bookkeeping, and expenses completely off my shoulders and never keeping me awake at night?! Yes please.

Collective Handles the Hard Stuff Collective handles all the difficult bookkeeping and payroll aspects of running your own business and they do it while saving you tons on your taxes. You're paired with real people who genuinely care about your success and that, in and of itself, makes the cost worth it over and over again.

Highly recommend Collective for creative small businesses! Collective has helped get my business in shape with LLC filing, taxes, bookkeeping and more (like payroll!). They always keep me updated on deadlines and organized with their portal.
