    I love spreadsheets!  And I love helping people use them more efficiently.

    After working with me, other local businesspeople are saying:

    “What I really like about using the spreadsheet that Grant made for me is that it saves me about 2 hours every month.” Marilyn Bardell, Futurisk.

    “Grant added a lot of value to a complex spreadsheet we had developed. It’s now beautiful and he has saved us considerable time each week by making it much easier to use and more automated.” Steve Davey, ABC Business Sales.

    “The spreadsheet solution Grant created for us does exactly what we wanted it to. It is more accurate than our previous system.” Anais Thorne, CR Law.

    “I found Grant was able to understand what the problems were and typically had a number of suggestions to address it.” Ron Schalkwijk, Ron Schalkwijk Consulting.
