I found Gina through a Google search, and I’m so glad I did. As a new business owner, I’d originally reached out to another tax person locally in SD. After not hearing back and seeing some negative reviews, I was nervous about what might have happened to my tax info. Gina was happy to connect with me that same day,…

We were both seriously impressed at Gina’s knowledge about specific business tax write offs that we didn’t even know about. Gina’s knowledge of Quickbooks was great. She taught us how to become more streamlined & efficient. We’re looking forward to working together in the future. Thank you, Gina 💜👨🏻‍🤝‍👨🏼 -The Joshes

As a new first time business owner trying to navigate the ins and outs of the business/finance/taxes— I was so in over my head and deeply overwhelmed. I consulted a handful of other accountants before Gina and they were all either condescending or made me feel uncomfortable. After meeting and working with Gina, I…

I heard about Gina at Love’s Accounting several months ago, but like a lot of people starting a business for the first time, I spent a little too long overthinking the bookkeeping and business structure side of things before finally setting up a consultation. Knowing what I know now, I wish I wouldn’t have waited so…

This was our first contact, and yes... I can tell she knows what she's doing. I was very pleased with her handling of information, her command on platforms like quickbooks, etc. I'm signing in for her services. Today was a free of charge interview.

How we grade

Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.

Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.

Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.

Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.

Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
