Craig Kershaw, CPA, MBA is the managing partner of The CFO Source, a Baltimore based consulting firm that provides senior level financial expertise to small and medium size businesses. With over 20 years of experience at the CFO and Controller level in transportation, construction, and service industries, he has worked with medium size businesses and Fortune 500 corporations, demonstrating excellence across the full range of financial management responsibilities—financing, treasury, accounting, risk management, information technology, and QuickBooks training. Craig is experienced in all levels of financial and accounting software, from QuickBooks to custom systems used in multi-billion dollar operations. A Certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor since 2009, Mr. Kershaw has helped numerous clients set up, trouble shoot, and fine tune their accounting. He teaches continuing professional education courses to members of the Maryland Association of CPAs using his QuickBooks series, and regularly contributes articles on QuickBooks functionality for the Maryland Construction Networks Networked and Connected newsletter. The CFO Source provides services to clients in the construction and contracting business, and the firm’s guidance in their financial matters empowers them to more efficiently and effectively track job costs and profitability, manage backlog, improve estimating processes, and produce accurate financial statements. The CFO Source’s clients receive training for tracking estimated costs versus actual, properly billing and collecting contract revenues, preparing percentage of completion information their lenders and sureties require, and worker’s compensation reporting. Craig’s QuickBooks training series began as “how to” instructions for clients wanting to record specific transactions. In many cases, the guidance could not be found in more basic manuals. The growing list of real user “how to” solutions has developed into a series of books, allowing users to learn the breadth and scope of QuickBooks capabilities.
