Effective December 1, 2015, Mike Eddy (managing partner of Eddy & Eddy, who has been with the firm since 1987) will become our 11th partner, and three CPAs (Coleen Lyon, Laura Hoover, and Barbara Morgan) and two staff members (Jane Steck and Pam Johnson) will also be joining BCS. By the end of the year, BCS will have nearly 50 CPAs and around 100 total staff.

“We are excited to welcome Mike Eddy, the firm’s employees and clients to BCS. With the additional expertise of Mike and his staff, we will be able to significantly expand our Small Business Services Department. Mike is highly respected in the community, and has a reputation for personal service. That’s why we are pleased to announce Mike will be the partner-in-charge of our Small Business Services Department,” said Tommy Greer, managing partner of BCS.

“BCS is a great fit for us and our clients, and we have enjoyed a symbiotic relationship for many years. They have a reputation for quality and timely client service and for placing high emphasis on family, church and community involvement,” said Mike Eddy. “BCS made it a point to invest in personnel, technology and training, and we have a long-range plan to make the most of that and grow the Small Business Services segment.”

“Small Business is the lifeblood of the firm long-term. We give every client quality service, regardless of size, and typically they grow into some of our best clients,” said Tommy. “Our next step is into the cloud, and we’re excited that an increasing number of clients have chosen to take advantage of our online offerings, like QuickBooks Online. It’s more efficient, and we are all looking at current numbers, rather than history.”
