Feature Story for Michelle Roseberry and HBK!

When it comes to advising manufacturing and construction companies on their financial operations, Columbus businesses have been turning to Michelle Roseberry and her accounting firm, HBK CPAs & Consultants. Michelle, a Columbus native and graduate of Capital University, knows the ropes. She’s been providing accounting services to local manufacturers and contractors since earning her CPA credentials in 2000, as a corporate accounting executive as well as a public accountant.

“We cater to closely held business in those industries,” Michelle explained. “We have the expertise, including Six Sigma-certified professionals, to deliver the financial might they need to run efficiently and make smart business decisions proactively.

HBK is the nations 46t largest accounting firm, specializing in providing small to mid-market businesses and their owners and operators a wide range of financial solutions, including accounting, tax, and audit services; business consulting; forensic accounting; litigation support services; and a Top 100 wealth management firm.

“We’re a small, personal, local office,” she noted. “but I have an incredible amount of resources to work with.”


To be competitive and relevant in today’s markets, small and mid-size businesses need a wide range of financial support from their CPA firm, more than the traditional role of completing the company tax return. Consider how Michelle and HBK saved a manufacturer more than $2 million by switching their accounting method or helped a contractor find and capitalize on industry tax credits.

Michelle and her Columbus staff have helped owners selling their businesses with due diligence. They have helped buyers by examining financial statements to determine the company’s strengths and where there might be weaknesses.

“And we help companies tighten up their operations to save money so they can use those resources more productively. Valuation, IT support, cybersecurity protection: I have a network of nearly 600 professionals within HBK to address their finances comprehensively.”

 

In addition to being a CPA, Michelle has also earned designation as Chartered Global Management Accountant (CGMA), signalling her “advanced proficiency in finance, operations, strategy, and management.” She has also earned the designation of Construction Industry Technician (CIT).

“Working with an accounting firm with experience in your industry is extremely important,” Michelle said. “We have teams of professionals with deep industry experience dedicated to those industries in our Construction and Manufacturing Solution groups. We understand what they’re going through, and we can help them get where they want to go.”
