Veronica Sagastume is an ex-corporate CFO turned content marketing strategist with a passion for helping accounting, bookkeeping, and tax business owners create content to increase their visibility on social media and grow their business online.

 

After a 20 year corporate career as an accounting and finance executive in Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, Veronica faced a personal life event which led her to make the bold decision to trade her corner office for a home office.

 

In 2011, Veronica left her CFO position to start her own consulting practice to work with startup companies as their business consultant. Fueled by her experience, Veronica skyrocketed her practice to quick success.

 

In 2016, she ventured online to help other accounting, finance, and tax business owners learn how to show up online with a strong content marketing strategy to attract and connect with clients. Helping them to show up like the experts they are, make a greater impact, increase their online visibility, and grow their business online is her primary vision and goal! Veronica has built a thriving consulting and coaching business from the comfort of her own home and is excited to share her journey.
