Our Values

At SMG Accounting & Tax Advisors, our work is shaped by deeply held values—both professional and personal. As a family-run firm, we believe strong businesses are built the same way strong families are: with honesty, hard work, clear communication, and a long-term commitment to doing what's right.

Our faith in the Lord guides how we approach our work and how we treat people. We believe there is wisdom in pursuing steady, thoughtful progress over constant striving—and in valuing clarity and peace over complexity and excess. While we are not perfect, we aim to serve with humility, integrity, and care.

Honesty, Integrity, and Accountability

We believe trust begins with honesty—and is sustained by accountability. That means being transparent, giving clear guidance, and communicating openly. It also means acknowledging when mistakes happen. If we make one, we will own it, address it promptly, and work diligently to make it right.

Integrity isn't about perfection. It's about responsibility and follow-through.

Stewardship Over Striving

We believe financial work is a form of stewardship. Rather than chasing more for the sake of more, we focus on helping clients build stability, clarity, and peace of mind. There is wisdom in knowing when enough is enough—and in building businesses that are healthy, sustainable, and well-understood, not just busy.

That perspective shapes how we advise clients, how we pace our work, and how we measure success.

Knowing Your Numbers

Clear decisions require clear understanding. We believe business owners should truly know the condition of their finances—not just glance at reports once a year. Clean books, accurate reporting, and consistent review provide the insight needed to lead confidently and responsibly.

Our role is to help clients understand their numbers, not overwhelm them with them—so decisions are made with clarity, not guesswork.

Family, Faith, and a Long-Term View

SMG Accounting & Tax Advisors is a family endeavor in the truest sense. Scott's wife, Andrea, works alongside him in the practice, and together they are raising their children with the belief that faith, consistency, and care matter—in business and in life.

We approach client relationships with that same long-term mindset. We are not focused on short-term wins or quick fixes, but on helping clients build businesses that support their families, values, and future.

How Our Values Shape Our Pricing

Our pricing reflects our values. We use flat, transparent pricing because we believe it supports trust, stewardship, and clarity. No surprise invoices. No incentive to overwork or overcomplicate. Just clear expectations aligned with the level of service and experience provided.

This allows us to focus on thoughtful, well-paced work—rather than constant urgency or unnecessary complexity.
