We can’t wait to meet you!About Donna Sovie:I founded Check & Balance Business Solutions in January 2020 to relieve the stress and frustration business owners have with managing their accounting records. Accurate financial records are vital to the growth and stability of your business. Without a skilled accountant to give you sufficient insight and data, your company could be at significant risk. Unfortunately, many business owners only realize this when it’s too late. Tired of watching businesses muddle through, I decided the best way I could serve clients is to take accounting and finance off their plate. My 20+ years of diverse accounting experience combined with my education have provided me with detailed knowledge of the accounting and operations process and how each plays a role in affecting bottom-line results. Today, my mission is to help businesses continue to be profitable and remain compliant while allowing owners to focus on growing and doting on their passions.Check & Balance Business Solutions

My husband, Bill, and I are the artisans behind gJoolz Gifts. We create distinctive client and business thank you gifts that will set you apart from the crowd. A little bit about how it all began…….I started making hand-made items for sale as a 10-year old girl, where I created customized mice finger puppets and other artisan craft items for sale at a local consignment shop. In 2008, I decided to turn a jewelry hobby into a business and founded Gail Zona Jewelry making one-of-a-kind glass and sterling jewelry. In the fall of 2012, a friend asked me for a custom order for her daughter’s cheerleading banquet. The jewelry was a big hit and School Joolz ™, was born, creating personalized jewelry for schools and teams. Fast forward to the spring of 2018 when a different friend suggested I turn my pretty glass charms into a wine charm gift. Then wine stoppers, then wine coasters, then cheese boards and soon I was pulling in my husband, Bill, to help with the woodworking angle. gJoolz™ corporate gifts had arrived! That has expanded beyond our expectations, so in the summer of 2021, we pulled Bill in full time to help with both woodworking and sales. We are now gJoolz Gifts™ and working with businesses across the nation, supplying high-quality gifts all made in our Amesbury studio. You can see our work on our website, at www.gJoolz.com, and in our studio at 6 Chestnut St, in Amesbury, MA.
