Eclat Enterprises

What Eclat Enterprises does

Éclat Enterprises, LLC is a privately-held accounting, tax, and business consulting firm founded in August 2011 by Jeneen R. Perkins and headquartered in Butler, Wisconsin. The firm serves small and mid-sized businesses, self-employed individuals, freelancers, real estate investors, and the LGBTQ community, delivering services both in-person (Southeast Wisconsin) and virtually across all 50 states. Core offerings span monthly bookkeeping and accounting, federal/state tax preparation, QuickBooks setup and training, business consulting, and a specialized LGBTQ tax practice addressing DOMA-repeal amended returns and related estate/trust work.

The firm operates on a CountingWorks PRO technology stack with a ClientHub client portal, secure document transmission, and Calendly-based scheduling, alongside QuickBooks Online Pro Advisor expertise and Xero support. It does not build or own proprietary software; technology is delivered through partner platforms rather than developed in-house. The delivery model is sales-led and community-led, supplemented by a SCORE mentorship role that generates top-of-funnel trust among entrepreneurs.

Monetization is split between recurring monthly subscription packages (Bronze $700+/mo, Silver $1,500+/mo, Gold $2,500+/mo, Platinum custom, tied to client annual revenue bands up to ~$5M) and project-based fees for tax preparation, freelance consulting, and QuickBooks services, with a 50% retainer and ACH authorization required before engagement begins. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; ownership remains entirely with the founder and no institutional capital, acquisitions, or funding rounds are recorded in the available data.
