CGI Renders have fast become the solution for marketing off-the-plan properties - helping potential buyers visualize what the finished build will look like while the foundations are being laid.

From considering the lighting source, angles, textures, materials, and background, to checking the edges and making sure there aren't any unrealistic shadows - an expert eye is vital in presenting professional marketing. In this seminar, we discuss some of the most common problems we see in renders and how to avoid them when marketing your property and help to fetch that higher sale price.

I am Shannon M. Sheridan, MSA, EA, NTPI Fellow, PFP. I am the owner of Eclipse Account and Tax but my most important role is mother of three beautiful children. I have lived in the greater Tampa area since 2006 and have been in the tax and accounting field since 1998. Eclipse Accounting decided to specialize in trades and contractors as we saw a need to help them with advisory services. Our firm offers Tax Strategy, Tax planning, Individual and Business Tax Preparation, Sales and Use Tax, Bookkeeping, IRS Audit Representation, Budgeting, Finance Coaching, QuickBooks Training and Integration and Profit First Business Advisory. We use our expertise to lead our team to achieve client’s goals, visions and to make an impact in my community. I opened the company in 2010 and have an office located in Palm Harbor, Florida. I’ve worked for several CPA’s over the years, large tax chains, Merrill Lynch, and Bank of America tax division and what I found is business owners need more specialized services to help them make better decisions. The biggest complaint from new clients about other firms is lack of communication and we have real time communication to help with that in our workflow software.
What makes us different from other firms is that we do real time data meaning we input transactions daily so clients can make real time decisions. We also utilize technology to help clients maximize time and efficiency so they can get back to business rather than wasting so much time on administrative and office tasks. In May 2021 we began offering CFO advisory services, focusing on profit first, as we found there was a huge need for guidance to make better money decisions for business owners rather than only doing data entry and just producing financial statements. The profit first model is Income – Profit = Expenses. This allows businesses to save up for the unexpected, cut out unnecessary costs as well as cut taxes through tax strategy and save for taxes so the business pays the owners taxes, and make sure the owners get paid regularly and have quarterly distributions. At Eclipse Accounting you are not just another number. Our mission is to passionately build and service dreams by letting clients do what they are good at and we handle this side of their business.
In my spare time, I love to travel with my kids, the outdoors, painting on canvas, I enjoy running 5ks (actually I just like the medals), I’ve competed in fitness competitions to push myself to be the best me I can be for my family, my clients, and my kids. When I am not helping clients I also enjoy going blueberry picking, visiting the beach, fishing, crafts, painting, and board games.
Shannon has a Masters of Science in Accountancy, licensed by the US Treasury Dept. as an Enrolled Agent, QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor, NTPI Fellow (IRS representation credential), Profit First Professional (PFP), Certified Life Documents Organizer, Accredited Member of the National Association of Tax Preparers (NATP) and the National Association of Enrolled Agents (NAEA) Florida Society of enrolled agents Suncoast chapter (Past President and Past Vice President).

Construction Schedule Updating: What is my percent complete, anyway?
9:30 a.m.-10:30 a.m. |
Contractors have to update the projects’ schedules periodically. This update is so important not only because it provides the contractor and the owner with an idea of where the project stands at this point, but also because progress payments from the owner to the contractor depend on information in these updates, specifically amount of work performed this period on each activity. This amount of work is usually expressed in percent complete. However, there are many types of percent complete, based on physical estimates (units), cost, time, manhours, or other. It is also important to calculate both baseline and actual percent complete for the activity, in order to determine if work is on, ahead, or behind schedule. This seminar takes a quick look at different types of percent complete, explains them, and discusses what they represent and when to use them.

Creating and implementing your tech stack to propel your profits and stand out from your competition
Target Audience: All building and construction professionals
I am Shannon M. Sheridan, MSA, EA, NTPI Fellow, PFP. I am the owner of Eclipse Account and Tax but my most important role is mother of three beautiful children. I have lived in the greater Tampa area since 2006 and have been in the tax and accounting field since 1998. Eclipse Accounting decided to specialize in trades and contractors as we saw a need to help them with advisory services. Our firm offers Tax Strategy, Tax planning, Individual and Business Tax Preparation, Sales and Use Tax, Bookkeeping, IRS Audit Representation, Budgeting, Finance Coaching, QuickBooks Training and Integration and Profit First Business Advisory. We use our expertise to lead our team to achieve client’s goals, visions and to make an impact in my community. I opened the company in 2010 and have an office located in Palm Harbor, Florida. I’ve worked for several CPA’s over the years, large tax chains, Merrill Lynch, and Bank of America tax division and what I found is business owners need more specialized services to help them make better decisions. The biggest complaint from new clients about other firms is lack of communication and we have real time communication to help with that in our workflow software.
What makes us different from other firms is that we do real time data meaning we input transactions daily so clients can make real time decisions. We also utilize technology to help clients maximize time and efficiency so they can get back to business rather than wasting so much time on administrative and office tasks. In May 2021 we began offering CFO advisory services, focusing on profit first, as we found there was a huge need for guidance to make better money decisions for business owners rather than only doing data entry and just producing financial statements. The profit first model is Income – Profit = Expenses. This allows businesses to save up for the unexpected, cut out unnecessary costs as well as cut taxes through tax strategy and save for taxes so the business pays the owners taxes, and make sure the owners get paid regularly and have quarterly distributions. At Eclipse Accounting you are not just another number. Our mission is to passionately build and service dreams by letting clients do what they are good at and we handle this side of their business.
In my spare time, I love to travel with my kids, the outdoors, painting on canvas, I enjoy running 5ks (actually I just like the medals), I’ve competed in fitness competitions to push myself to be the best me I can be for my family, my clients, and my kids. When I am not helping clients I also enjoy going blueberry picking, visiting the beach, fishing, crafts, painting, and board games.
Shannon has a Masters of Science in Accountancy, licensed by the US Treasury Dept. as an Enrolled Agent, QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor, NTPI Fellow (IRS representation credential), Profit First Professional (PFP), Certified Life Documents Organizer, Accredited Member of the National Association of Tax Preparers (NATP) and the National Association of Enrolled Agents (NAEA) Florida Society of enrolled agents Suncoast chapter (Past President and Past Vice President).
Solar – What You Need to Know as a Construction or Design Professional
9:30 a.m.-10:30 a.m. | Room 302A
CEO | Goldin Solar
Solar is a unique trade in the construction world, and can be very different from other more typical construction trades. In addition, the solar contractor typically plays a stronger role in design, and consultation with the designers of the ground up construction project due to the fact that it is a relatively new industry and MEP engineers are less familiar with particular solar design considerations. For that reason, timing of onboarding a solar installer is crucial to avoid rework in both design, and construction work performed. This talk will explore important considerations for architects, MEP engineers and General Contractors and how to interface with solar professionals during the project delivery process.
Target Audience: Architects, MEP engineers and General Contractors
