How The Giersch Group Started
Giersch Group was founded to solve the problems that many small businesses face when it comes to bookkeeping.
The story of the Giersch Group goes back to 2004 when Peter Giersch started Cathedral Consulting Group in his basement in a small suburb north of Milwaukee, WI.
Over the next decade, Cathedral Consulting Group grew into a multimillion-dollar, multi-national firm under the leadership of Peter’s then-partner and CEO of Cathedral Consulting, Phil Clements. After Clements’ passing in 2015, Peter withdrew from the firm he co-founded and started the Giersch Group to carry on the tradition of excellence in consulting for small businesses and grassroots nonprofits.

Every person who works at the Giersch Group has a passion for small enterprise, and many of us come from families of entrepreneurs and/or family businesses. We take pride in providing affordable professional services for Milwaukee area business owners and nonprofit managers.
While there is a place in this world for institutions and corporations, it is the small business owner or non-profit volunteer who is our hero. It is our pleasure to support the free market and the entrepreneurial spirit by using the best corporate and institutional practices adapted for the small enterprise.
Effective planning starts with knowing the numbers and making decisions based on them. Our bookkeeping, virtual CFO and board services are how we do this, and are at the heart of what we do. Basic human resources tools, accounting software setup, marketing & sales support, grant writing and fundraising are other specialties we offer our clients.
Countless studies show that there is no correlation between money and happiness; those who are wealthy are not necessarily happier than those who have less money, and vice versa. According to theWashington Post, once people surpass the level of poverty, money does not play a great role in day-to-day happiness. Yes, money can buy goods and services that bring temporary enjoyment, but these things do not directly address, let alone fix, the troubles people experience in their daily lives.
If money only provides temporary enjoyment, then what’s the key to happiness? According to a study at the Universityof California Berkeley,havinghigherquality of relationships has a greater impact on one’s quality of life and their overall happiness. By focusing on the well-being of others, people who are compassionate, generous, and generally cooperative have greater relationshipsbetweentheir colleagues, clients, family, and friends.
