quick HIGHLIGHTS
Janine Makel is an Accounting Manager at Milestone Integrated Marketing- a full-service marketing firm in Ontario, Canada.
At Milestone, Janine is responsible for full-cycle accounting. She does everything from AR, AP, to month end, year-end processes.
Before she joined Milestone, Janine used a range of industry software and found that there was always a disconnect between the accounting side and the industry side. She found that the accounting side was like an afterthought and what was needed for reports wasn’t always available.
Milestone, on the other hand, has been using Workamajig for over 25 years.
In Janine’s words, “Workamajig helps us because we can see not only profitability on projects, but we can also see an overview of client profitability.
It’s also great in the WIP reporting because we can see profitability on projects but we can also see an overview of client profitability.”
Janine shares what she loves most about Workamajig:
“The thing that I love the most is one little checkbox that we’ll check to put taxes on every single invoice so that I no longer have to go in line by line and add tax, which was quite a hassle.
I also love how Workamajig allowed us to pivot when we needed to and still thrive.”

My name is Janine Mikel, I am the accounting manager at Milestone integrated marketing and we are located just outside of Toronto Ontario Canada.
At Milestone Marketing we are a full-service marketing firm for all client types. As the accounting manager at Milestone, my responsibilities are full-cycle accounting. I do everything from AR/AP to month-end and year-end processes.
Prior to Milestone I used a number of Industry specific software and found that there was always a disconnect between the accounting side and then the industry side where the accounting side was kind of an afterthought and what we needed for reports weren't always available for what we needed.
Milestone has been using Workamajig for over 25 years Workamajig helps us because we can see, not only profitability on projects but we can also see an overview of client profitability. It's also great in the whip reporting where we can see how long things have been in WIP, what is in WIP, and get an idea of projects that we need to be pushing to close and wrap up.
The thing that I love the best about Workamajig is how there is one little check box that will check to put taxes on every single invoice so that I no longer have to go in line by line and add tax which was quite a hassle I love the fact that Workamajig allowed our agency to pivot when we needed to be able to complete our task and still thrive thank you.
