John Q. Magazinereader minds his business. He does his job well. He takes care of his family. He carries himself with dignity and grace, and makes a positive impact wherever he goes. He might even be somewhat like you.
Unfortunately for Magazinereader, he lives in a perplexing reality: where the government knows how much taxes he owes, and how little he can get away with paying, and won’t tell him. Unless he successfully navigates intentionally Byzantine tax code, Magazinereader is up the proverbial creek with only a teaspoon.
Picture this. Magazinereader’s little house in Eden Prairie is surrounded by the infamous “Dirty Tax Boys” gang. Just as all hope seems lost, a solitary figure appears on the horizon. Could it be? Yes, it is! It’s Sherriff JH & Associates, here to give the Dirty Tax Boys a taste of skilled accountancy.

And the day is saved thanks to Sheriff JH & Associates! “Can I ever repay you, kind stranger?” Magazinereader asks the brave lawman (who, just to be clear, represents an accounting firm). “Yessir,” replies Sheriff JH & Associates. “And my rates are … quite reasonable.” He tips his hat, and rides off into the sunset back to his office in Shakopee.
“I’ve spent the entirety of my career in corporate accounting, with a focus on manufacturing and some personal tax assistance on the side,” said Jme Hogenson, who founded JH & Associates one year ago this February. “I purchased an Erbert & Gerbert's franchise around three years ago, just before my son was born, which I previously operated alongside my wife. It seemed after a point that she wanted me to get out of her hair, so I decided to turn my original passion into my next business venture.
“I discovered Thomas S Nesvig & Associates, a well-established accounting firm in Shakopee, through Murphy Business of Minnesota. Tom built an excellent business over the past 20 years or so. He was eager to show me the ropes, and still regularly returns to the office to ensure a seamless transition of ownership.
“At present, about 600 of JH & Associates’ clients are individuals. Around one-tenth as many are LLCs, S corps and partnerships, with a few trusts thrown in for good measure. I’m looking forward to serving many more clients like them for all their payroll, bookkeeping and tax prep needs, and expect to hire new team members soon so I can dedicate all my attention to our clients’ most complex challenges.
“I’ve always loved numbers, plain and simple. Accounting lets my mind do what it’s wired best for. The manufacturing sector certainly did test my abilities, but now that I’m focused on the service side of accounting, I’m discovering its biggest reward: giving people total peace of mind that they’re spending as little on taxes as possible.
“I’ve never been so frustrated with the government until I started preparing others’ taxes. So many issues stem from miscommunication, and the IRS has nothing to gain by making things clearer. Giving individuals and small businesses the tools they need to keep more of their money? That brings me the greatest satisfaction; like I’m beating the IRS at its own game.”
